GI Benefit Bill
Adds Problem'. j
To State Unit
' -' -
Unemployment benefits provid
ed under the GI bill of rights ac
tion taken by congress posed addi
tional problems for the state un
employment commission today.
With supplementary federal
benefits to returning service men
and women available in Septem
ber, state agencies already are
considering the 'bill's provisions
w ith a view to being prepared to
handle the' unemployment load...
Benefits. Provided . ..
Under, existing state laws most
veterans- are entitled either to
definite benefit amounts after re
: turning vto civilian 4ife or have
wage credits frozen from pre-war
earnings. Oregon's law comes un
der the latter classification, re
quiring the use of workers' earn
ings back as far as 1938, and cre-
a ting a considerable problem for
storage space.
The bill provides for a veterans
placement board, consistinof the
administrator of veterans affairs,
director of selective service sys?
tern and administrator of the fed
eral security agency. The veter
ans administrator, as chairman, is
responsible for making mutual
agreements with state or federal
agencies, to take the process'claims
and to pay unemployment allow
- ances. - '; ";-' ' '
Jobs Stm Plentifal "'
State, benefits must be deducted
from the $20 a week for. 52 weeks
a 1 lowed to most- veterans. r While
'eligibility rights under the state
and federal laws will be some
what similar, separate determina
tions will be mandatory because
of differences with regard to self
employment,' disqualifications and
benefit periods. - ' , ,
Because jobs still are plentiful,
few of the thousands of service
men already discharged have filed
claims for benefits under Oregon's
laws. "- - -V :':!" ' ' y ' '
Looking up frozen wage credits,
however, takes considerable time.
If a few thousand-such claims sud
denly should develop here, the en
tire claims rdetenninatlon machin
ery of the unempioyiqeiit compen
sation' commission might become
flogged.' ' - ' .
Benefits Increase .
i Unemployment benefits in June,
despite a slight increase over May,
continued at a lower level, than
last months a year ago. An aver
age of about 200 claimants a week
drew J473 fringing the year's
total' to $103,717. .
Salem look the 'lea'd in initial
claims With 39 but Astoria was far
ahead in . continued claims - with
520.

Fourteen young women., stu-
dent nurses who Monday com'
mence a three months term of
training in phychiatric nursing at
Oregon state hospital, will find
the foundations of their new spe
cialized school well laid, believes
Dr. John Evans, hospital super
intendent V ' i:"r':'('i,:-'
A class of eight from hospital
training.-courses, over the state
this past week completed ; the
course and became the first nur
ses class ever to graduate in psy
chiatry in Oregon. . ;
Alice Reasoner and Zona Lea
bo, who this week, return to The
Dalles- hospital are senior cadet
nurses while .Harryette Thomp
son and Mildred Hookland, from
Sacred Heart hospital at. Eugene,;
are Junior cadets, Helen Martin
and Beatrice Liu, who are train
ing' at Portland sanitarium and
Dorthea -Rasmussen and Sylvia
Moe, at St. Mary's hospital, As
toria, 'complete the firsf class;
. Tma. Duerksen, . who for iix
years was' at Henningsen' sani
tarium in Topeka, Kas., where
she was 4 supervisor in the post
graduate course in psychiatric
nursing, ' was in . charge of this
first class: She ; will remain at
Oregon state hospital, Dr. Evans
has announced, 'with the title of
director of education.
During their stay at the hos
pital here the nurses in jraining
engaged in the usual hospital ac
tivities but specialized in' caring
for mental cases. Both Dr. Evans
and Miss Duerksen are lavish in
their praise of the experiment
which they declare has proved a
success.' "V
Establishment of the psychiatric
training course for these cadet and
student nurses (cadet nurses are
students, but are enlisted, in the
service of the military; should
they be called to duty following
graduation and are training under
direct supervision of the military)
received . the approval of the
board of control at the request
of Dr. Evans. The nurses are
housed in one of the hospital
cottages not far from the main
institution and receive ssdall com
pensation in - addition to their
meals, lodging and some other
necessities. .
I consider psychiatric nursing
an almost unlimited field," ; Dr.
Evans declared last week in dis
cussing the hospital's entry, into
the educational circle. "The time
is not far off when these nurses
will be in great demand by men
tal instituhons.' .
In addition to having an oppor
tunity to ieal with mental cases,
cadet and student nurses were
invaluable aids' at the hospital
during the current shortage ot
womanpower and particularly of
trained : nurses. Dr. Evans said.
Most of the nurses in the In
itial class are in their early 20s,
characterized in common by en
gaging personalities, good sense
