Are You Being Showed Around I?

Ait 1ou DchS ohOsou Ahouifus
In Servicemen's Clubs, on the
streets and in many other public
places, how often have you heard
it said, that John Smith or Willie
Jones has been given the old run-a-
round in trying to establish a just
claim for this or that, which is
covered in the Serviceman's Read
justment Act of 1914? In most in
stances, we in the Veterans En-
ployment Service and United Stat
es Employment Service do not
fully subscribe to those statements.
In other words, there are many
parts and benefits listed in the act,
which can only be handled by those
trained to administer the question
ed section. Are we being unfair
to the Veteran if he asks about
certain parts of the Bill, and we in
turn, rather than give him inform
alton of which we are not positive,
refer him to the proper agency for
advice? In most of the smaller
communities, the Veteran seeks
and in most cases receives the cor
rect answer to his problem from
his Legion Post or the U. S. E. S.,
but again may have to be referred
to the Veterans Administration for
the final word.
