Veterans Bill of Rights It is virtually certain that this session of the congress will liberalize many provisions of the~G.1. Bill of Rights, particularly since President Truman and the Veterans administration have now given added impetus to needed clarification and liberalization. In his message to the congress, the President urged that prompt consideration be given for. more liberal hospitalization’ and veterans care, more vocational training .under the vocational rehabilitation act and to education and training under the serviceman’s readjustment act (G.I. bill). The President further urged more specific language for reemployment of veterans under the selective service act, so there can: be no doubt about the right of-a veteran to get back his old job should he desire it. ; The Veterans administration itself will take'the lead and spearhead the fight for these clarifying and [iberalizing amendments and the administration will have” the backing of such organizations as the American Bar association, the American Institute of .Banking, the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars. At this time 22,349 veterans, out of more than two million demobilized thus far, are taking advantage of the education features of the bill of tights. Some of the proposed amendments would include. ‘‘adequate subsistence and travel allowances for veterans taking intensive refresher courses away from home; oermit instruction by correspond2nce, particularly from approved edicational institutions which have not iitherto conducted correspondence . , 2ourses.’’ Questions and Answers Q.—My husband was given an honorable medical discharge March §, 1943.,At that time they did not receive a discharge button.

A Yes, ie has the right to discontinue his allotment. He has the same obligations concerning his family as any other honorable husband. /Q.—I am making an application for a one-ton truck. I have a farm of 200 acres and need a truck very much. I am an honorably discharged soldier, with two years service. I: would like to. get a government owned truck if possible. J. F., Schepacer ek N; Y; A.—If you are referring to a surplus war property truck, would suggest that you contact your local AAA county committee or your county agent for information where these surplus trucks are available from a bona fide dealer in your community. You are entitled to an A-l priority without red tape if there are surplus war trucks for sale at any of your local dealers. Q.—I want to know if a man that has been in the navy 16 months, is 26 years old and has a wife and two children, will get a discharge soon? Wife, Vida, Okla. A.—Not necessarily. The navy man will be subject to the discharge system of rating adopted by the navy. Q.—I am a World War I veteran and have a job. Will I have to give up my job for a veteran of World War II? Does a veteran of World War IF have as much right as a World War II veteran? W. L., Mora, Minn. A.—If you are holding a job now which was given up by a veteran of this war, then the honorably discharged veteran of World War II has a right to that job back under the provisions of the selective service act. A veteran: of World War I has all the rights of a citizen of the U. S. A. and as much right as a veteran of this war except for the express benefits enacted for veterans of World War II. Q.—A_ serviceman owed §his father some money before he entered the service. Then the father became suddenly ill and was unable to work. The serviceman then provided the father a family allowance from the government. Should the serviceman get credit on what he owed his father for the amount the government sent? Reader, Hayden, Colo.
