V. MacDonald, man ager of the Eugene office of the United States employment serv ice, explained Wednesday. MacDonald said that to date approximately 600 veterans from coast to coast have taken advan tage of apprentice training, and as many as 200,000 eventually may apply. However, fewer than 100 throughout the country have applied for and are receiving the monthly allowances provided by the "GI bill of Tights." Eugene has seven who are receiving this aid, he said. The manager stressed the ad vantages of such payments to vet erans wishing to build up their earnings during the initial yean of industrial training. He observed that probably one of the reasons for the small cum ber of veterans taking advantage of the training offered is that many jobs are open In war in dustries and veterans, through re ferral by the USES, are filling these jobs. When the war's end brings large-scale cutbacks in war plants, more and more vet erans may be expected to enter apprentice training, he said. This training is provided by the war manpower commission, in its ap prentice training program. The "GI bill of rights" author izes the veterans' administration to supplement the veteran ap prentice's wages with a subsist ence allowance of $50 to $75 a month, depending on whether he has dependents, MacDonald said. The combined earnings may not exceed regular journeyman's wages in the trade for which he is framing. In cooperation with the Oregon apprenticeship council and with other state councils, labor unions, management groups and veterans' organizations', this program U aimed at building a foundation structure to give returning vet erans their choice of entry into local programs of bona fide ap prenticeship training for more than 120 skilled jobs in the build ing trades and other fields, ac cording to MacDonald. Further explanation of the pro gram, and assistance in applying for the allowances, are available at the USES office, 1133 Willam ette.

Tank is the new "General Jackson"! (M-36), produced at Fisher Body's Flint and Grand Blanc,; Mich., plants. Mrs. Luella P.
