HEALING THE H¥RTS
OF DISABLE MEN
More Than 200,000 Are lhder Treat
ment Here and Oversea--Provision
Made for Compension aid Insurance
President Wilson, in a letter to the
Federal Board for Vocational Educa
tion, has called attention to the fact
that the government stands squarely
hack of its disabled righting men. Ilia
letter follows:
This nation has no more solemn ob.
K.—'ion than healing the hurts of our
*TTotid and restoring our .disabled
tnen to civil life and opportunity.
Ths government recognizes this, and
the, lulflllment of the obligation is
going forward fully and generously.
The medical divisions of the war and
navy departments are rendering all
aid that skill and science make pos
sible; the Federal Board for Voca
tional Education is commanded by
law to develop and adapt the remain
ing capabilities of each man so that
he may again take his place in the
ranks of our great civilian army. The
co-operation and interest of our citi
zens is essential to this program of
duty, justice, and humanity. It is not
a charity. It is merely the payment
of a draft of honor which the United
States of America accepted when it
selected these men. and took them In
their health and strength to tight the
battles of the nation. They have
fought the good tight; they have kept {
the faith, and they have won. Now
we keep faith with them, and every
citizen is indorsee on the general
obligation.
Under authority and direction of
the Congress, complete arrangements
for rehabilitation of our disabled men
have been made by the Federal Board
for Vocational- Education.
• According to estimata made since
the announcement of the total Amer
ican overseas casualties, there are
more than 200.000 disabled men un
der treatment in the hospitals In thl*
country and overseas. Of this num
ber more than one-fourth have been
disabled by disease. Contrary to the
reneral idea of the casualty list, only
a very small percentage of the total
have suffered disabilities which re
sulted in the amputation of limbs.
Tt is not merely the men who have
lost arms or legs that the government
is offering to retrain and restore t
self-supporting activity, but the Fed
eral Board offers Its aid to over
man, regardless of his disability
who is entitled to government corr
pensation. The board realises tb-t
the many thousands of men who ge
suffering from the effects of
shock, gassing, shrapnel, and ftin
shot wounds which weaken their ft's
tems, tuberculosis, bronchitis, lrff
and nervous diseases, all may be on
able to re-enter their former oc*>Pd
tlons. To all these inen, as to -h o "*
with more evident handicaps, the
Federal Board Is extending opp'ttun- 1 ,
it jr.
Within the next few montHi eev-l;
eral thousand disabled men wHi be
training under JurlsUlctioa of thaf
federal board and at the ex,ene or

actually placed in training were l® ll -j

JV war risk insurance officer at the
ftlnp or cantonment, from whom he
Aay Z*t Bureau of War Risk Insur
ance Form 628, which he must fill
out in order to prove his eligibility
for such compensation.
If it is not possible to get in con
tact with this war risk insurance ef
fleer. the soldier or sailor should call
upon or write the Bureau of War
Risk Insurance at Washington. D. C..
slating his case: or he should call
on or write the district officer of the
Federal Board for Vocational Educa
tion in which he is located.
If the soldier or sailor is suffering
from a disability, he Is also eligible
for help by the Federal Board for
Vocational Education in securing em- 1
ployment. which help will be given
him in co-operation wlththe employ
ment service of the Department of
Tabor. If he is eligible for compen
sation under the War Risk Insurance,
act. he Is also entitled to training and
placement bv the Federal Board fori
Vocational Education, provided he Is '
not able to follow his old occupa-I
tion successfully without traintng or j
needs to be trained for some new and -
suitable occupation for which training
is feasible.
The- Federal Board for Vocational
Education will bear the entire cost of
the man's training. It will pay for
his tuition: it will furnish him with
hooks and other necessary supplies,
and it will pay all other expenses
that may arise in connection with his
training During the time he is fol
lowing a course of Instruction with
the Federal Board he will, if a sin
gle man without dependents or a man ■
required by his course of instruc- |
tion to live apart from his depend
ents. he paid by the government at;
least tB5 per month. He may be paid
more. If. for example, he received i
more than $65 per month as pay for ,
his last month of active service, lie!
will receLve this same pay during his (
entire emirse of traintng. Further-|
more. If Ms disability Is such that his ;
monthly compensation under the '
War Risk Insurance act Is greater
than $65. he will, of course, continue
to receive this sum. whatever it may
he, during his entire course.
A married mgn and his wife will j
receive $75 per month from the gov-j
ernment. provided they live together j
while he Is taking a course of In- |
structiOn. If his course is such that :
he must live apart from his wife, the .
government will pay him $65 per !
mohth and lits wife $3O per month, j
The larger his family the largjer the !
amount paid by the government for |
Its support, whether living together,
or sepsrately while he is being edu- j
cated.
The same allowance and allotment
will be paid to dependents as was \
paid to them while the man was In |
the active service. If he le married. !
his wife will receive 630 a month. :
If he has a wife and child they will |
receive $4O a month, and $lO will be
paid for each additional child up to j
three. If he has a mother dependent i
upon him uhe will receive the same
emount she recelrd while he was In ,
the service. . . .
In the case of a commissioned of
ficer undergoing training the support)
paid by the government will always
equal the pay for the last month of
active service, an amount always in 1
excess of the minimum guarantee of i
$65 per month. He will be expected
to maintain his dependents out of the
•egount paid him while undergoing
training: •
When the disabled soldier has com
pi>xea fits course of training he will
leuxive the compensation prescribed
by the War Risk Insurance act so
lev* %s his disability continues.
Tnt there Is danger of confusing
compensation with insurance pay
ments.is shown In the cases of some
nlscnarged men to whom compensa
tion bad been granted for injuries re
line of duty and who have
discontinued payments of their Inaur

they have discontinued such premium
