Security Is Prime
Need, Speaker Says

To provide sense of security for
physically and mentally handicapped
of Ohio is one of the principal OBJ
jects of the states department of
public welfare, Judge Henry j. Rob-
ison declared in an address at the
luncheon meeting of the Lions club
at the Walnut Grill, Tuesday night.
Judge Robson, speaking on the
subject of Family Security" pointed
out that preservation of the family
is sought in the administration of his
department.
There are now about $4,000 per-
sons in state institutions such as in
sane asylums, institutions for the
feeble minded, prisons and similar
places and besides this the counties
have about an equal number in their
local institutions, the speaker said.
The object of the division of social
administration is to keep as many
people needing some form of help,
out of institutions as possible, thus
preserving self-respect and self-suffi-
cheney.
Child welfare work includes super
vision of some 2,400 crippled child
rem under state care. Besides this
there are about 10000 in the various
county children's homes in the state.
Because of wartime industrial de-
mands, the relief problem has de-
clined from one out of four receiv-
ing aid during the depression to four
out of a thousand at the present
time. Some 700 blind adults have
gone to work in the state during the
present emergency largely thru the
aid of the program of the division of
social administration, the speaker
said.

VETERANS GUIDE
By MAJOR THOMAS M. NAL

needs the full ninety days service if he got out because of a line of duty disability,
 The total credit we can get for number of weeks or unemployment pay is 52 We accumulate weeks for each of the first months of service That's 24 weeks.
 Any service beyond 90 days gives us credit for four unemployment pay weeks for each month. So if we have, say, a total of 10 months of service, we'd get 24 weeks for the first 90 days plus four weeks each for the next seven months. That would be 28 weeks added to the 24 we got for the qualifying 90 days. Total 52 weeks the maximum al lowed for any veteran.
 There are now over 25,000 veterans weekly drawing unemployment pay. This number may not be too large, considering the persent million and a half or more veterans; but the percentage is growing like a spiders web on 6 quiet summer day The actual number beats the l3,000 wise veterans who are using the CT Bills education privileges.
 Today, there are plenty of job op- portunities where veteran can still help in the war struggle. Also an ex-GI can get a drink of training for his future life-on the house. 80 there should be small need for vet erans to draw on their government unemployment pay accounts.
 Indicating that officials of the Veterans Administration are dis turbed, General Hines expressed some apprehension recently when he said. Iief
 T have cautioned veterans not to apply for these allowances unless it is absolutely necessary. They are like one-way bank accounts--the money drawn out will not be replaced. When exhausted, that is the end.
 Tn addition, veterans should keep in mind that benefits received un- der the CT Bill shall be charged against any future adjusted con- pensation which may be provided for veterans of the present war"
 This last reference is, of course, to possible future bonus. You've probably heard that, long time after the last war, bonus bill was passed giving all World War I vet erans adjusted compensation" in the form of government bonds and according to length and location of service.
 But don't count on any such bonus. Mastering pay and all the bene- fits of the CT Bill were designed to eliminate any need for future bonus.
 Unemployment pay is, by law, "readjustment allowance. Save it for future use if you can. All pres ent service people can wait until two years after the war ends to apply. | That's the Congress created read justment period.
 And the war doesn't end when the ! shooting stops. The World War did not end officially with the arnistice in November, 1913. It ended by an Act of Congress in July, 1921.

DEANNA DURBIN
 FEATURED STAR
 IN CAPITOL BILL

Deanna Durbin comes to the Cap itol Sunday in Somerset Maugham's Christmas Holiday" and the pie ture puts the star in distinct de- parture from anything she has done in the past. It is a highly dramatic film. and although Deanna sings a couple of numbers, the picture repre- sents a decided change from any thing she has ever done. Her CO., star is Gene Kelly, and although he began his film career as a dancer, in Christmas Holiday he doesn't dance at all, his role being as dram atic as Deanna's.
 The feature introduces Deanna in dual characterization, a worldly cafe entertainer, and a charming bride whose world collapses about her when her husband of six months commits murder.

In addition to the disqualifications for unemployment pay wrote about at the close of my last article, there is one other.
 You can't strike.
 That is, if you're directly party to labor dispute and you and others go on strike, you become in- eligible for unemployment pay. How ever. if you're thrown out of work be- cause of a strike, but you're not one of the strikers you can get this bene- fit.
 The thing of most importance, though, is that we get the right to collect unemployment pay if our dis charge was other than dishonorable and we had at least ninety days &C., tive service, part of which was after September 16. 1940. No veteran
