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
