VOCATIONAL NEEDS DRAW CRITICISM seriously injured by Federal Board Told District| P a3, Lacks Adequate Facilities for Rehabilitation Work. The Federal Government came in for eriticism last night for its tardiness in enacting beneficial legislation for the District of Columbia and for the in- adequateness of vocational education facilities provided here, at a meeting called by the Federal Board for Voca- tional Education, for the purpose of ac- quainting the citizens here with its rehabilitation work and getting their co-operation in the furtherance of it. The gathering was held in the Y. W. C. A. Building, Seventeenth and K streets, and was attended by many rep- resentative citizens of the District. While expressing pleasure over steps taken toward vocational rehabilitation, speakers criticized the Federal Govern- ment for tardiness in providing such a program, Says D. C. Has Lagged. *“T fear we must wait until Congress can- be convinced before Washington becomes a model in social welfare,” de- clared Walter 8. Ufford, executive sec~ retary of the Associated Charitles of ‘Washington. He told how W: has lagged behind the States in obtain- ing workmen's compensation and other beneficial laws. John B. Colpoys, editor of the Trade Unionist, who followed Mr. Ufford on the speakers’ stand, declared: “We have been served with a lot of bunk by legislators coming from all over the country telling us they are go- ing to make Washington a model city.” While praising the work of rehabili- tation of the disabled here, Mr. Col- ?’YIMM: “We are still left out in he cold so far as vocational educa- lfi‘dfl(a? i ‘hem . five-da; . Colpoys & five-day work week as & means of relieving the un- employment situation. 279,000 Disabled Yearly. Senator James J. Davis of P vania, the first speaker, praised the work of rehabilitation which he said “is turning broken lives into useful oc~ cupation.” He quoted figures showing that 279,000 persons are disabled in this country yearly through accidents. One out of every five so injured, he said, needs vocational rehabilitation. Figur- ing that it cost on the average of $250 for each person rehabilitated, Senator Davis pointed out that those rehabil- itated become an assct while the yearly liability of those not rehabilitated is far more than the actual cost of rehabil- itating them would be, due to the cost to_charity for their upkeep. Repres-ntative John W. Summers of ‘ashington, author of the District of | Columbia rehabilitation bill, praised the | work of rehabilitation and said that the first 16 persons rehabilitated in the District had cost on an average of only $16.60 per person. Edward T. Franks, vice chairman of the Federal Board for Vocational Education, cited the advantages of voca- tional rehabilitation. Card Party at Kensington.
