Helena, Mont, March 17.-More APP
pllcations for vocational training were
approved in February than in any 9TH
er previous month, according to Left
Fredericks, state placement officer,
who adds that fully one hundred and
fifty cases received favorable action
during the past thirty DAYS. All of
the men granted training are disabled
soldiers or sailors.
The men come from every section
of the state. Butte with ten and
Great Falls with eleven lead the other
cities in the number Of students &C
cepted for training.
No trade or professional is denied
disabled men who are eligible for vo-
cational education. The only require
ment is that their injury shall con-
stitute no handicap in the new avoca-
ton, and that their educational and
occupational experience must indicate
their ability to pro6tab1y follow it.
Otherwise, the soldiers own prefer
ences rule.
Ex-service men in training get
$4,000 month from the Vocational
Board. If they are married, the al
lowance Is $115.0O., This is in add.
ton to the wage or salary received
from the shop or factory where they
are employed. Mr.. Fredericks stated
that some vocational students in this
state are receiving as high as $4,000
month while learning trade.

The Stars and Stripes carries other
news about the Legion that has not

It seems that progressive insurgent
forces are at work in the Legion and
lately won a great victory, which
caused a big shakeup in Legion in
teTnal affairs. First, the national Le-
gion has been forced by some of its
| more progressive state branches to
abandon the ambiguous position in re-
gard to soldiers bonus taken by the
national convention at Minneapolis.
The Legion, instead If passing the

fight for a bonus, as was originally de-
cided, is now. actively fighting for A

NEW SEDITION BILL

Congressman Hustled Of New York,
member of the house judiciary COM
mittee, who introduced the Infamous
Hustled bill that faied along with the
Sterling and Graham bills and also
that Of Attorney General Palmer, has
introduced a brand new peace time
sedition bill, and the real fight is now
on for free press. This bill looks
innocent and is highly camoufaged
with words like physical force" "as-
sassination," overthrowing the gov
eminent" ETC., and is exactly the
tricky sort of thing that glib con-
gresham can explain away to an av-
erage citizen who knows nothing of
the subtleties of law.
jackson II. Ralston of Washing
ton, eminent constitutional lawyer
who smashed the Davey (Palmer)
bill in his argument before the judi
ciary committee, says OF Husteds
latest attempt:
seThis 11-line bill of Mr.. Hustled is
fundamentally as dangerous to free

posed by Senator Sterling, Mr.. Ora
