Can I get treatment from VA again. A-Yes. Since you have already established service connection for your disability, all you need do is apply for treatment again. Q-I am in the1 military service, where I work in a medical laboratory, How could I go about getting a similar job with the Veterans Administration after I'm discharged? A-Suggest you contact the personnel office of the nearest VA hospital for information on job opportunities at the agency's hospitals and clinics. Also check on employment under a Veterans Readjustment Act appointment, which if you qualify, would eliminate much of the paper work usually associated with Civil Service appointment. Q-The national cemetery in my state has been closed because of lack of space. Will the Veterans Administration pay an additional allowance for my father, a World War II veteran, for burial in a private cemetery? A-Yes. VA is authorized to pay a $150 plot allowance, in addition to the maximum $250 burial benefit, for veterans buried outside national cemeteries. Veterans who plan to travel or establish residence abroad should check on availability of benefits before departure, the Veterans Administration warns.

' 7 ' M; i r " it V ' '"'i "I t I ft v NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF MINORITY CONSULTANTS and Urbanologists (NAMCU) staff members Frank W; Render II, Executive Director: Mary Jo Douds, Director of Information Services; and Warren L. Taylor, Deputy Director, discuss the Association's programs at his Washington, D.C. headquarters, where it provides marketing, information and management services to its minority consultant members across the country. NAMCU Grows Into Strong Trade Association From almost certain failure, a demoralized staff, and an unsuccessful program, the National Association of Minority Consultants and Urbanologists (NAMCU) has reversed itself in less than a year and has become one of the nation's most viable minority trade associations. And as a result of its successful sole sponsorship of a major industry-wide, conference and educational seminar in Chicago last month, NAMCU has regained the national spotlight. NAMCU was organized in 1969 as a professional organization, but did not obtain operational funds until late 1972 through a contract with the Office of Minority Business Enterprise of the U.S. Department of Commerce. After a faltering beginning, NAMCU's Board of Directors in the summer of 1973 named Frank W. Render II as the second Executive Director of the Association. Render, who is an experienced government and educational administrator, has. served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Eaual Opportunity Director of the Syracuse Human Rights Commission and has taught at several universities, including Syracuse University', and Virginia State College. A Ph. D. Candidate in Mass Communications at Syracuse University, Render is a member of the governing boards of his undergaduate college, Hampton Institute, and Virginia State CollegHe is also a Director of the Educational Policy Center in New York and President of Economic Growth Systems in Washington. During the first ten months of his directorship, Render has turned NAMCU into a strong trade association with expanded membership including Black and Spanish-speaking individual consultants and consulting firms from around the country. The Association now provides direct marketing serVices for its members to both the private and public sectors, disseminates information on business opportunities to them, assists in 'the establishments of temporary consortia of firms to undertake large-scale projects, provides a nationwide identification and referral of minority professionals, and provides management and business services to its members and other minority consultants.

The old red house on it will be demolished. A few real facts about your future. You know you have the ability. You want the chance to put it together. The Navy is a good place to start. You have over 70 career fields to choose from . . .and you can learn one of over 300 different skills. And you get on-the-job training to go with your classroom work. And you get paid while you're learning. Of course, you have to earn it. You have to measure up to high Navy standards and show a willingness to do your share of the housekeeping chores. But when you're finished, you're ready to make it with a career . . . in the Navy or somewhere else later on. The opportunity is for real . . . and so are we. NAVY If you can deal with it Joe Diggs 11 urange m. .see Dick Walker, Jr. by Joe Black "He has allowed me to to the mountain top, and I looked over and saw the promised land." Dr. Martin Luther King said that. I choose to believe that he meant that Black people will overcome slum housing. Poverty. High unem ployment. And all the other socio-economic inequi ties that exist for us today. But then I read or listen to some of the rhetoric and philosophical aspirations of younger Blacks, and realize that many of them, and I, are at opposites. Too often today, our young people are more caught up with talking, shouting, and drawing crowds. It's cool, of course, to chant racism, hate, and blame our woes on the white man. But talk is cheap. That's the easy, inexpensive way. The vocal groups build their ego and popularity. But they don't stop the hunger pains of others. Or gain benefits for the poor. Because, too often, "The Man" is out of it, behind closed doors, high atop some office pinnacle. Not some mountain top. I firmly believe the time has come to stop being Super-Coons. Raving, ranting, and rationalizing won't do it. Instead, we must get into it. Really into it. And begin to acquire the education and skills that will enable us to compete for the better paying jobs. After all, when all the shouting dies down, only one sound will help reduce the number of Blacks living in impoverished slum areas. The sweet sound of money. Durham, N.
