ements b) I 4000 DISABLED Adoption of Legislation Gives Relief to Mcn Whose Cases Were Delayed WASHINGTON, June 10.—Thru the adoption of legislation providing that the board of vocational educa-! tion, instead of the bureau of war! risk insurance, shal] decide upon the eligibility of disabled soldie: for vocational training, congress has made it possible for more then 4,000 applications, upon which action has been greatly delayed, to be passed upon almost immediately, and the training of the applicants under- taken. The legislation was spon- sored in thé senate by Senator Ken- yon of Iowa, and in the house by Representative Fess of Ohio. In ex- planation of the action of congress, Mr. Fess said today: Delayed Action “Heretofore, the question of elig- ibility for vocational training has been handled by the bureau of war risk insurance, but the bureau’s con- tention that the degree of a soldier's disability must first be determined before he could commence his voca- tional training has resulted in de- layed action upon thousands of cases. Under the law just passed, training can be commenced merely upon proof of disability, regardless of its degree, leaving to the war risk bu- reau the separate question of the ex- tent of the applicant’s disability, and the compensation to be paid. Under the new law a minimum monthly al- lowance of $80 is provided during the ten months course of instruction. However, if a man’s disability com- pensation is eventually set at a high- er figure, the larger amount will be paid during the entire course. Good News for Friends “This is an exceptionally good piece of legislation on behalf of the disabled soldier. It ndt only removes ' all impediment to his securing the education which has already been provided for, but it assures him ample funds for living expenses until such a time as the war risk insur- ance acts upon his claim for compen- sation. It clears up on unhappy sit- uation, and will be very pleasing to those who are interested in the sol- dier’s welfare.” . | Mr. Fess recalled that criticism| had been voiced because the ‘otal appropriation for vocational training | Mi compared unfavorably with the emount set aside for similar work in Canada. He pointed out, however,! that vocational training was to be! undertaken in the United States in conjunction with schools already es- tablished while in Canada the project chlled for the creation of new schools, thereby necessitating 2 much greater outlay of money.
