Local Sources of Financial
Chowan Veterans Receive Funds
SPECIAL TO THE HERALD
NEW YORK - A number of
World War veterans living in
Chowan County will have their
bankrolls enlarged this year by
some Jll.dbO.
That is the amount they will
receive approximately, as
their share of a $303,800,000 cash
dividend to be distributed by the
Veterans Administration.
It will go to those World War
veterans who have kept their GI
insurance policies in force.
This year’s dividend is the
biggest ever declared, the VA
states. It is larger than before
because the interest earned by
the trust funds governing the
policies was unusually high in
the past year.
Participating in the
distribution, nationally, will be
nearly 138,000 World War I
veterans who hold United States
Government Life Insurance
policies and 3,750,000 World War
II vets who have National
Service Life Insurance.
Os the 590 veterans of the two
World Wars residing in Chowan
County, only about one-fourth
ol them will be on the receiving
end, the figures indicate. They
are the ones who held on to their
policies.
Veterans of the Korean and
Vietnam wars are covered by
other kinds of insurance and
will not share in this
distribution.
Os the 140 in the local area
who do qualify, the one§ who
were in World War I will receive
an average of $156. Those who
saw service in the second World
War will get $75, on average.
. THE CHOWAN HERALD
Aid - Students are encouraged
to keep in touch with their
respective high school guidance
counselors in order that they
may be aware of the various
kinds of scholarships granted
by home town civic clubs,
church groups or other
nonprofit associations or
foundations.
Applicaiton forms for
financial assistance can be
obtained from a high school
guidance counselor or the
Financial Aid Office at College
of The Albemarle.
“Students wantng to apply
should complete applications as
soon as possible, while funds are
still available,” advised Gary
, Parsons, director of Student
Financial Aid.
“One out of three students
receive some type of financial
aid,” Parsons said, “In the past
two years, no student that has
had a justified finacial need has
been turned away.”
The actual amounts paid will
be larger or smaller than these
averages in individual cases
since the dividends depend upon
such variables as the size and
type of the policy, the age of the
recipient and the like.
The SII,OOO that will be going
to Chowan County vets will
arrive, automatically, on the
anniversary dates of their
policies. No application is
necessary.
Many ex-servicemen in the
local area and elsewhere will
gain in other directions this
year, the VA states. Under
legislation enacted in
December, 1973, about 2.400,000
veterans or their dependents
who are receiving monthly
benefits under two programs—
the Veterans Pension Program
and the Dependents Indemnity
and Compensation Program
will be getting a 10 per cent
increase in their montly
pensions, effective
immediately.
JOB CORPS INTERVIEW
Hazel Tayloe, Job Corps
counselor, will be interviewing
in the office of Economic
Resource Center on North
Oakum Street during the
morning hours of March 13.
The Veterans Administration,
which recently announced
plans for a cardiovascular
diagnostic and training center
at its Allen Park hospital near
Detroit, say specialized medical
care facilites have been
increased by almost 200 per
cent since 1969.
HOUSING NEEDED
FOR 4.8 MILLION
BROILERS...
Sounds like an awful lof of broiler houses but actually it's
300. Already 10% of the growers needed to build this number of
houses here in northeast North Carolina have broilers in or have
houses under construction.
The heavy demand for Perdue broilers in northeast markets
is the reason for Perdue expansion locally. Perdue spent in
excess of $1 million promoting its dressed broilers in major
metropolitan areas in 73 and this amount will be increased in
74. Perdue has 15% of the New York City broiler market, 15%
of the Boston-Providence market and 7% of the Philadelphia.
PERDUE IS THE BRAND CHICKEN WHICH
SHOPPERS ARE WILLING TO PAY A PREMIUM
FOR AND THIS IS THE REASON PERDUE CAN
GUARANTEE MORE TO GET CHICKENS GROWN
THAN OTHER NORTH CAROLINA BROILER
COMPANIES. JUST CALL AHOSKIE 332-5246 OR
ROANOKE RAPIDS 537-5029 TO GET A PERDUE
REPRESENTATIVE TO VISIT YOU AND EXPLAIN
THE PERDUE BROILER CONTRACT.
APPROXIMATELY 10 ACRES OF LAND IS RE
QUIRED.
