Froth alj over the country, wound- ed soldiers pour into New York, | Where college factlities are better and whore life beckons, ‘The smal! town ‘boy comes poorly equlpped, some- times almost penniless. ; Frequently, although wanting training, he will not go to the Federal Board. Many boys haye come out of the army, and eapecially out of army and publiq health hospitals, almost hating any organised Government agency. They hate army discipline, which, they feel, infringes on their individuat initiative. , They hate army doctors and surgeons, They hate the Federal Board because the |Government organised it! They hate ‘with a very especial brand of hatred the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. They hate the pitblic, and I am positive that even those for whom I have done the most have spelis of hating me becalffe I do mot do more. They wind up by hating themselves. Poor: children!

Just think for a moment how you are when you get the blues, Yet they are sick, handicapped by wounds, away from everybody they know and love, and without money—lots of they cannot collect. SERVICE HOUSES WOULD GIVE THEM JOY IN LIFE. * Just think what a joy it Would be if this city were dotted with service houses, so that all the homeless of their unfortunate’ kind could be housed ‘therein, These boys are sometimes gimost crazy with homesioknem and loneli- ness, In some whys they are much worse off than when they were over- seas. At least there wax always something doing over there, and pe sonally | would just as soon be shot uite dead, which happens all at once, an to di¢ u lingering death of lone- liness and homesickness. Of course, if they wauld all go to the Federal Bourd and get work— congenial work—it would be better for themn, But many of them won't. Some I have to voax to go by giving them personal letters, I went one such desperate case to W. I.
