Questions and AnsWers
On Servicemen's
Problems
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN

WASHINGTON. - The on the.
job training program has recently
received a lot of publicity because
of abuses to which it has given
rise. Here are some of the que ;tions
from veterans regarding the pro-
gram:
Q-I am interested in the on-the-
job training program for veterans
as it applies to men with disabili-
ties. How will participation in this
program affect such a mans pen
sion? Can you give me a specific
example?
All a qualified worker in a
given job and establishment re-
ceives $3.50 per month and the dil-
abled veteran training on-the-job
under the government program re-
ceives a training wage of 500 per
month, the reduced subsistence al
lowance would be $50 per month.
The pension itself is not affected
by any wage received from an
employer during on-the-job train
ing, but t h e additional training
allowance" may be reduced.
o. started an on-the-jobtrain-
ing program six months ago. It
wasn't approved by the state at
that time, but it has been since.
I started getting checks from the
government only after the compa-
ny's progra n was approved.
Shouldn't I get the money l
missed in the period before Of
fetal approval was received?
Argument of a subsistence al
lowance starts from the date on
which the veteran starts his train
ing, if the firm is already ap-
proved, or from the date Of ap-
proval, if the course is started
before the firm has been approved
to extend on-the-job training.
Q-Where can I get an appli-
cation for an on-the : job training
program?
A-You can get this blank at
any United States Employment
Service office, at any office Of the
Veterans Administration, or at
any local veterans information
center.
Q-Can a man who was drafted
after the war was over qualify Cor
the on-the-job training program?
A-As long as a man serves on
active duty before the official end
Of the war, he qualities.
