Half Million Vets Training- BY ROWLAND EVANS JR. Almost a hal million veterans of World War I are taking training on the job un der the GI bill of rights. They represent 40 per cent of all veter ans enrolled under the GI bill's education provisions. Many of the half-million jol trainees are throwing away educational privileges which, over the four-year maximum period of schpo'ling, could represent $9,500 worth of free education. They're throwing away this education be cause they're using up their al loted time in on-the-job training programs neither give train ing nor lead to better jobs.

SplU Is Reported An official of the retraining and re-employment administration (ERA) told me something else. He said' he couldn't substantiate it but he- was certain it could be proved if facilities were available to 'do so. He said some employers get veterans to sign up for on-the- job training and then split with the veteran the $65 or $90 subsistence allowance. Some veterans, out of work and clothed in mental khaki, are willing to make such an arrangement. It assures them a small income loi up to four years, depending upon how much GI education time thej earned in the service.

The reason it's possible for em ployers and veterans to get to gether on a scheme like this in some states is that the states which have the responsibility of supervising job-training outfits claim they can't afford to do the supervising. Funds to Stales States will soon ret funds to keep an eye peeled all unscrupulous job-training practices The president last week signed a bill which will accomplish this end The same law establishes a set of "mmimum standards" to which allTstate approval agencies must conform. These minimum sland- an should go far toward eliminat- inj evil practices on the part of bo employers and veterans in the joft-training program. Many tangible and worth-while benefits accrue to the veteran who signs up for job-training. Undo ibtedly a great part of million vets now in job-training programs are getting out of the pr gram what the law intended.
