DISABLED YANKS ARE FAVORED BY CIVIL SERVICE Physical Requirements Are to be Waived in Cases of Maimed Fighters. Fhyrfcal requirements under certain conditions are to be waived by tha United States ; cItII service commls)k In favor of men who were insred to. the military or naval serrlce.

according to an executive - order recently Usued by President Wilson and received by cable at Washlngton-Thl order has been sent out to the cinl service offices of the country, and will lessen the difficulties which hare been standing la the way of some exMidlers obtaining cItII serrlce positions. The regulations specify certain physical defects debarring some persons from the serrlce. Upon the recommendation of the commission, and after consultation with the ; federal board for rocatlonal education and the United States employes' compensation commission, the president issued the following executive order: "Provided, that the commission may. in Its - discretion, exempt from the physical requirements established for any position a disabled and honorably discharged soldier, sailor, or marine upon the certification of the federal board for vocational education that he has been specially trained for and has passed a practical test demonstrating his physical ability . to perform the duties of the class of positions In which employment is sought." In submitting its recommendation to the president the clrll serrlce commission said: "Where it is apparent to this commission that his (the disabled soldier's, sailor's, or marine's) physical condition is such that he would not ordinarily be accepted, tb.6 case will be referred to the federal board for rocatlonal education. That

board will then decide whether it is practicable to educate him for the position sought. If considered practicable, the rehabilitation and education will be given and when completed certification of that fact will be made to this commission. Where the board does not consider it desirable to attempt the education for the position sought other positions will be considered and suggested to him, but he will not be admitted to the one for which his physical condition constitutes an irremidlable bar." -

"I had to stand on a box," the child told Annie, "because I couldn't reach up to the machine. And , whenever the Inspector came around, the men shoved me quick in behind the piles of stock and said, 'No one here under age.' And when he'd gone I came out. I was always scared. I thought maybe they'd put me in prison if they caught me. But I made f4 a week

sometimes."

The child's words, "I thought they'd

put me in prison if they caught me,'

flashed a ' sudden remembrance into Annie's mind of her one-time friend tid policeman who promised to find the baby's stolen carriage and didn't.

And of the other policeman who laugn

her, actually laughed and said, "Hah! The carriage is firewood by now!"

Before that episode, Annio had al-

she lost faith in their beneficence.

But here was a girl who might a
