ruary 29, l520, Is accounted TOT as loi- lows:
 Approved for training, 2s61. Tuber- cuiosis cases requiring further sanf- tarium treatment 661. Medical eVi- dence that cases are arrested must be given before training can be obtained.
 Cases requiring further medical care, more complete medical data, or not yet discharged, 1759.
 Returned to employment with train ing completed, 51. Not eligible for training, since disabilities do not con- stitute vocational handicaps, 2369.
 The average disabled service man who is eligible for vocational training has had a sixth grade education. This means, of course, that many have had a second or third grade education. In addition to meagre education. the man is at a serious disadvantage in pur- suing vocational training on account of impaired health. which makes 1t im- possible for him to make rapid prog ress.
 This means, of course, that he must have careful supervision and a good deal of morale work that he may not become discouraged and decide to give up his training.
 Because of meagre education and inn paired health, a long period of training is required to return the average man
 
 employment. That is to say. one years training is hardly sufficient to enable the average man receiving vocational training to qualify for employment. The federal board for vocational training is not charged primarily with the responsibility of seeking jobs for discharged disabled service men, but of fitting them to jobs which they can successfully fill after they have re- ceived the emergency training to qual- fly them for the job. Hence the fact that a small number of men have been returned to suitable employment. The statement has been made that two and one-half times as much has been spent for salaries for federal board employees as has been spent for soldier training, the letter says. The fact is that approximately s150 per montl>4s expended for each man in training. Of this amount s125 per month represents direct expenses for training, subsist- ance money to the man trained, tui- ton, purchase of books, supplies. lab- oratory fees and other incidentaIs. Ap- proximately $25 per month represents indirect expenses, which includes all salaries of central and district officers, rentals and office supplies.

 BITTER WARFARE
(By United Press)

London, Oct. 4.-Reuter dispatches today from Warsaw state that Poland and Lithuania have agreed upon an armistice. Such an agreement was generally expected in view of the fact that Poland had discontinued efforts to seize Wilma, the capital of Lithuania.
 One stipulation in the armistice was that Lithuania should not permit Bol shevik forces to cross her territory while marching against Poland. A commission had lately been sent by the league of nations to Poland to aid in restoring peace with Lithuania.

 As stated by Senator Harding to- day, his stand on the league of na- tions has been approved by Senator Johnson, and he has been assured that Senator Borah will continue his tour of speech making in behalf of the Republican ticket.

portunities to advance our interests, involve ourselves in no responsibility for the maintenance of the right in the world or for the continued vindication of any of the things for which we en- tered the war to fight. The conception of the great creators of the govern ment was absolutely opposite to this They thought of America as the light of the world, as created to lead the world in the assertion of the rights of peoples and the rights of free nations; as destined to set responsible exam pie to all the world of what free gov ernment is and can do for the main tenance of right standards, both na- tional and international This light the opponents of the league would quench. They would relegate the United States to subordinate role in the affairs of the world
 Why should we be afraid of re- responsibilities which We are qualified to sustain, and which the whole of our history has constituted a promise to the world we would sustain? This is the most momentous issue that has ever been presented to the people of the United States, and do not doubt that the hope of the whole world will be verified by an absolute assertion by the voters of the country of the deter imitation of the United States to live n n II tho ,,rb ioh they created by entering the war and enabling the other great nations of the world to bring it to victorious con- clusion. to the confusion of Prussian- ism and everything that arises out of Prussianism. Surely we shall not fail to keep the promise sealed in the death and sacrifice of our incompar- able soldiers, sailors and marines who wait our verdict beneath the sod of France.
 Those who do not care to tell the truth about the League of Nations tell you that Article X of the covenant of the league would make it possible for other nations to lead us into war, whether We willed it by our own inde- pendent judgment or not. This is ab- solutely false. There is nothing in the covenant which in the least interferes with or impairs the right of congress to declare war or not declare war ac- cording to its own independent judg- ment, as our constitution provides. Those who drew the covenant of the league were careful that it should con tain nothing which interfered with or impaired the constitutional arrange ments of any of the great nations which are to constitute it's members. They would have been amazed and in- dignant at the things that are now be- ing ignorantly said about this great and sincere document.

WILSON IN DEFENSE
 OF NATIONS LEAGUE
(Bv United Press3


 Washington, Oct 4-Charging that the people of the United States have been grossly misled in regard to the treaty. President Wilson last night issued statement from the white house in which he briefly defended Article X and also criticised those who have opposed the league Written in the presidents own handwriting, the statement is an impersonal statement ot the league issue, not mentioning the names of any candidates. The whole world will wait for your verdict in November as it would wait for an intimation of what it's future is to be- the president concludes. The text of President Wilson's appeal to the peo- pie follows:
 My Fellow C0untrymen:
 The issues of the present campaign are of such tremendous importance and of such far reaching significance for the influence of the country and the development of its future rela- tions, and l have necessarily had so much to do with their development, that l am sure you will think it nat ural and proper that l shoul dadress to you a few words concerning them. Every one who sincerely believes in government by the people must rejoice at the turn affairs have taken in re- gard to this campaign. This election IS to be genuine nationl referendum. The determination of a policy upon which the influence and authority of the United States in the world must depend is not to be left to groups of politicians of either party, but is to be referred to the people themselves for sovereign mandate to their rep resentatives. They are to instruct their own government what they wish done.
 "The chief question that is put to you is, of course, this: Do you want your country's honor vindicated and the treaty of Versailles ratified? Do you in particular approve of the league of nations as organized and empower ed in that treaty? And do you wish to see the United States play it's re- sponsible part in it? You have been grossly misIed with regard to the treaty, and particularly with regard to the proposed character of the lea que of nations, by those who have assumed the serious responsibility of opposing it.
 They have gone so far that those who have spent their lives, as I have spent my life, in familiarizing them selves with the history and traditions and policies of the nation, must stand amazed at the gross ignorance and im- pudent audacity which has led them to attempt to invent an 'Amercanism of their own, which has no foundation whatever in any of the authentic tra- ditions of the government. American ism as they conceive it reverses the whole process of the last few tragical years. It would substitute America for Prussia in the policy of isolation and defiant segregation.
 "Their conception of the dignity of the nation and its interest is that we should stand apart and watch for op-

 En route from St. Louis yesterday.

Democratic leaders along the line expressed renewed con- fidence in the party's victory.
 As shown by the speeches he made on hls tour of the west, Governor Cox IS pnnlng his hopes on the league of nations issue and the support of the progressive vote. He will be at Col umbus Wednesday for a short time, before starting his invasion of Ken lucky, Illinois, Tennessee and Indiana.
 Closing his western tour with a speech at Kansas City on Saturday night, Governor Cox delivered his 22oth speech since leaving Columbus Ohio one month ago.
