Hike Monthly Pay
of Disabled Men
Taking Training

Monthly compensation allowed dis.
abled soldiers who are taking voca.
tional training here has been raised
from $50 to 500 monthly, according
to a communication just received by
Mrs, Blanche Freeman, executive
secretary of the Grady county Red
Cross chapter, from Henry l.. Holtz
CLAW, OF the Federal Board for Vo-
cational education, Oklahoma City.
The increase in compensation was
allowed after Mrs. Freeman had re.
quested that such action be taken.
She produced evidence that it was
impossible for one person to live
comfortably on an income of $50
per month. Several disabled sol
diers are benefited by tho compen.
satlon increase, Mrs. Freeman says.

You can reclaim two million acres
Of land in any western state for the
