Employ-Handicapped Week
Actively Observed Here
Sunday the nation began its observance of national employ
the physically handicapped week, October 3-9, and one of the
slogans is "Hire the handicapped, it's good business not because
of his handicap, but in spite of it."
As the week is observed an effort will be made to stress the
; "fact that the handicapped can
perform many duties in spite
of the handicap and quite fre
quently are the most proficient
workers. In Salem speakers not
only will carry this information
to the public but it will be
brought to them through win
dow displays, posters, adver
tisements, news stories and
posters.
I Statistics released recently
show there is more than one dis
abled veteran among every 10
In Oregon or 17,000 in all-services
connected disabilities. Civ
ilian handicaps are more numer
ous and are estimated at six
times as many as the veterans.
While many of the handicap
ped have received special train-
ng and are gainfully employed
It is estimated over 500,000 are
now unemployed in the nation
with 130,000 of these veterans.
Given as examples of famous
personages who had physical
handicaps are: Sarah Bernhardt,
actress, amputee; Connie Bos
well, singer, paralysis; Helen
Keller, humanitarian, deaf
blind; Elizabeth Barret Brown
ing, poet, paralysis; Steinmetz,
inventor, hunchback; Wiley
Post, flier, partially blind;
Franklin D. Roosevelt, states
man, paralysis; Senator Gore,
blind; Washington Irving, au
thor, tuberculosis; Bill Stern,
radio sports announcer, ampu
tee; Von Beethoven, composer,
