Designed to assist community groups in developing a program for the reabsorption of returning veterans to civilian life, an “attitude education” kit, characterized as “a welcome contribution to veteran welfare” by General Omar N. Bradley, Administrator of Veterans Affairs, was presented to him yesterday in his office at the Veterans’ Administration by Mrs. Alfred M. Bachrach of New York City, chairman of the Women’s Division of the National Jewish Welfare Board.
General Bradley commended Mrs. Bachrach and the organization she represented in the preparation of the kit, saying that “although it is well recognized that the veteran faces many new and strange problems in his return to civilian life, what many people do not seem to be sufficiently aware of is that the attitudes and actions of civilians toward the former service man and woman also need guidance and direction.”
