REHABILITATION PLANS
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, August 31. “This training school will become part and parcel 'of a big educational scheme necessary in the work of rehabilitation,” said Mr M. Moohan, chairman of the Rehabilitation Board, at a ceremony at which the Hon. P. C. Webb, opened a school of carpentry in Auckland. “Men who are now serving with the forces,” Mr Moohan continued, “will be entitled to all the facilities of the Dominion for the purpose of equipping them to take their part in civil life. This not only applies to training carpenters and other artisans, but equally to men who desire to enter the professions. Arrangements will be made for such men to take up studies right through the universities. The same facilities will also be provided for farmers at agricultural colleges, and for disabled soldiers special vocational centres will be provided. I hope many thousands of returned men. will desire work in the building trades. Houses are urgently required, and we must see that men who build houses and every other wage worker are given economic security.”
