 The somewhat chaotic conditions that naturally prevailed when thou sands upon thousands of newcomers flooded into the city from the boats in late June have subsided. Those sta. toned permanently in the port have gradually settled down, in the few ho- teis and in many private families. The officers have established messes for themselves at which they can avail themselves of American food, and the men who are not quartered in the town itself. live at the original camp where General SIbert and his first division stayed until it was time to go to the training camp behind the front.

TO TEACH DISABLED
Australia Recognizes Duty To
Crippled Soldiers.
Subsistence Wages TO- BE Paid Men
While Tney Are Learning
Trades.

Washington.-The manner I'm which
Australia is meeting the problem Of
repatriating the men fighting In Eu-
rope Is described In dispatches to the
bureau Of foreign and domestic conn
merce. Much interest was aroused by
the dispatches, as foreshadowing what
the United States must do when the
tide of disabled men begins to flow
westward
Two principles form the basis Of the
Australian system: First. that the
purpose is to secure the resestahiish-
ment of returned soldiers In the indus
trial life of the community; second,
that as a soldier abandoned his civil
calling to serve the state, 1t is the
duty of the state TO sustain him until
an opportunity for such re-establish-
.ment Is assured.
Subsistence wages will be paid TO
men seeking employment or being
trained In technical schools. The
amounts will vary according to the
number of dependents, the maximum
being f3, 6 shillings, or approximately
$16.50.
A feature Of the vocational training
planned will be national workshops,
wherein men whose injuries preclude
the possibility of their ever becoming
competent to earn their living as nor
NAL workmen will be educated to new
tasks and perhaps employed perma-
nently. The totally and permanently
disabled will be. provided for In hos
tells. or, alternately, by special grants
supplementary to their pensions, If
they prefer to remain with their
friends.
Widows desirous of learning some
useful trade will be afforded the neces-
sary training and sustenanees Ad;
vanees OF money will be made in GER
tain cases for the establishment Of
small businesses for tools and for
transit TO employment.
Australia also Ii following the prac-
tice OF the United States after the civil
war of granting land to returned sol
diers. Major Blezard, who took part
In the historic lanAing at Gallipoli
and was severely wounded, has been
granted 100 acres near Echuca.
