Program Planned For Training High
School Students In Chosen Vocation

A full scale cooperative train
ing program for diversified oc-
equations will be added this year
to the curriculum of the Pasca-
goula public schools. E. A. Par
ker, coordinator of the War Pro-
duction school, announced. Su-
pervised by a coordinator en-
ployed by the public schools, the
plan is cooperative" in the sense
that both school and industry en-
ter into the training of the pupil
and it is diversified in that
training may be offered in many
different trades. occupations, or
professions.
Under this plan a student will
be employed and will work a
half day or 3 or Az hours. He
will be expected to produce
just as any other worker, adj
vancing in efficiency, through
training given by his employer.
After the student has met the
standards of efficiency for one
job he will be moved to another
job covering another unit of
training and will thus be en-
abled to learn all phases of his
chosen occupation.
During the remaining hours of
the day the student will attend
regular high school classes. In
addition to taking regular high
school subjects, he will have two
periods a day devoted to the
study of material relating to his
vocation.
Through this plan the average
high school student will be able
to graduate in the usual 4-year
period and, at the same time re-
ceive from one TO two years
training and experience in a par
ticular vocation.
Training Available
Preliminary arrangements have
been made with local business
firms to accept these students for
employment and training under
this arrangement in the follow
ing lines of work: retail selling
or merchandising, automotive re-
pair, automotive parts work,
newspaper reporting, banking,
dry cleaning, office practice, dem
tai assistant, machine shop, lab
oratory technician, and ice man
ufacturing. Others may be added
later should the demand by the
student and local industry re-
quire. No vocation calling for
less than a years training will be
included in the program.
The program of training offers
distinct advantages to both the
employer and the student or
"employer-to-be," Mr.. Parker
said. For the student it provides
entry into a chosen occupation
as a trained and experienced
worker upon graduation from
high school. The employer is
provided with trained workers
as we'll as an economical method
of training them.
In enrolling students for the
course this year, preference will
be given to juniors and seniors.
Parents interested in work for
their sons and daughters, or the
students themselves, are request
ed to make application at their
earliest convenience, as school
officials expect that it will be
necessary to limit the enrolment
this year.
Those interested may call Mr..
Parker, phone 500, for an APP
pointment, or go to the office in
the vocational shop building
across the street from the Cen
trail Elementary school.

 But many of us have also wondered if our handS-off attitude might not be con- strued by our Allies as implying approval of course in liberated countries which most Americans dislike and fear. And we have wondered if our governments ten der and unrequited solicitude for the feel ings of the Allied governments is the only way to military unity.

Ogdensburg's Good Idea

The end of the Sixth War Loan Drive obviously does not end the need or deSir- ability of buying War Bonds, nor should it end regional and national efforts to stimulate such buying. And in the latter connection, it seems to us that the peo- pie of Ogdensburg, N. Y., have hit upon a scheme worth copying elsewhere.
 It is a sponsor system in which citizen selects a service man or woman and undertakes the purchase of $500 worth of War Bonds through his own buying and through solicitation of others.
 When the Bonds are bought the spon- sor secures "Win-the-War Certificate" an engraved document issued in honor of the sponsored person in service, which lists the names of purchasers on the back. The certificate is then sent to the sponsored person. The merit of this scheme is evident in the letters from re- cipients which Ogdensburg sponsors have received. The certificate, small but tangible evidence of home-front appre- citation, is welcomed by fighting men, the sponsors report. And certainly the sincerity and good taste of this plan takes it out of the promotion stunt" class

Still Going

The weary battle of Montgomery Ward drags on, with the scene of action shifted to the retail field On one side is the stub born, intractable MT. Sewell Avery. Op- posing him is an unsure government bu- reau of limited authority, egged on by the jealous but somewhat awkward ranks ot labor.
 The Ward workers are on strike agaln. Though they are members of congress of unions which has often struck through impatience with the sluggish War Labor Board, this walkout is gesture of protest at MT. Avery's defiance of the same VILE. It also is being used as lever to force another government seizure of Montgom- cry Ward property
 The first time this happened MT. Avery won the skirmish, even though he lost hlS dignity in the process. Public indignation caused the Justice Department to drop the whole thing like hot potato Then, the Justice Department went too far too quickly. Now, the WLB is powerless to go far enough. But it is still government problem.

fornians are dead opposed to the treaty because it would give Mixi- co for all time 1,500,000 feet an- nually of Colorado river water, twice what Mexico had used prior to the building of the Boulder Dam.
 The treaty also would permit Mexico to irrigate large portions of the Baja section of Mexico along the California border, now little better than desert land, Kenny said, while thousands of acres of California desert land which could be turned into an arable paradise will remain a desert if Mexico gets so much water
 ''What has that got to do with Will Clayton?" saked Stet-
 tiniuS.
 "CIayton's firm of Anderson. Clayton and Co.," replied Ken ny. ''has tremendous invest ments in this section of Cali fOrnia. One bank am familiar with has extended his firm S1,OOO, 900 lire of credit for operations in that part of MeexicO.''
 "Of course" replied Stet- tinius. Clayton would have nothing to do with the treaty. He will handle only economic matters in the department"
 But Attorney General Kenny remained unconvinced. Also he got no assurance from Stettinius that the State Department would revise it's treaty with the Mexi- cans. Instead, he got the 'Tradi- tiOnaI ''I'll take care of you and everybody else'' reply from the new Secretary of State. Kenny now plans to talk to President Roosevelt. and, if not successful There, will fight ratification in the senate.
