Your GI Rights QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 ON sERvIcEMEN's PROBLEMS
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN NEA Staff Correspondent

Washington, June 1.-Men who return from this war disabled and unable to do the work they were doing before have no legal right to their old position. To fit hem for occupations in which they can earn 8 satisfactory living, the Govern mnt will provide vocational train- ing. Here are some questions on that subject
 Q. My husband worked in a grocery store before he went into the Navy. I've just learned Il lost his leg in the invasion of Two Jima. How will he ever be able to go back to his old job and go to work. Does this mean he will have to live on pension the rest of his life?
 A. By no means. The Govern ment will send him to school and provide every means possible to teach him new occupation something in which he stands an excellent chance of getting ahead, depending on his ability.
 Q. I just received letter from my husband who was injured in Germany. He says he won't be able to go back to his old job be- cause his back was hurt. They tell me that the Government will pay to teach him a new line of work and give him benefits be- sides. Will you explain what he has coming?
 A. Government will pay for all tuition, books, supplies and equip ment used to learn 8 new voca- tion. During training, if his pen- sion is less than $1O3.50 a month 1t will be increased to that amount, with an extra $5.75 for each child and $11.50 for each de- pendent parent.
 Q. Is it true that dependents of veterans who are disabled can get vocational training? Where can I get all the details?
 A. It is true and you can con- tact your State Board of Vocational Education or ask your nearest U. $. Employment Service office for the address of the nearest Voca- tional Rehabilitation Officer.

BAzOOKA | DEVICE BOON TO
 UNIFORM STEEL
By HAROLD HOPKINS United Press Staff Correspondent


 Indianapolis, June 1.-(UP)-A six-foot pipe-like instrument is sup planting eyes of highly-experienced steel workers in gauging open hearth furnace temperatures in Carnegie Illinois Steel Corps Gary works. The more uniform qualiy steel that results has proved a great boon to the nations war effort.
 Scientific name of the instru- ment is "pyrometer,' Or fire meas urer. Its appearance is similar to bazooka and it directly measures temperatures of the white-hot, mol ten steel
 Before Fred L. Collins and Carl Gary works, invented the device, the eyes of the melters were the most skillful check on furnace temperatures.
 Sought for Years
 An open hearth melter can make fairly accurate estimate by ob- serving accurate estimate by ob- serving the activity of the reaction between slag and metal. the brightness of the slag's surface, or the brightness of the metal when poured into liquid cooling spoon.
 But, these methods rely on the talents of a single, highly-trained man. Yet, the quality and compost tion of poured steel must be uni form, subject to no variations.
 Hence, for years, steel research men have tried to perfect a pyro- meter. Heretofore, all failed. A pyrometer is used to read tempera- lures at their peak. A metallic nose, on the end of long, tubular pipe, is submerged beneath the slag in the bath, measuring the temperature of the mass. Extreme Heat Problem
 Back in 1886, R. B. Sosman, as- sistant research director at one of the corporations laboratories, con- ducted a comparison study of the methods for determining tempera- lures of molten metal in open hearth furnaces. The system that seemed the most promising, was | that of Collins and Oseland. Of the many mechanical meth ods tried, few attained any success They were unable to stand up under the extreme heat or rough usuage by the melters. This hap pened to the first Colins-Oseland invention. Their latest innovation perfected in 1940, is now in use by the corporations many steel mills, but it's performance is a military secret.

lips and Commander Cecil Coggins. Even Japan's fanatical morale is be- ginning to melt before the B-29 fire bombs. And some authorities believe that for a Japanese, the worst way to lose face Is to be an utter fool as one would be if he refused to see that it is better to surrender and save something than to fight on and lose everything. There is hope that the intelligent Japanese to whom the radio broadcasts are addressed will realize this, and will be influ- ential enough to act.

Revived by Army;
New Program Due

The War Department yesterday
ended the wartime suspension of adj
vanced Reserve OfIicers Training
Corps courses in educational insti-
tutions, except in medicine, and also
announced new interim" program
for expansion of the ROTC, initial
ly affecting 129 participating coli
leges and universities.
Liberal financial inducements are
offered veterans desiring to qualify
for reserve commissions while at
tending college under provisions of
the CT Bill of Rights. THIS assist
ance will be given In addition to the
educational allowances they are now
receiving from the Government.
At the same time, Brig. Gen. Ed
ward w. Smith, executive for Re-
serve and ROTC affairs, disclosed
tentative plans for the permanent
postwar ROTC program. These
plans, however, must be held in
allegiance until the Congress has de-
termined the size and nature of the
postwar Army.
AS indicated by Gen. George c.
Marshall's earlier proposals for the
permanent military organizat ton,
the War Department intends to
lean heavily on ROTC training,
which supplied the Army with
