eral years. Then the Army
bought her for use as a supply
boat. Plying between Canton
and Palmyra Islands she was. for
a while, the principal supply ship
to Tanning Island.
The old tub lost no time in be-
ginning her second childhood
and fully enjoyed every minute
of it.
The happy-go-lucky ship sell
dom ran on an even keel. Her
boilers saw the inside Of the re-
pair yard more than once--pr0b-
ably because some of the times
she was run on salt water.
Other ships had no desire TO
be near her in Japanese infested
waters but, undaunted by their
aloofness, Smokey joe. con-
tentedly travelled alone. In the
daytime smoke from her stacks
could be seen 40. miles away: at
night sparks from her fires lit up
the area around her. Her crew
members didn't worry though
they figured the Japs would take
one good look at her and decide
against wasting a torpedo.
Oblivious to her eccentricities
a new captain came aboard in
Pearl Harbor and was bringing
her into Honolulu harbor when
the wheel refused TO answer.
Struggling on, he finally got her
alongside the dock.
But that was only the begin
ming of his troubles. The new
skipper asked for full speed
astern. Instead, he got full speed
ahead and did one of the incest
jobs of ramming Smokey Joe"

Most of the offenders are pri-
vate trade schools, DR.. Brown
says. Non-profit institutions, in
Guiding most colleges and uni
versities, are not guilty of these
practices.
The senate committee that is
investigating war contract scan
dals is running out of funds.
Senator Mead, chairman, has
asked for more money to carry
ON the committees tasks. It
got $4,000 early in the year.
Need for more money was ex-
planned by Senator Brewster. He

Washington - Racketeering
schools and employers are reap
ing a rich harvest from the vet
Grams education program, charges
DR.. Francis J. Brown, national
authority on the CT bill of rights
educational provisions. DR.. Brown
states that tighter controls are
needed. Over 900 million dollars
have already been expended in
the program. Before the end of
the year DR.. Brown predicts that
two million former servicemen
will be enrolled in various forms
of schooling and training. His
charges are contained in a report
to the American Council on Public
Affairs.
Some schools, asserts DR..
Brown, have increased fees and
have added questionable cour-
ses" to get all they can from the
government. Employers in many
cases have looked upon the CON
the-job' apprentice training for
veterans as merely a way to get
a lucrative government subsidy.
These abuses cannot be corrected
under the present loose laws, DR..
Brown comments.
The Veterans administration
can exercise control over the vet
eran, but not over the school
which he chooses to attend. It
IS up to the states to inspect and
supervise the schools that are
receiving federal payments for
veterans tuition fees. Many states
are not doing any policing, since
The veterans educational law does
not provide any funds to REIN
burse STATES for supervisory oa
penses.
There are already more than
100000 training establishments
hat states have approved for vet
Grams. You can see what ire
"1endous job it would be to in
Tnect all of them," explained the
doctor.
While it is impossible to esti-
mate how much INSCRIPTIONS
schools and employers have pro-
fitted through loopholes in the ed
ucatlonal laws, the sum must be
tremendous, continues DR.. Brown.
He cites these typical cases:
A flying school has divided the
training course into three parts
so that it can collect $500 per
course for each veteran, or a
total of $500 per man. Formerly
The entire course had been given
for a fee of $500.
A shoe shop that hired men
under the "on-the-job'' program
gave no instruction, and the vet
Grams learned only what they
ou1d pick up by watching other
workers.

Enlistments for these units will
be made for a three year period
only, it was pointed out, although
enlistments for airborne unas-
signed are authorized for any pc

In Memory Of
Howard Rash

Though your hearts are heavy
laden,
Though your eyes are wet with
tears,
Howard will never know the
heartaches.
That would come through sorrows
here.
God has given precious jewels,
Howard, one so Young and fair,
Sod did call away to heaven,
He will rest forever there.
Father, mother, brothers, sister,
Propose now to meet him there,
Where all sorrows will be over,
In that land so pure and fair.
Yes, his footsteps they will linger,
And his empty chair we'll see.
But he's happy now in heaven,
With the angels he will be.
Dear Jesus, come and bless the
family,
Help the ones that have strayed
away,
That they will return to Jesus
That they may not miss the way.
Comfort, bless and sustain them,
Give them courage for the day,
May they meet Howard yonder
In that home some happy day.
