May 13 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —The law I I creating the federal board for voca- . . tionat education made it the duty of the • federal board to undertake the. placement of wounded and disabled soldiers, sailors and marines. Many of these men while suffering some slight injury, not enough to require a course of retraining but sufficient to prove a serious handicap in their former occupation, are in need of expert advice upon the best method of proceeding in order to utilize their unimpaired abilities, and this the federal board is prepared to furnish, and has been furnishing. Since the board _ began dealing with the soldier. 3,904 cases have been placed in suitable employment. The federal board main I tains a placement division which ~ keeps a check on the number of men in training, the probable length of time required for each man to finish his course, the date at which he will probably be ready, to take employment; and, meanwhile, the placement [ officials are conducting a search for I suitable employment for these rci trained men, with the result that as each man finishes his training. If It is a wage earning occupation, there is a job ready for him. He is placed in the job, supervised by the federal board, his training allowances being continued, as well as the support allowance to his dependents, until he ' demonstrates that he can “carry on" under commercial conditions. When he is employed as a competent worker and placed upon the pay roll, his ! support allowance ceases; but the [ compensation from the war risk in- - j surance bureau then automatically q_ begins, provided ho has a permanent = disability, and supplements his earn- 3 ing in the line for which he has been y retrained. 1 njj
