VETERAN By MAJOR TH I don’t usually quote laws and |stutf, but the following sentence from Public Law 16 seems to make (pretty good sense: “The purpose of | rehabilitation is to restore the em- | ployability lost by virtue of a handi- | |cap due to a service-connected dis- ability.” After the disabled ex-Joe or Jane {has completed rehabilitation train- ng, it's the Veterans' Administra- iand national employment agencies ito help the veteran get the kind of |a job he’s been training for. Naturally, the VA can’t be com- | pelled to see that every disabled vet gets the right job after he's finished {his training under Public Law 16 Scmetimes those jobs just aren't available. Yet the VA will exert considerable pressure to place Public 16 graduates in decent jobs. A disabled vet isn't |really considered “rehabilitated” un- til he's got that job he's spent up to four years traning for. The VA has been handed a large responsibility. When a disabled vet applies for Public 16 training the VA vocational counseling boys swing into action. They try to steer him into the right paths of training, be- cause the law compels him to take vocational counseling if he wants to train under Public 16. And then, after the training i over, the VA is supposed to do all that’s possible to get him.a job. If an ex-service man said he want- ed to get into radio, he'd be queried thoroughly, since surveys have indi- cated that certain types of radio job are going to be scarce in a few years. Many men got radio experience in the seryice, so it’s likely ti | tion's job to cooperate with local | | LUBITSCH HIT IS {'Rom SCANDAL' | ing new 20th Century hit, starring 1 Charlss Co- | burn, Baxter and William Ey- the, t the 20th Cen- tury Thea The lightfull, ahdalous story of u en and her ! icut bring iss Bankl to tt n in her first comec e \ plays the part Catherine the Great who feels on her throne and nea2d- ed me surround her. | Acadar Award winner Charles Cobury een in his mest un- u; 1 to date, that of the wil, ncellor who jug the romar id political intrigues of the imperial palace.

Replacing him is Dick an employee of PAA in Ala 1938, and a well-known of Sout t Alaska was employed for a months in the Kodiak and Anchor- age PAA offices, but the majority of his ice has been spent in Soutk Before tak over the m position in Ju- neau, he was stationed as dispatcher at Annette Island.

That's why VA | might try to keep Public 16 ap- plicants from starting training hap- | wzardly in the radio field. | All the foresight possible has to| | be used in deciding what kind of | | training programs are going to be| | of most value for the disabled vets. | | The counselors must do their best to | steer these men into programs lead- to jobs—jobs which have the | best chance of being available at | the end of the training period | To help the veteran while the VA | is locating a good job for him after | his training is finished, the same | | subsistence allowance he got while | training will be continued for two ! more months. The VA also will v travel expenses from the vet's| home to wherever he has to go to| set his new job. | In short, the disabled ex-service or gal who gets into training under this Public Law 16 is almost a ward of the Veterans’ Administra- tion through the whole period of training—and for two months after- | wards, if it takes that long to find the job. VA looks after his health, gives him enough dough to live on, provides him with four years of the | sest training he can get, and, if at | all possible, gets him a job—a good | b .
