Congress urged to act on World War I veterans training plan

The five provisions demand training for disabled veterans and widows or orphans, comprehensive medical care, equal pay during training, and monthly stipends of 100 dollars for trainees with higher benefits for dependents. John Thomas Taylor urged training for families of deceased soldiers, noting 50,000 children deserve educational advantages.
