Of the 110,000 veterans in VA hospitals on the average day, about half are 55 years or older.

VVA said volunteers from the community ate proving of invaluable aid in locating foster homes and in helping the disabled veterans adjust to —s life in. Questions-Answers Q. I understand the GI interest rate has been raised by law to 5% per cent. Am I correct in thinking the higher rate applies only to new loans, and does not affect loans made before the new ‘law? A. That is correct. Loans closed before July 2, 1959, are in no way affected by the new: law. Only loans made on or after this date can be charged the new 5% per cent interest. Q. My 3 year + from discharge deadline for starting school under the Korean GI Bill will come in August. Can I make application then, and start classes when school opens in September? A. No. You must actually be in school by your deadline. You. may not make application before the deadline, with the idea of starting ‘after it has passed. Q. I just got married, and can now. claim more GI allowance money this fall as a GI student What kind of evidence will VA need, so it can raise my school allowance? A. To claim an inereased allowance, you should send VA a certified copy of either the public record or the church reco: of your marriage. It must bear the seal and signature of whoever keeps the records in the church or court. Q.
