Educational Act of Legisla-
fUre.

1000 World War veterans ap

The educational act provides for

been unable to properly equip them
tselves for their life work. The veter-

vice men during the next two years

and supplies.

or part of the living expenses of the
student in an amount not to exceed
$40 per month.
The veterans board will consider
applications for aid under this actin
the order received, but the mtritsof
the individual will have much to do
with whether or not he secures aid.
All of the veterans VINO apply can
not be given help under this act at
once, Smith asserted, but the board
will endeavor to select those men
who they believe need the courses OF
instruction to enable them to make a
living.
Secretary Smith issued the follow
ing statement to California veterans
"The European war is over, Our
war here is just commencing, Each
and every man must be properly
equipped to play his part.
eff you realize that you have not

A resolution was offered by the

resolution was referred reported back
that the resolution seemed 'supcrilu-

The sentiment guiding this action
was compared to that which led the
