Vats Administration
Should Bt Informed
Veterans who are in training un
der the G. I. Bill should make cer
tain when their training is com
pleted or interrupted, that the
'Veterans Administration is inform
. «d of that fact, according to the
VA. Otherwise the veteran will
receive one or more subsistence
checks for a period when he was
wet actually in training, and the
checks will have to be returned.
A veteran is not entitled to sub
sistence allowances for any month
in which he is not training, the
veteran, as well as the school or
college concerned or the on-job
training establishment, should see
to it that the VA is notified writh
eut any delay when a veteran's
training is completed or interrupt
ed, the VA said.
If a veteran receives a check for
payment to which he is not en
titled, it should be returned tn the
U. S. Treasury Department, rather
than to the Veterans Administra
tion. If the check is not returned,
the VA is required to collect the
overpayment.
Q. Does a veteran have to be
honorably discharged to be award
ed monetary benefits of VA ?
A. Under existing laws, it is
not necessary for a veteran to have
am honorable discharge to be award
ed benefits. However, it is neces
sary that he be discharged under
conditions other than dishonor
able.
Q. As a World War II veteran,
trill I have to pay a fee to have
someone represent me in my claim
for benefits for VA?
A. If you are represented by
an official of an accredited service
organisation or the American Red
Cross, there is no fee. If you are
represented by a lawyer or agent
who has been admitted to prac
gire before VA, such attorney or
agent is permitted to charge $10
in an original claim, or $2 in a
claim for increased benefits.

uoods Branch ol the industry. In
the Consumable Goods Branch, a
minimum hourly wage of 75 cents
will continue to apply. Since Jan
uary 25, I960, minimum wage
rates for both branches have been
75 cent* an hour.
Seecretary Tobin said that the
amended determination will apply
to all contracts subject to the
act for which bids are solicited
or negotiations begun on or after
May 11, 1951.
The Secretary found the 90-cent
and 75-cent to be prevailing in the
respective branches after his
study of the record of a public
hearing held by the U .S. Labor
Departments Wage and Hour
and Public Contracts Divisions on
August 14, 1950. Both employers
and employees in the industry of*
fered evidence at that time.
The amended determination al
so makes provision for the em
ployment of apprentices and
handicapped workers at submini
mum rates.
Except for the addition of den
tal anesthetics to the Consumable
Goods Branch, there are no sub
stantive changes in the definition
of the industry, Tobin pointed
out.
