PAGE FOUR MONDAY, MAY ‘mittee of which I am chairman re. ported to the committee on World War. veterans legislation the other . day, but we couldn't work out the NO FS . details of. the bill fast enough to get it through the house before the reBy Congressman Clair Engle leess. However the policies will ‘be WIASIIINGTON. Mav 4—_V “ {substantially liberalized and there Insurance—I wish ailgain to urge vet is a strong possibility that retroactsal ere b ‘sd 4 yale ff : S ‘erans to retain their war insurance! ?¥° PIemU™ free permanent disabjlity insurance will be attached to all existing policies. No veteran should let his insuran¢e lapse until he has had a chance to size his policy up after the chaniges in the law ‘are made—-which should go through ;congress before July. . . Veterans Mail Courses—-The vetlerans administration has announced that veterans eligible for education‘al benefits now may take corresp. ondence and extension courses by mail. This is of interest to Califor. mia since I received many letters from returning veterans concerning their desire to study by mail and to complete courses which had been interrupted by military service. The j veterans administration signed contracts with 38 educational institutions throughout the country to furnish mail courses ranging from academic subjects to a wide varicty of] trades and professions. It was pointed out that the original GI bill of { rights had ruled out correspondence eourses by requiring attendance at a school or other training institution. Under the announced program a veteran willl receive no subsistence allowance and the total cost of the courses he takes must not exceed $500. Of the 38 contracts signed to date, 215 are with colleges and universities in 19 states. Fifteen of these offer high school as well as college courses. ‘Loans to Veterans—Under the recently issued veteran administration regulation GI loans for home, farm and ‘business purposes shape up like this: The loans may be either guaranteed or insured, On loans to any one veteran to purchase or improve real estate, the government guaran. ; anti the amendments being prepared to the National Life Insurance Act go through congress, The sub-comtees up to $4000 but not more than . 50% of the loan; on non realty loans the limits are $2000 or 509. Bank loans at bank’s option may be insur-. ;ed up to 15% of its GI loans but the’ jinsurance cannot exceed $4000 for realty loans to any one veteran or $2000 for non realty loans to anyi one veteran. The government pays outright 4% of the guaranteed or insurance portion of the loans. An example of how the program works: If the veteran borrows $6000 to buy a home loan can be guaranteed for $3000 und the government gratuitously pays $120 to lender (for credit on loan) as soon as, the ‘guaranttee is issued. If loan is insured government sets aside $900, 15% of $6000 as reserve to protect lender and pays $36 4% of $900 to lender RAY CRENSHAW PHI —SPORTING GOODS— FIXIT SHOP Gunsmith, Locksmith, Saw Filing !
