Offices are now open in fourteen of the chief cit ies of the United States to receive the applications of disabled soldiers and sailors of the American army and navy f or free education to equip them for the voration for which they are mo.st fitted.. These offices have been established -by the federal board for vocations and are In the following cit ies: Washington. Philadelphia. New York. Boston, Atlanta, New Orleans, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Dallas, Denver, Chicago, Minnesota, San Francisco and Seattle. At each office are stationed men to advise the ldsabled fighters as to what they are entitled to receive, a medical officer and a man to ob'ain employ ment for them when they are ready To go. to work. It is promised by the federal board that applications will be sympathetically coniedered with the best interests of the disabled men inj mind. While receiving education the gov ernment will' pay the disabled man (85 a month and in addition will pro vide him with the funds necessary to pay . educational fees. - Each man accepted for re-education will be sent to an institution giving special courses Lti..the line he has chosen or will be Riven Instruction in any indusry he wishes to learn. ? During his training, period allow ances will be made by the government to his. dependent such as wife, child ren and mother. These will be fixed in " proportion to the amount they re ceived while he was in active service. When the disabled man has finished his training, the federal board prom ises to have employment ready for him. ' After he has gone to work again his compensation from the war risk insurance begins and will continue un affected by the amount of his earn ings. - v 1 In making these announcements the GOULD HARDLY GET HER BREATH federal bourd for vocational' (jijcatiou stutes: I ; "The worst mistake a disabled man can make is to drift into a low grade, unskilled occupbfon. Without any training he must compete wi.ta the normal man tn a line of work where brute strength and physical ntness alone count and there can be no doubt as to the outcome when work becomes slack. Every consideration " requires that a disabled man should obtain permanent employment at a desirable age to the position for which he is best fitted or for which he can be come best fitted. Otherwise his career will consist of alternate periods of more or less undesirable employment, idleness, trying to live on his pension and picking up an occupation. No Rlf-respecting veteran of this great war can affcrd to be placed in this po sition. There is orly one escape by which these men may make their fu ture safe and that is if training is necessary to obtain it through the federal board for vocational educa tion. "The temptation to take these low- grade, unskilled Jobs is very strong while war prices prevail, especially as pay is higher because there is a lack of help and the quality of the work is not looked at too closely: but jobs commanding war prices and em ploying large numners or particularly skilled or unskilled hands are not al ways going to exist. Th0y are soon going to shrink to normal conditions. What then? The answer is unfortu nately very simple. The law of supply and demand is not going to stop work ing because there have been some nvn who have been soldiers and who in curred disabilities In defense of the country. If there is only paying work for so manv hands, the supply oi hands must be cut down. When this happens, the man who cannot turn out as much or as eood work ns a sound man Is going to lose his Job, because of his deficiency and the, sound man is going to keep hs Job. That means the disabled man will be out of a Job and will drift nbout from one tempo rary emnlovement to the other, meet ing rebuff after rebuff and becoming of less value as time goes on. .

Rome, Noy 17.- The Conservator Romano, the official Vatican organ, today prints a letter from Pope Bene dict to Cardinal Gasparri, the papal secretary of state, In which the pon tiff says that after the recent happy success of the Italian armies efforts were made to excite in the Italian pub lie mind, the belief that the pope had experienced some regrets of the vic tory. The letter points out that in a papal letter on the first or August, 1917, and on other occasions, "we have expressed repeated wishes that the territorial questions between Aus tria and Italv receive a solution con formable to the Just aspirations of the people, and recently we have given ln- s'ructions to tne nuncio at Vienna iu establish friendly relations with the different nationalities of the Austro Hungarian empire which are now con stituted independent states."

Fortunately, congress enabled ns l to organize our division of venereal diseases a sufficient time ahead of the coming of peace to enable us to make appreciable headway in the task of securing clean communities to which our returning soldiers mav come. And, while the job of fighting vice diseases is first. Inst and all the time, a civilian Job, it must not be forgot ten that it was the vast amount of venereal disease that was creeping in to our military service from civil life that first awakened us to the need of the work. The estimates of some of the military authorities were to the effect that no less than five-sixths of all the vice disease in the army was brought there from civil life." Statistics dealing specifically with I venereal disease among the men en tering the training camns have Just been issued. These figures deal with one million men, a quota from every state in the union. These figures show that the state sending the least proportion of men afflicted with vice diseases was Oregon with .59 per cent. The largest percentage of infected men was furnished by Florida with 8.9 per cent. Statistics dealing with this sub ject since congress placed the whole matter in charge of the U.
