The Post rightly says that one reason_for the indifference af youti to technical vocations has been lack of training facilities. Vocational high schools, even if available, can do only u small part of this big iab. Tlfough the present set-up of "rehab" schools has been labelled temporary and non-civilian, the D0mlfll3l1 lcgislation-—the Vo- cational Training Ca-erdination Act of l942— under which it operates, and the equipment and staffs organized to train veter- ans, are available as permanent establishments.
