THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1922. EESERVCE MEN'S EDUCATION RAE A ROW WN HOUSE Falla Congressmen Dissatisfied With Conduct of “Vocational University.” FORBES IDEA OPPOSED. Prof. A. Dean of Columbia Tells Why He Is Against i, Chillicothe “School.” rs (Bpecial to The Drening World.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—When the ‘Veterans’ Bureav appropriation is feached to-day in the Independent Offices Appropriation Bill, under con- sideration in the Houee, several ‘uembers will unburden themselves ef long pent-up irritation over the conduct of the bureau, which has supervision over all the activities for the relief of ex-service men. Complaints from World War vet- erans which have been piling up in Congresemen's offices will be the basis of most of these attacks. Con- fusion, inexcusably slow Nandling of oases and general inefficiency are some of the charges scheduled to be hurled at bureau. The recent cage of a Idier who committed suicide in the bureau after long de- lay im settling his case has aggra- vated matters. Among other things, the recent dis- agreement between Col. Forbes, Di- rector of the buréau, and Prof. Arthur Dean of Columbla University over the “university idea” in connection with g@oldier rehabilitation will be aired. Prof. Dean retired after a disagreement with his chief and is eliminated from the picture, but the ‘Vocational University scheme is still an issue and threatens to become a storm centre of the veterans’ relief work. Col, Forbes wants to use aban- dened cantonments for training the Giwabied soliiers. The frst institu- tion of this eort was established at Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, O., Dec. 1, and has a student body of approxi- mately 500, It is planned to put 4,000 men jn training there eventually. Some members of Congress are tak- ing the position that Forbes exceeded authority, and pending « thresh- out of the question Forbes is de- the establishment of three lother such training echools. When first came under fire on the plan @ few weeks ago he sought to secure \President Harding's indorsement, but e President cautiously decided to ‘wait until the Chillicothe school has beyond the experimental Col. Forhes has not lost faith this scheme, in spite of the attacks ‘being made on its feasibility. YFORBES WILL FIGHT FOR HIS \ IDEA. “I know that there ts opposition to W6 had thany protests from soldiers’ organizations and doubted the prac tieability of Col, Foorbes'# schem but were willing to let him try it out at Camp Sherman.” That the National University pian was the cauee of the internal dissen his retirement {s admitted by Pro‘ Dean “T had not been in the bureau ten days.” he said, “before the Director gave national publicity to his Na- tional University idea, where he had Intended using abandoned canton- ments for training of disabled sol- diers, DEAN TELLS WHY SOLDIERS PROTEST, “The announcement came as a com- jections from all parts of the coun- try was left for me to answer. “I was opposed to the scheme for the following reasons: “1, The disabled man wants to get away from any training camp ides, and no amount of camoufiaging will his objections. As far as possible men should trained near thelr homes and | | |plete surprise, and the flood of ob- | be friends in order that they may be re- turned to their normal life. “$, Calling disabled men from the environment they have chosen and assembling them in great training camps and throwing them into con- tact with other men similarly handi- capped creates a community of handi- capped men. They would be rehabill- tated quicker and more normally by being placed in existing or newly created special Government schools in their normal environments, The experience of England and Canada should be used as a guide, since any abnormal existence as is proposed has been found to be conducive to aggravation of disabilities and post- ponement of rehabilitation, while the best results have come from having the disabled assimilated into normal family life. community ment training follows training, It would still be necessary to-transfer trainees back to commu- nity life for training on the job after they had finished the course in a na- tional training centre. “5. The plan is very expensive be- cause the Government must pay for an overhead cost of heating. lighting. care of streets and buildings, and for protection of/a great army camp, which has not been charged the Gov- ernment when its trainees have been rent to the better grade of public and private training schools. "6. The Government under the na- tional training camp idea has to fur- nish food and lodging (at cost) and to supervise moral conduct. If the trainee attends an existing college, technical institute, trade or commer- cial school the Government ts relieved from these responsibilities. The men will get better recreation and their normai behavior wil] be more normal when living outside of an amy can- tonment. DISABLED MEN SUFFER FROM REO TAPE. Prof. Dean sald these reasons, which were reinforced by resolutio of national, State and local organtz: tions of the various war veterans organizations, were given to Mr. Forbes, but that the Director went ahead with the plan, Prof, Dean added that the Veterans’ Bureau still sees things in “terms of rates, tables, reports, statistics and paper work.” He said the disabled man himself 1s | | 2 MISS Genevieve CA Ww" THRAS TENNIS cd Heovos\ “UEBESEES els Thus Favors Done by Actors’ Society’s War Drives Will Be Repaid.
