Information On
Benefits For
Veterans
EDITOR'S NOTE: Below are
authoritative answers by the
Veterans Administration to
some of the many current ques
tions from former servicemen
and their families. Further in
formation on veterans bene
fits may be obtained at any
VA office.
Q.—Are members of vete
rans' families admitted as pa
tients to VA hospitals?
A—Not unless the members
are also veterans in their own
right. VA hospital care is for
veterans only except, naturally,
in cases of emergency that hap
pen in the vicinity of the hos
pital.
Q. —Can World War II or
Korean Conflict veterans get
college or similar educational
training under the law?
A.—The educational programs
for both World War II or Ko
rean Conflict veterans have
come to an end. The only edu
cational program now being
carried on by VA applied to
the children of deceased or
totally disabled veterans.
NOTE: Vocational rehabilita
tion of veterans with service
connected disabilities is a per
manent program still going on
and is not to be confused with
the educational programs.
Q.—l -was retired from the
Air Force because of disability
in December 1064 after three
years service. Will I be eligi
ble for the National Service
Life Insurance which went on
sale May 1?
A.—No. This insurance is
available only to disabled vet
erans who had service between
October 8, 1940 and December
31, 1956. You might be elipible
for a special type of Insurance
available to veterans with dis
abilities incurred in service
after April 25. 1991. You would
have one year after the VA
notifies you that your disability
is service connected In which to
apply.

such problems as sexual ad
justment, how to run a house
hold, what to spend a slim bud
get on, how in-laws should be
treated, what contraceptive
method to use, he nt many chil
dren to have and when to start
having them.
Any one of these can lead to
a quarrel. But a quarrel can be
destructive—or it can be crea
tive, Mrs. Nash points out. If
each partner seeks only to
have his own way, if the object
is win, the quarrel will settle
little. If, on the other hand,
newlyareds try to learn why
certain views are held, and
what they signify, the mar
riage bond can become strong

UL SECY CALLS
FOR SANCTION
ON BIAS SCHOOLS
NEW YORK The National
Education Ass'n was aaked by
a civil rights leader here to
Invoke sanctions against edu
cators who uphold segregation
in the schools.
In a speech prepared for de
livery at 6:30 p.m. today (June
23) to NEA's Commission on
Teacher Education and Profes
sional Standards in the Com
modore Hotel. Whitney M.
Young, Jr., executive director
of the National Urban League,
declared:
"I A'ould call on the carpet
any administrator who refusee
to allow Negro teachers to in
struct white pupils or who tries
to shunt them into non-con
tract' jobs. I would make it a
violation of ethics whenever
qualified Negro faculty mem
bers are denied promotions or
ether opportunities."
Young said that NEA's Na
tional Commission on Rights
and Responsibilities should re
buke or purge offending educa
tors from its membership rolls.
Where violators persist In
wrong-doing, he said, NEA
could ask the State Superinten.
dent of Public Instruction to
lift the vilator's license.
NEA has been known to in
voke sanctions against an en
tire school district and can
urge its members not to accept
positions in one hit by an
NEA ban.
Young told NEA It could
play a key role In cracking
•egregated educational pattern*
both in the North and South.
"I tee a violation of ethics
every time a (egregated school
i> built in a ghetto. 1 see a vio
lation whenever Negro pupils
are denied first-rate facilities,
first-rate teachers, and first
rate books that tell them they
are part of the human family.

10. Whenever you can, stay

is a necessity.
12. A slow steady rate of
work, with short rest periods
taken in the shade, will get the
wb done without doing you in.
When your work makes you
short of breath or causes chesl
pain, either you are working
too fast or the work is too
hard for you. Report to your
doctor whenever a job you are
accustomed to doing easily
seems difficult or causes dis
comfort.
