GREAT PRE-wAR DEMAND FOR TECHNICAL TRAINING


 The greatest demand ever witnessed in this country for technical training is now the final postwar phenomenon. ac-s cording to the Knights of Columbus, Will liam J Mckinley of New York, supreme secretary of the K. of c. and director of their educational organization, states that the requests made on the Knights for ad- mission to their free night schools for former service men are more than double the number received last year. ''We have had to open thirty new schools within three months he stated. i've are accommodating approximately SS, GOO former service men in these schools. and we shall lave to open more schools under the auspices of the K of c. coun- cils in order to care for the men who de sire technical training.
 By far the most popular course is automechanics, because this trains a man for business and pleasure both. But there is an increasing demand for sDe- cial training in the sedentary occupa- l tions--in expert accounting particularly, and we have more than 5000 former ser vice men taking courses in income tax | law and operation.
 1 'Tn New York one of our schools. has become so overcrowded that we have had to open another to take care of the over l flow We had intended to restrict our &C., tiyities everywhere, but instead we find ourselves extending them in order to cope with the demand The K. of c. system is an entirely new growth, part of our employment and general recon struction work The great number of night schools. private and public. added

HOSPITALS MAY BENEFIT
 BY SEIZTRES OF TJor0R

Hospitals may be very popular places to become attached to, now that Thomas J. McAuiiffe, federal enforcement agent or Hartford, nas ruled that surplus liquor that cannot be stored in government warehouses may be sent to the various institutions for medicinal use. Mi. Mc- Auliffe stated that the liquors seized found to be satisfactory beverage will be sold to those agencies which legally buy liquor under the law and the remainder donated to hospitals for use among the sick. While there is nothing definite as
 yet upon which to base that opinion, it is the. general impression among federal men that this course will be taken. 1 There are two warehouses in the state in which liquors are being stored by the l government agents. these being in Bridge port and New Haven. All liquor taken ill l this section of the state is taken to New
 Haven. The warehouse in Bridgeport is ] filled 10 overfiowing. The approximate value of liquor seized and stored n these
 two cities is about s5O0,OOO. according tc
 MT. McAuliffe.
 | When the proper time comes. the seized liquor will be sorted and the pre-war goot l type will be allocated to hospitals and the
 sure death moonshine will be destroyed probably by pouring into the ocean.
