Of John d. Rockefeller, founder
Of the oil dynasty, at the direct ton
Of Secretary Of War Robert p. Pat

Rockefeller, who enlisted in the
Army az n private and rose 10 the
rank Of lieutenant Colonel, divides
the responsibility for this situation
between the federal government,
which has no overall plan for the
refrigeration Of the veteran into
civilian life, and the community
