JOBS FOR SOLDIERS
War Department Will Not Rest Until Every Veteran
Gets Work of the Kind He Wants to Do

our work. and with the aid of thou
sands of willing volunteers it has been
possible TO keep in operation approx
mately $500 employment bureaus for
returning soldiers and sailors. AS an
instance of the work being done by
these bureaus in 81 cities alone, for
period of four weeks in October
Al ,54S former service men were put in
jobs out Of 47,546 registering.
In addition TO this there is main
tanned a special section at our Wash
ington headquarters which deals ex-
clusively with officers and men who
are technically trained. This section
up to November II. 1919, placed 1921
such men out 1877 applying.
But what about the vast majority
who came back before this time? Stat
istics show that only about % per cent
of those demobilized asked for assist
ance, but this in itself represents a
tremendous task when it is realized
that in round numbers this means L.
900. 900 men. The other rs per cent
secured their old jobs which patriotic
employers throughout the nation held
open for them all during the war. The
war department, recognizing the serv-
ice rendered by these employers, is
sued to each such employer who ap
piled an official citation in the form
of a certificate. To date over $4,000
of these citations have been issued.
A great work has oeen accomplished
but the job is not yet finished. Some
of the most difficult cases remain I'M
placed, and we owe it to the men and
our past record not to quit until we
reach the 100 per cent mark.
When I look back and recollect the
tremendous assistance given by the
civic and welfare organizations, and by
the American legion, which has OF late
entered the field, / can only be filled
with admiration. BY their untfring
efforts of assistance, both monetary
and otherwise, they have been source
of inspiration to all of us.
A year of -ceaseless work has only
tended to redouble their efforts and
as we approach the last phase of this
problem we find them at work with
the same enthusiasm an energy as dis
played during the first days of the
work.
