Full-time students will receive
$ll0 per month; if married Sl35;
those with more than one depen-
dent will be considered in the top
bracket and will be paid $3.50
monthly. No extra funds are pro-
vided for additional expenses for
such things as books or training
materials.
There Is also an apprentice or
Job-training program which pro-
vides the single veteran with $40
monthly. If he is married he will
receive $85: if he has more than
one dependent, $105. These sums,
combined with the wages that he
receives from the employer, must
under no circumstances exceed
$3l0 monthly.
Under both Of these programs
the veteran is entitled to one-and-
a-half days of education for every
day OF service in the Armed Forces
on or after June ~. 1850, regard-
less OF where service was performed.
To be eligible however. ne must
nave served a minimum of 80 days.
Training must start within two
years OF August ~, 1850. or within
two years after separation, which,
ever is later.
All OF the schools wishing to ac-
cept veteran students must be ap.
proved by the Ohio Department of
Education. The school must have
been In continuous operation for
over two years and must have an
enrolment Of at least 15% nom
veterans. Schools that trained
World War II veterans are not
necessarily approved under this law.
I would suggest that it would be
advisable to check with the Vet
erans Administration before max
ing any commitments. Their local
office is in the Cuyahoga Building
in downtown Cleveland.
This regional Office under Harry
w. Farmer, Manager, has assured
me that they are prepared to give
every aid to the veteran-applicant.
Together with the Board of Edu-
cation they have lists Of all ap-
proved schools and apprenticeship
and job-training establishments.
They also have experienced educa-
tional advisors who are prepared
to evaluate the possibilities of each
trainee. would further suggest
that every Korean veteran who is
considering continuing his educa-
ton visit this local office promptly
and secure the complete advise
ment and guidance service which
the agency has to offer.

Of my term in Office.
You who are graduating here
today can always be proud of thi'
university. This institution wa.
founded in 1857 to give meaning
to the principles of freedom, ane
to make them work.
The founders Of this university
had a great vision. They knew
that the slaves who had been sci
free needed a center Of learning
and higher education. They could
foresee that many Of the freed
men, if they were given the
chance, would take their places
among the most gifted and hon
ored American citizens. And thai
is what has happened. The long
list of distinguished Howard
alumni proves that the vision d
those who established this uni
yersity was profoundly true.
This university has been a true
institution Of higher learning
which has helped to enrich Amer
lean life with the talents Of 9
gifted people
For example, every soldier and
every civilian who receives the
ife-saving gift of a TRANSMISSION
from a blood bank can be CRATE
full to this university. For it was
the work of a distinguished How
ard University professor, the late
DR.. Charles Drew that made pos
sible the very first blood bank in
the whole world
This is a practical illustration
of the fact that talent and genius
have no boundaries Of race, or ma
~tionality, or creed. The United
States needs the Imagination, the
energy and the skills of every one
of our citizens.

Since completing of Coulee and

HELL'S CANYON
In reply to questions concern

Where such structures, by private

NINE DAMS UNDER
CONSTRUCTION

Nine federal dams are under con-
struction in the basin today, in addi-
ton to the completed Coluee and
Bonneville dams. These nine dams
will add 100000 kilowatts of pow
er to present supplies. Of this g.
100000 will be firm power.
However, according to Raver, the
nine dams are not enough. "We're
