75 Percent  Employed
 100000 Others
 Are in Training,
 Bradley Reports

buIIalO, N. Y., May G-(UP)- Seventy five percent of the more than 100000 veterans returned from World War II already are back at work and 100000 others are receiving college or on-the-job training under the G. I. Bill of Rights, Gen. Omar N. Bradley said yesterday.
 Leadin ga discussion of "The Veteran" at the 73d annual meeting of the National Conference of So. cial work, Bradley head of the Veterans Administration, described what he termed an unprecedented undertaking in social readjust- ment."
 Bradley's speech highlighted the fourth days program of the week. long conference for more than G. 900 social workers.
 Applications for training under the G. I. Bill have skyrocketed to nearly 100000 in recent months" !" Bradley said in predicting that vet eran students would comprise 75 percent of the crowded enrolment in mems colleges and 30-50 percent in co-educational institutions.
 Tt wasn't until World War II that we recognized all veterans as apt to suffer costly dislocations as a result of war" he said. Many veterans suffer what might be called a social disability in the interruption of their lives and in the impairment of their careers, This latter group is a urgently in need of aid in finding their way back through civil life as are the veterans injured during the war. Not until 1914 with the enact ment of the Serviceman's Read justment Act, could we be said to have acknowledged the social and vocational as well as the bodily dis abilities of war;" he said.
 He emphasized the community responsibility in finding room. and housing for the veteran, in assert ing that "our program is predica- ted upon the ability of the Ameri- can people to make it meaningful in the place where the veteran lives"
 Of the 100000 veterans already taking courses under the G. I. Bill, he said about 30 percent are en- rolled in educational institutions, with the others in training on-the- job.
 Bradley denied that the veterans readjustment allowance of $20 week. ly for 52 weeks was a "dole," assert ing that it is an allowance to in- sure the veteran against the neces- sity of accepting the first job that might have been. He insisted, too, that the plan had not been abused. with the average payment lasting only total of seven weeks.

 Gocl1ed in the Middle
 The Orchid Club, where the chairs are gold and the band is frantic, socked me $65O for wine and half 8 small bird called chicken but which believe was a pigeon captured in Trafalgar Square.
 Folks can't often eat at Orchids or Sandy's or the Embassy because of fantastic prices, so let's look in- to medium high class restaurant such as the red leather upholstered grill room in the basement of the Strand Palace. There I only had to pay for the napkins, music and ser- vice in order to buy a $1.25 lunch.
 This consisted of sprouts, Q to- mato, the size of marble baked whole, a gob of mashed potato and sausage. There was an item in the papers while back about butch CT being arrested for putting too much meat in his sausages. My sausages did not come from him. It had a vague aroma of meat, but I could not tell whether 1t was made of oatmeal rye. CT lead pencil shavings.
 No EnjOyment in Meals
 You think I'm exaggerating. had lunch with a native Londoner in 8 celebrated pub called the Cock and he said he long since had quit looking forward to his meals. He was eating mixture of 90 percent boiled noodles and 10 percent slreds of meat He said he regarded meals as he did medicines, to be consum- ed in order to remain alive.
 There is not one grain of rice in London. That poses problem to the Chinese eateries, but the willy Oriental in charge of the Soho's Restaurant Universal has solved it. He pours chop suey (mostly cab- bage) on a mound of boiled barley.
 Each dining room has signs which say it is against the law for a pro- prietor to serve bread unless he IS asked for 1t. I asked for it at first, but lately I have not bothered.
 The pleasant lady operating the ivy tea room at Hampstead asked if would like a nice paste sandwich. thought she had some kind of meat paste. did not know until bit into in that she meant wallpaper paste.
 Londoners Disheartensd I have tasted no fruit in London, no fresh vegetable salads. Milk is reserved for babies and invalids Coffee is plentiful and not as bad as I expected.
 What gets the Londor1ers down is the tea shortage. Restaurants won't serve 1t at lunch or dinner, but hoard 1t for 5 P. M. when everybody has a cup. I can understand the citizens distress. Theirs is the best tea I've ever had-warm, soothing rich of flavor, and excellent for taking mant mind off sprouts. Only he gets no tea when he's gulping sprouts and (thank Provi- dence) vice versa.
