Train Disabled — Veterans to Enter One of 250 Trades More than 6090 disabled war vet- erans are being trained in the feder- | al employment service to enter some one of 250 trades and lines of work in district number fen which cludes North and South Dakota and Montana. The fact that these men are rela- tively mature, experienced, and ac- customed to discipline and responsi- bility makes them more desirable to employers than ordinary men of equal skill. The Employment service is mak- ing a survey of the industries and interesting employers, to find out the kind and number of skilled help now employed and the possibilities of placing trained veterans with them. All the men who are thus placed are followed up by the scr- vice to see if they make good, for no employer is expected to retain a| man unless he proves 6f real value. Fifty-seven percent of the men re-habilitated have been retained in the same shop in which they have learned their trade.
