HELP FOR WIVES AND CHILDREN xOF WAR HEROES Bill Providing Schools for Widows and Orphans Waits House Action. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Education for work, at Government expense and with Government aupport, is promised for about 28.000 Americans, including 12.000 women, by a measure which has already passed the Senate and is said to have excellent prospects in the House. This is the Kenyon-Fess bill, which passed the Senate on Jan. 31 of the current year, and now lies awaiting action by the House of Representatives. Kejfl’esentative Simeon P. Fess of Ohio, whose special protege Is this bill, attempted in vain to get a quorum together to discuss it during the last few days of the closing session of Mr. Wilson's admlnls^#ion. bill offers vocational training under the supervision of the Federal board of vocational education to the widows and orphans of Americans who lost their lives during the period that the United States was actively engaged in the World War, and also to American citizens who served In allied armies, that is. with the Canadian. British. French, Italian or Belgian forces. In other words, the United States Government is planning to help the wives and children of heroes fit themselves for jobs whereby they can earn their bread-and-butter and our men who did their duty under foreign but allitd flags will, in this way, not be deprived )f their privileges as Americans. It is estimated by the Federal board Ifhat at least 10,000 Americans who had “enlisted in allied forces will thus become eligible for vocational training and 12,000 widows and 6.000 orphans. These figures are a conservative estimate compiled by the War Department, a<Td it is possible that further investigation now being maae by the various district offices of the Federal board will Increase this number. Among prominent individuals especially interested in the compiling of these statistics is Miss Helen P. McCormick of New York City, who is assistant district attorney of Kings County, New York, and ehairman of the Catholic Big Sisters of that locality. Miss McCormick is personally searching the records of the local war heroes in order to find especially how many women and children in America’s greatest city will be entitled to such training. WHAT WOMEN ARE EXIGIBLE. In prder for a widow or orphan to be eligible for this training It will be necessary to prove that the husband or father has died since April 7. 1917, as a result of injury or disability incurred. Increased or aggravated while in service, or traceable, in the opinion of the board, *to origin during his period of service. No can receive these benefits unless sr.e commences a course of training under the supervision of the Federal boArd prlbr to Jan. 1. 1925, nor in the event of her remarriage. Moreover, application for such training mnst be made to the district office of the Federal board within eighteen months after the date that the hill passes and has become a law. In the case of an orphan, vocational training shall,only be furnished between the ages of 14 and 18 years. Os course, at this time most of the orphans of soldiers killed during this war are from 2 to 5 years of age. The provision allows. however, that provided application is made by the child's guardian before the eighteen months have elapsed, the child will receive the training when 14 years of age. The reason that the age limit is set in this manner has been explained /by Mr. Monroe, a member of the House Committee on Education, to be based on the ground that the public Schools take care of these children up to the age of 14. In the cases of the men who served with allied forces, the bill states that “Every person in the military or naval forces of any ally of the United States In the late war, if a citizen of the United States immediately prior thereto, anjjl having resumed citizenship if lost OFs reason of any oath or obligation taken for the purposes of entering such allied service, who, since April 7, 1917, has resigned or has been discharged or furloughed therefrom under honorable conditions, having a disability in the judgment of the board, constituting a vocational handicap, or of a degree of ten percentum or more. Incurred, Increased or aggravated while a member of such forces, or later developing such a disability traceable, in the opinion of the board, to service with such forces shall be furnished by such board, where feasible, such course of vocational rehabilitation or vocational and general education as the board shall prescribe.” INCLUDES MEDICAL TREATMENT. < It will be especially noted that by the above-quoted passage in the Kenyon Fess bill, anew latitude of eligibility is given In that to be eligible if man may have either 10 per cent disability or a vocational handicap. Formerly the provision was for the vocationally handicapped only. In another section of the bill this expression also includes men who served with the United States military and naval forces. Another very interesting feature of'the bill is the provision stating that all medical treatment which any widow, orphan or ex-servlee man may require while receiving such training, be provided at the -expense of the Government. As no provision of this sort has been made by -Congress, such organizations as the Elks have raised special funds to take care rf doctor's bills incurred by men who have received or are now receiving such training. However, as most of these •military organizations are now closing all their war work, most of their funds l-have ceased to be available for this pur iipose. j l Another section of the bill provides S|bat “every person electing to follow a Ijsourse shall, while following the same, jgtpaid monthly by the said board, from ijjhe' appropriations made, by the Congress for carrying out the provisions of ‘the vocational rehabilitation act. such . turn as in the Judgment of the said hoard Is necessary for his (or her) maintenance and support and for the maintenance and support of persons dependent upon him. if any.” In no event can the sum so paid an adult, without dependents, exceed 8100 a month, or, with dependents. 8120 a month. In the latter case, however, there are In addition, the various sums prescribed as family allowances which are provided for by the war risk insurance act. The amount to be paid a child while pursuing a course of training cannot exceed 850 a month. Children Included in this art are legitimate children, children legally adopted prior to N'ev. 11, 1918; stepchildren, and illegitimate children, provided the deceased father had been judicially ordered, or decreed to contribute to such child's aupport at any time. J. The courses of training under supervision of the hoard include a practically unlimited scope of choice. Training in various agricultural pursuits, business courses, trades, professions all are represented in the long list of over one hundred occupations. These include all the popular, up-to-date trades such as automechanic work, show-card writing, pho tography, linotype work, wlndow-trim-JP. tailoring and other similar trades. *ls well as the older occupations, preparing for clerical or stenographic work r for work in one of the professions such as pharmacy, theology. Journalism r medicine.

