Excerpt from To Create a Bureau for the Deaf and Dumb in the Department of Labor and Prescribing the Duties Thereof: Hearing Before the Committee on Education, House of Representatives, Sixty-Fifth Congress, Second Session on H. R. 244; February 13, 1918 As some of you gentlemen know I had the privilege of being in England and France several weeks this fall, and on the outskirts of London we were taken to a great military hospital where men who had been made deaf from shell shock were being trained in methods by which they might gain a living. Of course, that phase of it has come up as an afterthought to the original introduction of the bill. I do not want to take any more time of the committee in argu ment. The necessity is apparent to every person. Mr. Towner. Mr. Johnson, you know there is a provision in one of the bills that endeavors to take care of those that are maimed and wounded. I think it is in the war-risk insurance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
