Q ~ I have just completed
three years of Army service
and plan to enter college under
the G. I. Bill this coming fall.
If I work while attending col
lege, will the amount of money
I earn be deducted from my
G. I. Bill allowance?
A - No. The amount of
G. L Bill education Allowance
paid by the Veterans Adminis
tration is determined only by
the amount of schooling you
receive (i.e. full-time, half-time
or quarter-time training), plus
the number of your dependents.
Whether you work or have
other income does not affect
your VA allowance.
However, an outside job
could affect your school sche
dule - that is whether or not
you will be allowed to carry a
full-time course.
Q - My pension from the
Veterans Administration was
increased the first of the year.
Was this an automatic cost
of-living increase and will the
pension be raised again next
year if living costs continue to
rise?
A - The increase in your
VA pension was not automatic.
It resulted from a law passed
by Congress last year restructur
ing the VA pension program
and providing for increases
depending upon the amount of
the recipient's Income. Since it
is not automatic, any future
increases in pension amounts
must be legislated by Congress.
Q - The Veterans Adminis
tration pays $250 toward the
burial expense of deceased
eligible veterans. Is this allow
ance also payable when inter
ment is in a national cemetery
where there is no charge for
the burial plot?
A - Yes. The place of burial
makes no difference. The $250
allowance is paid toward the
total funeral expense.
Q - My Aunt is the widow
of a Spanish-American War
veteran. She receives S7O a
month pension from the Vete
rans Administration. However,
a friend of hers, who is also a
Spanish-American War vete
ran's widow receives $75 ft
month from the VA Why the

Scholarship
Drive for Grads
CHARLOTTE- A scholar
ship program that will permit
a limited number of Negro high
school graduates to continue
their education at Central Pied
mont Community College was
announced today by Humble
Oil and Refining Company.
The scholarships, each of
which will cover a six-quarter
curriculum at Central Pied
mont, are specifically designed
to attract high school graduates
who had not previously plan
ned to attend college, accord
ing to T. G. Larimer, Employee
Relations Manager for Hum
ble's Southeastern Region.
"We have tried to develop a
program, and a procedure for
selection, that will bring addi
tional young people into the
business world with marketable
skills," Larimer said, "Graduat
ing seniors from local high
schools who have already made
plans to attend a four-year
college will not be eligible for
one of these scholarships."
Initially, Humble will fund
five scholarships at Central
Piedmont, two in secretarial
science and three in accounting.
Each scholarship recipient
will receive a grant that will
cover the cost of tuition and
books, plus a weekly allowance
that will range from $25 a
week the first quarter to $35
a week the second through
fourth quartos. During the fifth
difference?
A - The $75 check goes to
the widow of a Spanish-Ameri
can War veteran who was
married to the veteran during
all or part of that war. The
widow such as your aunt,
apparently, who married such
a veteran after the war receives
the S7O monthly check.
Q - I was awarded a pension
from the Veterans Administra
tion last year. My wife and I
are planning to sell our home
and move to Florida. Will the
sale of the home effect my
pension?
A - Not directly. Proceeds
from the sale of property are
not considered income for vete
rans under the present pension
law. However, you are advised

ent will be given a part-time

will guarantee him a minimum

"Continuation of the Scho
larship and the living allowance,
of course, depends on the stu

cause net worth is also a con
sideration under the pension
law in determining pension
entitlement.
While you live in the home
its value is not reportable as
part of your net worth, but
when you convert it to cash,
the cash is considered part of
net worth.

Approximately 100 Families Left
Homeless by Disaster Get Aid
WASHINGTON—Approxi -
mately 100 families left home
less by separate disasters in
two Mississippi communities
are eligible or have already
moved into emergency mobile
home housing as a result of the
work by a special Presidential
fact-finding mission that visited
the disaster areas this week.
Robert J. Brown, special
assistant to President Nixon,
reported Saturday that Hous
ing and Urban Development
Secretary George Romney has
set aside 100 mobile homes
to meet emergency housing
needs for victims of an explo
sion in Laurel and for families
whose homes were levelled by
a tornado that ripped through
the Hazelhurst ares.
The mobile homes are being
made available to families in
the disaster communities as
needs are certified by local
housing authorities.
Brown said eight units al
ready are occupied in Laurel
and 10 additional units now
are in varying stages of readi
ness for occupancy. Upward to
32 additional units can be
assigned to Laurel if needed.
On Saturday 12 units ar
rived in Hazelhurst and 38
additional mobile home units
can be sent to that community
on the request of local authori
ties.
The results generated by the
Presidential fact- finders
prompted Laurel Mayor Fern
Bucklew to send the following
telegram to Secretary Romney:
"Deeply grateful for your
concern and prompt response
to our need in Laurel, Miss.
Your capable representatives
were our guests Monday. They
represented very favorably and
forcefully both your office and
President Nixon in their per
sonal inspection tour. Our en
tire city says thank you for
prompt performance rather
than empty promises."
Brown reported Aaron Hen
ry of the Mississippi NAACP
and the Rev. Alan Johnson of
the Mississippi A
state and local officials gave
their full cooperation with the
Presidential fact-finders.
The trailer units are being
provided at an estimated total
