Following is a quotation from a speech made
by W. Kerr Scott at a meeting of American
Legion Post No. 50 in Laurinburg February 18,
ini-4 .
"Veterans' benefits have been better
since World War II than ever before
in our history. But recently there have
been some signs of the program weak
ening. I think all of us should fight
against efforts to tear down the things
it took ten years to obtain ... I will al
ways stand ready to do my part."

VETERANS KNOW
Nobody knows and understands the problems of the vet
erans like another veteran. That's the case of W. Kerr Scott.
He is a veteran himself.
Here are some of the point : c:i vhich he has taken a pos
itive stand:
Scott wants applications fo * Die, ability Benefit Pensions
made simple again.
Scott is opposed to the rece~i changes in the so-called
"pauper's oath" for admission to veterans' hospitals.
Scott wants veterans put in hospitals closer to home.
Scott wants empty veterans' hospital beds filled with men
who rightfully deserve to be there.
It's plain to see that W. Ker .* Scott doesn't have to hem and
haw about veterans. He knows where he stands, and he knows
what veterans are up against. He's a veteran himself.
