HOPE Of DISABLED IS
VOCATIONAL TRAINING

Washington, Feb. 20.-"There is
no mystery about the work Of re-
training war disabled men. so as
to make them efficient today" de-
clared DR.. Chas. A. Prosser, director
OF the federal board for vocational
education. ''It is simply the appli-
cation OF good common sense edu-
cation and good judgment. 1t is
merely the utilization Of the abili-
ties remaining to the disabled man,
which can be so trained as in most
cases to be Just as effective IL not
more so, than the ones which he
lost by reason of his injuries.
''It is surprising the number Of
things man is capable Of doing. II
he has been engaged in an occupa-
tion which requires the use OF his
leg, such as operating foot power
press, we do not throw away his
trade knowledge, but he is educated
to use his hand, or perhaps the
stump Of his leg by means Of spe-
cial adjustment, and can continue
doing that which he knows best just
as well as before he received his in
jury, or IL he is disinclined to con-
tinue that work, he is reeducated for
some other phase of the same indus
try which he knows we'll. and which
appeals to him, thus preserving his
trade knowledge.
This reeducation is given in the
various industries and factories as
well as in the leading technical and
trade schools of the country. 1t is
absolutely free to the disabled man;
II he is single, he is given $65 a
month support fund, all other ex-
penses being paid, and II married
or other are other dependents. a
larger allowance is made.
The federal board for vocational
education is anxious to get in touch
with all disabled, discharged men,
and will gladly correspond with
them about their cases. The ad'
dress is simply Washington. d. c."

WAR LEAVES FRANCE SHORT ON ENGINES
AND CARS --AMER|CA To- FILL Demand

( Paris, France, Feb. 20,--France,
as result OF the war, finds itself
short OF 5000 locomotives and 1907
900 cars, while the transportation
material that is still nominally on
the active list. is badly out of repair.
The shortage of rolling stock has
become very acute lately, for the
number OF locomotives and cars out
of commission for various defects
has increased since July last by 10
and 80 per cent respectively.
To meet the growing difficulties
in the matter of repairs, the state
munition factories at Lyons, Toni
ouse and Roanne have, since the ar
mistice. been turned with all speed
into railway repairing shops. -
The French government has Ions
hesitated to place orders in the Unit
ed States, where alone new rolling
stock could be procured, for fear Of
depressing the French rate Of ex
change unduly, but the country''
needs became so pressing that or
ders have now been given, It is un
derstood, for purchasing 500 loco
motives and $4,000 cars. while 81,
900 American cars that were to hav
been shipped to France for the us
of the American Expeditionar
Force have also been acquired.
| Perhaps the biggest task befor

the restoration of the destroyed
railway tracks in the invaded part
OF France. An army of $4,000
workers will be engaged on this
great work for months. 1t includes
the reconstruction of IA tunnels and
10000 bridges, for which $4,000
tons of metal are required.
In addition, hundreds Of miles of
main and branch lines have been
temporarily borrowed" for milf
tary purposes from elsewhere, and
must now be relaid.
The departments affected have
been divided up into sections, for
each OF which "chief reorganizer'
has been appointed. Each of them
has been required to give an under
taking that he will have his section
in proper working order as regards
transportation, in the course of the
present year.
An appropriation of 10000. .o0(
francs has been made by the gov

panies to purchase rolling stock TO
