PAGE EIGRT DISABLED VETERANS KEPT | DLE By Harry Hunt | Camp Sherman, O., Jan. 26—“We | came here for training; when do wei get it? ‘That is the question some 300 of! Uncle Sam's former soldiers, now at! the Camp Sherman “vocational | school” here, are asking. t Little progress is visible to the) nakel eye of: one inspecting the| “school” at tirst hand. The institution was set up here tor! ~ IN CAMP “TRAINING” SCH i) “The great-eities are doomed, the puryose of teaching trades to vet-; eruns entitled to rebabilitation train-i ing. Among the courses offered are | Slgn painting, plumbing, carpentry, | tailoring, cabinet making, baking,! shoe repairing, auto mechanics course, | tinning and electrical repairs. To date, approximately ‘six weeks | after the “school” was opened, there | is no rganized plan or method of in- struction in most of the courses and there is no adeqnate equipment for any of the courses except for shoe | ult is a mounting wave of ction and unrest ampng the sent here for training and an openly expressed opinion ‘by most of: them that they are getting nowhere: and that they want to get away. Sign Painting ‘Take for instance the sign paint- ing shop. Sixteen men are onrolled: in this cow Ten were in the! “class ropm” at the time of my visit. One man was painting ‘black block! letters on a board. ‘The others were |’ sitting around the big tin furnace in! the center of the building, ‘keeping ;} warm. ‘Many of these men had been tak- ing sign painting at other schools he- fore they accepted'a transfer to Sher- man.. They, were ready for some of the’ finer: points of the “trade. © But! they are, not getting, even the rudi- mentary lessons’ of :color mixing here, as yeto > iHere -were 16 men ready to learn a trade in‘a schdol to which Uncle Sam had, sent them for training, and yet there was not: on‘hand the essentials for the simplest sign job. Theré were: no‘ oil colors, :no water colors,. no ‘canvas, :no. paper, ‘no frames for. canvas, no easels. Only a little white Jead, some flat black and | a few brushes, < Tallok Shop - In the “tailor shop’ the men were doing patchwork and learning how to use a neédle. ‘One man who-had been’ in place> ment training at a large city: tailoring tstablishment had come to.Sherman} to-‘learn cutting. In the month he had! been here two. suits had’ been cut. Tw hundred were cut, daily at the shop from‘ which he’ was transferred. | He believes he would have learned the trade more quickly ‘in the private shop, but was: told to report’ at ‘Camp Sherman for further training and was afraid to disobey. He would like to ask a transfer but is afraid to. He is also afraid to give his name—“it , might get him in trouble.” Carpenter. Shop In the carpenter shop are six men who are not entered to learn carpen- try. They are enrolled for courses in construction. |But there ig no course in construction (even osten- sibly organized at Camp Sherman, yet, and so they are put in the carpenter shop making odds and ends tor use around, the camp. One’ man, © who came ‘here to complete his trade asa bricklayer, hasn’t seen a’ brick or trowel since he entered the’camp. Cabinet Shop Inthe cabinet shop, adjnining the carpentry shop, the men said instruc- tion really hadn't begun yet. Most of the: men had been at the school more than a month. No instructor was in the room and the men ‘were working away at odd ‘obs. One was making stools .for use in. the auto | repair shop, others were making: battery boxes. An order soon ‘to be tackled, thé’ men sald, was of 300 packing boxes for the quartermaster corps. Plumbing ‘School At the plumbing achaol, the only person. in. evidence . was ‘Mr. Grant, the instructor. He said. 14 men were enrolled in the course, that seven were sick and that the other seven were out on repair jobs anound the camp. The immediate need, Grant said, was. for some equipment. .A threading machine which had been. used. when the. camp was built had been ‘set’ up, j ovens. TWO POSED PICTURES AT THE CAMP SHERMAN . TRAINING VE, IN THE TYPEWRITER REPAIR SCHOOL. BE- LOW, IN THE SIGN PAINTING SCHOOL. but the dies were worn out so it! ‘wouldn't cut threads. There was .also a power hack-saw, but. no blades. Blades had been or- ‘dered since November, the instructor said, but hadn't arrived yet,’ There was ri) lead pipe. The Bakery Over at the bakery there is Just one piece of equipment in addition to the That is a bread mixer. The only instruction that is possi. dle, under existing equipment, tac instructor said, was in plain bread baking. He would like to teach pas- try work also, but had nothing to do it with. They bake the bread for the jmen at the camp, working from 4 to 11:30/a.-m. If:they, had. cake mixers and. forms,”..a ; doughnut: machine, cream-puff filler and other eaulpment, some ‘of the hetter: paid branches of baking might be taught. Other > Work ; Similar, cond.tjons,,were ‘found and expldined in ‘the auto.shop, the elec: | ric shop, the tin: ‘shop. and.- other! “shops” of the “school.” “Lack ‘of equipment, lack of- orgau- ized.and graded’ courses in instruction were! evident everywhere. In not a single one of. the courses; j offered was, there adequate equipment for proper. instruction’ and training, excepting perhaps. the shoo reppir shop, The ‘ equipment there was about that of the ordinary shop that! half-soles. ’em “whilé you wait,” but; was so much more'adequate than that to be ‘found elsewhere that this shop looked "like ‘a_ real shive of industry. ‘These.are the. real. conditions éx- isting today at. this .government! To make a showing at ‘this school, men have been virtually. drafted ‘from j other schools or.shops. where they; were undergoing training. About 500; men have been moved into the school, | of which only about 300 remain.’ The school has been “open” six weeks. Expansion Planned The administra BOCs men and fox the | sinjilar schools at? other abandoned army camps. The men are not idle from: pret- it erence, They come here for training. Many came from well equipped; schools or camps: because the Camp | Sherman school had been red to them as the last word in efficient scientific, vecational. | tutions. _ Others’ camie, they: declare, because they were give jto’ under; } stand that they would get their train; | ing at Camp Sherman sr get none at: all. HEAD ACHED AND BODY ACHED There.are various symptoms of kid- ney trouble—rheumatic pains, back- ‘ache, sore muscles, stiff joints and | “always tired” feeling. Mrs. Geo. Morgan.
