TRAINING FOR
FLORIDA EX-SERvICE MEN

Some 400 of Florida's disabled ex-
service men are being trained right ON

in a vocation where he can maintain
himself successfully in spite Of any
handicap due to a disability incurred

him unfit to make living at his regu-
lar occupation. Several hundred others
are awaiting action on their applica-
tons for training.
The federal board for vocational
education is government agency CT
ganized to refrain or re-educate ex-
service men who have become disabled

ice. It is the boards duty to take a
disabled man and to give him the sort

[ his disability. The board is required
