WNU Service, 1916 Eye Street, NV.
Washington, d. G.
This Is the first Of two articles on
the subject Of the new reconver-
sion."
In the last two months the public
has learned a lot about the impor-
lance Of industrial reconvsrsion. For
many more months, business men,
with the help of the best technical
advice they could obtain, have been
preparing to shift from wartime to
peacetime production. Government
has shared the knowledge of its ex-
perts and proffered its cooperation.
Labor has contributed its sugges-
tons. All three know what they
want. Together they hope to obtain
successful synthesis.
But what many people do not real
lie is that the nation, the whole
world, for that matter, is facing an
other reconversion problem. equally
as difficult to solve, equally as i'm
portant to achieve. 1t is the recon-
version Of our whole educational sys-
tenn. and upon its success depends
the political future of democracy
and its economic future as we'll, as
embodied in the theory and out
working Of free enterprise.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
our current educational system,
which along with our wartime in
dustrial system made Allied victory
possible. is no more adapted to meet
the new and startling problems of
the postwar world than the Japanese
defense could meet the atomic
bomb.
Enlightened educators everywhere
realize this. In shert time experts
will meet in London to work cut q
program outlined in San Francisco
by the men and women who planned
the educational and cultural coun-
Gil of the United Nations. Here at
home and in other democratic coun-
tries, domestic educational policies
are being reshaped to meet the new
conditions.
Education for world freedom is an
important objective; education for
freedom in the land Of the free Is
equally important, for 1t is the foun-
dation stone Of world democracy.
We have the task Of reconverting
our own Anticipated machinery SO
that it will be geared to produce
and maintain freedom. The United
Nations task is to build new ma.
chinery which will evolve a prod.
uct which must displace the Nazi-
Fascist teachings which still have
their hold on a large segment Of the
population. Our own product must
be both 4 weapon Of offense and Of
defense.
We have a powerful example In
the need for this In the demonstrate
ed strength of the Nazi theology and
the weakness of what we have 30 Tar
produced to combat It.

Ne,U Veterans Pension Rating
Schedule SheIued Until 1916

WASHINGTON = W.D - A new
rating schedule that is expected to
mean more money in the pockets
OF thousands of disabled veterans
has been temporarily shelved by
the Veterans Administration, prob
ably until early 1916.
The schedule was originally des-
tined 20 become effective Oct. l.
AT that time, however. the agency
said the date had been put off
for about month due to printing
delays.
Now the schedules are printed
and in the hands of rating boards.
But officials said today they are
still waiting for legal experts to
iron out quirk that threatened to
engulf rating officials under a mil
hon applications for review.
Under present law re-rating and
any attendant change in pension
would be retroactive to the date
on which the veteran applied for
review. VA wants the law changed
so new payments will be retroactive
10 the effective date of the sched-
ule.
Some veterans will lose under the
new ratings. Most ailments how
ever are re-rated slightly upwards.
The schedule. under preparation
for more than year, was drawn
w IN accordance with disease and
battle experience of World War II.
More than a million cases already
judged will be subject to review
under the new schedule but new
cases are being filed so fast it may
take years to finish the job.

MOTHERS DAY
BY Jesse NimmOns

Mothers day is sad picture, this
year, to thousands and thousands
Of mothers throughout the earth.
Their sons are fighting and dying
courageously, like all good soldiers
are expected to do. Their hearts are
longing for the return of their sons.
Some will return; some will never
return. Some will be helpless when
they return. Unless God steps in
and makes right the wrong, some
will return and still be denied the
things which they are fighting for.
That is one sad picture. It doesn't
make sense.
1t seems to me that the mothers
would wake up and come together
as all good mothers should do, and
work on plans to blot out this mean
and cruel thing called war, and be-
gin to love and care for the welfare
of each others sons.
There is no difference in mothers.
Everyone is born the same God
given way. Why so much differ
ence? That is why we suffer. We are
