HELPS MEN MAKE
OUT THEIR PAPERS
Disabled Soldiers Assisted to Obtain
Compensation by Federal Board for
Vocational Education.

Washington, May 1.-The question
Of compensation from the War Risk
Insurance bureau is the prime
requisite to be settled first, and upon
this depends the future of the dis
abled man whether he is to receive
the free vocational education the gov
eminent provides. Under the law
and the ruling Of the War Risk In
surance bureau, there must be min
imum Of 10 per cent. disability be-
fore the disabled man can have the
training. The matter of obtaining a.
ruling from the War Risk Insurance
bureau is one which has proved most
confusing to the injured man, and
many cases have come to the attention
of the federal board of where disabled
men have hesitated to make applica
ton for either the compensation or
training on account Of not under
standing the procedure involved
therein.
The Federal Board for Vocational
Education, through its vocational ad-
visers and others Of the staff in each
Of the IA district Offices has realized
that assistance would be greatly well
coined by the disabled men and has
been helping these men to make out
their applications and obtain ruling
from the War Risk Insurance bureau
TO April first, 1908 men have re-
ce1ved this assistance and the claims
nave been filed with the War Risk
insurance bureau. Compensation has
