Germany is believed to have held herself up to such a high stage of eco nomic power by utilizing the services of 85 per cent, or more, of the wound ed men sent home from the battle ironis quickly and efficiently tr.ir.cd in productive occupations which they can follow in spite of the loss of an arm or a leg or some other disability, these men are utilized by the German government to the maximum extent of their productive power, thereby sus taining the nation. Senator Smith's bill would provide for such training as would render dis abled men not only valuable to the nation, but able to support themselves. To Ship Bodies of Soldiers Home WASHINGTON, I).
