Nov. 26—World War II veterans numbering 758 had re l funded §36,350.50 in payments of unemployment and self-employ ment allowances made concurrent ly with remuneration of subsist- I ences while they were engaged in on-the-job training or in study at i schools and colleges from Septem ber 13 through November 22, it is announced by Chairman Henry E. Kendall, of the State Unemploy ment Compensation commission. Total demands had been made upon 2.314 veterans for the re turn of $189,381.00 involved in what were found to be concurrent payments. These demands con tinue to go out daily as the reports come in from Veterans Adminis tration and a check with UCC rec ords shows the concurrent pay ments. Also, funds are being re turned daily by veterans when demands are made for the refunds. Dema'nds were made in the period stated upon 2,139 veterans who received $153,686.00 in un employment allowances and in re sponse, 693 veterans refunded $27,081.00. In case of self-employed claim ants, demand was made on 175 such veterans for the refund of $35,695.00 in concurrent payments, resulting in the refund of $9,- 269.50 by 65 veterans. If the refund is not made by a veteran in a reasonable time, the case is referred to the Veterans Administration for final disposi tion, unless there is evidence of fraud. If evidence of fraud exists, the case is set for hearing before an appeals deputy of the UCC. If fraud is established the veteran is deprived of all further benefits under the G. I. Bill of Rights and the case is turned over to the Vet erans Administration for prosecu tion. These concurrent payments are revealed after schools and colleges report the veterans attending them under the G. I. Bill of Rights to the Veterans Administration in Winston-Salem and the Veterans Administration sends this informa tion to the UCC. The UCC in turn checks its files of all those who have received unemployment or self-employed allowances and thus discovers the concurrent payments. When the overlapping is discover ed, the UCC through its chief claims deputy, S. F. Teague, makes demand upon the veteran for the amount involved. Veterans have appealed from the demands and hearings have been held in 25 or 30 cases. In practically every case the appeals deputy upheld the validity of the demand. In a few cases, the vet erans had refunded the overlap ping funds drawn to the Veterans Administration after the appeal had been made and thus got a clean slate. Rarely, Chairman Kendall be lieves, do the veterans receive these concurrent payments in definite efforts to defraud the government. Most of it is due to overlapping periods of allowances and subsist ence or remuneration and the lag between payments, he thinks. SEND 10,000 FLAGS Due to the shortage of textiles, the Danish Red Cross asked the loan of 10,000 Red Cross flags from the American Red Cross to assist in the November fund cam paign in Denmark. Shipment of the flags, in four sizes, was made recently as a gift from the Ameri can Red Cross. LEAVE FOR NEW HOME' The Rev. D. C.