COLLEGE HIRES TRUANT BOY TO COLLECT DOGS (Continued From Fare One.}

receives and complaint from someone In Rushville that his pet dog is missing, but that repeatedly he has started inves. tigation only to have the dog returned to the owner in much the same manner that Judge Walter Pritchard’s missing Airedale, “Jerry,” was returned to him In this city. The chief says he has searched the premises occupied by Stanley Kemp, father of the youthful dogsnatcher, but hks never found stolen dogs there. Carroll Downey, fireman at Rushvllle, is authority for the statement that the truck In which dogs are transported to the medical college was in Rushville about two weeks ago. He said the truck was specially fitted for the transportation of dogs. Rushville 'dog owners arT considerably aroused by the dog traffic which the medical college has Induced. Judge Sparks says that a number of citizens hav< counselled with him as to how their pets could be protected and that In a number of cases owners have placed a valuation on their dogs for taxation as personal property in order to be able to make a larceny charge against any one who takes them. Kemp has a corn crib at his place where dogs whichAe snatches are confined while they await the arrival of tht truck from the college. The care given the dogs while confined In this crib Is negligible and it is easily understood why the animals are in “such condition that they do not appear to be anybody's pets” by the time they are received at the “death kennels” In Indianapolis. A prominent merchant of Rushville recently lost a valuable dog and having heard of Kemp as a dog-snatcher, visited the Kemp home on a search for It. He did not find the dog there, but shortly afterward it was found In another part of the town, where it had been confined *35 FOR ONE DAY’S SNATCHING. Statements differ as to the number of dogs that the boy has collected for the medical college. The Times has a letter from one Rushville citizen, who says that Kemp boasted to him of having been paid 835 one day for collecting dogs for the college. Mrs.*Kemp says that the total number of dogs collected by her son was not more than twenty. Beyond admitting that he had gathered up eight dogs from Milroy young Kemp : refused to make any statements relative :to the number he had procured or to | the places from which they were proi cured. Young Kemp had evidently been tbor- ! oughly posted as to the procedure to | follow in event he was questioned concerning his dog snatching. He launched 1 into a long discourse concerning the j ‘‘scientific’’ uses to which the dogs wefe I placed when received by the college, reI fused to give any names of persons with whom he denied and insisted that he would ‘‘tell nothing that would get the college In nad.” . His mother said that Kemp was induced to undertake the collection of dogs while he was a patient at the Long Hospital In Indianapolis last fall. The Indiana law concerning the transportation of animals reads as follows: j “Every owner, possessor or person having the charge or custody of any animal who cruelly drives or works the same or who neglects or abandons such animals when no longer fit for labor, or who shall abandon any maimed, sick/infirm or disabled animal to die in any public place, or who shall carry or cause to be carried upon any vehicle, or otherwise, any living animal, fowl or bird, having the feet or legs tied together, or in any other cruel and Inhuman manner, or who shall carry or cause to be carried any** live animal upon any vehicle, or otherwise, without providing suitable racks, cars, crates or cages in which such animals may stand or lie down during transportation, or whilst awaiting slaughter, shall, on conviction, be fined not more than S2OO, to which may be added imprisonment in the county jail for any period not exceeding sixty days.” SOCIETY LEAVES IT , ALL TO DR. PFAFFLIN. At a regular meeting of the Indianapolis Humane Society held last night, a motion to appoint a special committee to Investigate the conditions at the medical school was voted down and the investigation was left to the executive committee, headed by Dr. C. A. Pfafflin, “chief of the petit police force,” who was present and informed the society that all which had been said about the medical college was “lies.” Dr. Pfafflin is a specialist who depends for Ills medical pffletiee on the good will I of physicians and surgeons who send him patients. Any ateps that he might take toward interfering with the prac tlees of the medical school could be expeeffed to alienate the “good will” of the physicians who approve of the college treatment of dogs and thereby curtail j his business. Under his direction complaints made \ against the college more than a year ago were promptly smothered and since the latest complaints have been made against the college Dr. Pfaffiin has been industriously engaged in trying to discredit all persons taking part in the investigation. ' Among others active in the humane society affairs who are opposed to any effort to stop the practices of the medical college is W. S. Frye, the head of n trucking company in Indianapolis, which has been persistently fighting all efforts to license trucks and against whose practice of operating trucks without license identification the police of Indianapolis have complained publicly. It Is understood the executive committee of the humane society expects to hear from the college soon and. in the meanwhile, humane officers, directed by Dr. Pfafflin, are cinder Instructions to get all evidence possible to show that the medical college is not in any way infracting the laws of the State In its treatment of the dogs procured for It by the juvenile delinquent at llushville and others.

The appointment of John W. Beard, 303 West Vermont street, as raker for the asphalt plant at 60 cents an hour was announced. The board confirmed the resolution for the Forty-Sixth street and Capitol avenue sewer. All uction for the resurfacing of Virginia avenue from Washington to Maryland streets was rescinded and the street was ordered put in the best repair possible.
