Gardeners Must
Renew Applications

The victory gardens committee re-
minds those who planted gardens on
city-Owned plots this spring that they
must make another application if they
wish the same plot plOwed for next
years garden. Apparently there are
some gardeners who are under the i'm
preston they will automatically have
the same plot Of ground next year and
this announcement is made to correct
this assumption. Unless applications
are in the hands of the committee by
November 81. city-Owned plots will be
assigned to other applicants. Applica-
lions are being received in the office
Of the mayor at the city hall.

War Jobs for
the Handicapped

plans are being rushed by vocation
al education authorities Of Michigan,
Ohio and Kentucky for the rehabilits,
ton OF many men who, because OF ply
steal handicaps, have been deferred
from military service, George III. Fern,
director of the State Board of Control
for Vocational Education, announced
today, after comforting with officials
Of other states in this region on a pro-
gram to place more physically handi-
capped persons in wartime jobs
With the growing shortage OF man
power" Mr.. Fern said, lit is essential
that We provide vocational rehabilita.
tiOn for every person possible.
Many men who have been turned
down by the Army because of physical
defects can become soldiers on the
production line through training and
rehabilitation. There are numerous
jobs which physically handicapped
persons can fill. With the cooperation
Of the United States Employment Ser
vice hundreds are being placed in jobs.
We are issuing a patriotic appeal to
such persons to seek vocational re-
habilitst ton aid. A short time ago it
was difficult for some physically hand
icapped persons to find employment.
But the demands OF wartime prOduc-
ton aEe changing this picture.
In large plant in one state where
the din Of clanking machinery affected
many workers, the employer hired q
few deaf persons, with the result that
production was stepped up and deaf
persons were hired exclusively in that
department. Here was case where q
disability was turned into an asset.
In another city, men with only one
hand were trained for welding. II was
found that they made good welders.
1t Is reported that one large war con-
tractor employs as many as 10000
physically handicapped persons and is
very well satisfied with their work.
The commanding officer Of an ord
nance works has specified that he
wants only physically handicapped
persons To handle his Office work In
order To release able bodied persons
for service with the armed forces or
for war production jobs which demand
much physical stamina. Many physi-
cally handicapped are being trained.
too, as naval ordnance insectOrs and
accountants"
Rehabilitation offices OF the State
Board Of Control for Vocational Edu-
cation are located i'm Detroit, Grand
Rapids, Kalamazoo, Flint, Marquette
Gaylord, and Lansing.
I'VE urge all eligible physically han
dicapped persons to inquire about re-
Mobilization ut our nearest Office" Mr..
Fern says. Cor. they may get infOraa-
ton at our nearest branch rehabilita-
