Show MEED FAITH AND CONFIDENCE Positions Open for Newly Trained Victims of World War Before They Are Ready. That the rehabilitated World war feteran's success In life depends absolutely upon his faith In himself, s the assertion of Maj. W. F. Lent, Chief of the employment service of the United States veterans' bureau which has In charge the proper training train-ing of thousands of disabled service men. Major Lent, In speaking before the headquarters staff of the American Legion In Indianapolis, said that the Legion and the Legion Auxiliary had asi one of their greatest obligations the task of Instilling into the hearts of service men an absolute faith and confidence In themselves and their abilities to cope with life's problems. He said that the government is to have a place for every veteran three or four months before the veteran is ready to take It. "We do not guarantee that a man who has studied to be a factory superintendent will be placed In that position," the major explained, "but he will be placed In the path so that he can obtain such a position through his own initiative and ability. " Fe want employers to understand, too, that these men are no longer cripples. They may be physically crippled, but not Industrially or vocationally. vo-cationally. When we put a man with one arm Into a Job, he Is as well able, and perhaps more so, to do that particular work as Is the man with two arms." |
