Bill of Rights\" to provide benefits for men over 25 years of age who want to pursue graduate or refresher courses. While Schwabe appreciates the suggestion, he believes there is not a significant demand for this and that Congress is currently focused on other issues. Rees argues that there is a need for better trained technical men, especially older university graduates who want to pursue further education.
