By LELA MELICK
CHICAGO PARK 4-H CLUB
The Chicago Park 4-H Club
meeting was called to order at
8 p.m. by Jerry Gomez, president,
with nine members and_= six
leaders present.
We talked over our booth for
Fun Night and decided to use
what we had used the year before. We also gave some thought
to a new idea for next year’s
booth; the electrical class is to
work on it.
We spent some time on our
skit, with several skits tried before we decided on what we
would do. One was finally picked
Veterans’ News
oes e@
More than 280,000 veterans
whose claims for compensation or
pension had previously been denied by the Veterans Administration will now have their claims
reviewed, according to Sumner G.
Whittier, administrator of veterans affairs.
These veterans are those whose
claims were disallowed by VA
after World War II and prior to
1955 for the reason that their
claimed disabilities were not
shown at the time of their last
examination.
The VA for the past several
years has been conducting a review for errors in compensation
and pension claims allowen after
World War II, and veteran organizations had requested a similar
review of diabled cases.
Consequently, a pilot study was
ordered in March, 1958, by Mr.
Whittier to determine whether a
broadened review or disallowed
claims was in order. The pilot
study was carried on in seven
regional offices in widely separated sections of the nation,
By far the largest source of
the comparatively few errors discovered was the category ‘“disability not shown at time of last
examination.” A full review is
being ordered of the more than
280,00 disallowed ilaims in this
category.
Projerting the findings of the
pilot study to the disallowed
claims involved in the broadened
view indicates as many as 2,000
veteran claimants might be found
eligible for monetary awards.
The new review, Mr. Whittier
said, will soon be under way in
several VA regional offices on a
“time available” basis, and will
be extended to all 67 regional
offices as soon as the current
workload permits.
Questions-Answers
Q. If I should add the total
disability income rider to my GI
insurance and later become disabled so I could not work, how
much money would I receive?
A. You would receive, after
you had been totally disabled for
six month, income amounting to
$10 a month for each $1,000 of
your GI insurance. The maximum disability income is $100 a
month.
Q. Is a veteran obliged to report disability compensation as
income in filing his federal] income tax? ’
A. No. Disability compensation
paid by the VA is not taxable,
nor are other VA benefit payments.
Q. I am applying for a GI loan
to buy a farm. Do I have to live
on the farm to qualify for the
loan? :
A. No. You must, however,
supervise the farming operations.
Q. The daughter of a neighbor
of ours is a war orphan, with a
physical handicap. Must she wait
until her 18th birthday before she
can begin training under the War
Orphans Education Act?
A. No. A law passed last year
gave boys and girls with handicaps, who previously would have
had to wait until their 18th birthday, the right to begin special
types of war orphans training
when they reach age 14.

Our foods preparation meeting

Cold Facts And Pinees
Long red underwear may help coal children warm on these cold
winter days, but don’t use it to cure (
Neither can sun lamps, hot fruit Juices, laxatives, spinal adjastments, diets, yogi and the countless other so-called “modern”
remedies.
Through the years, mothers, with the help of “well tested” superstitions, have tried “cure” after “cure.” These have ranged from
such bizarre remedies as a brown
sugar and garlic candy to “a good
purge and.. hot bath.”
The fact is there is no known
cold remedy. Probably the best
thing you can do for children
when colds strike is to help relieve their misery.
Two of the latest products developed specifically for relief of
children’s cold symptoms are just
being introduced by Johnson &
Johnson. The first is a nasal decongestant that comes in a plastic 2-in-1 squeeze bottle. This
packaging allows for 2-way use
of the new medication—either as
nose drops or as @ spray.
The other is a chest rub in
an easy-to-use stick form. It’s
greaseless and stainless, and
doesn’t sting. The chest rub may
also be used as an inhalant by
cutting off one inch of the stick,
placing in steam kettle or vaporizer and inhaling the vapors.
Another recent development to
help reduce fever and for relief
of discomfort of children’s colds
and minor pains and headaches is
Liquiprin. This liquid medication
may be safely given even to children who are upset by aspirin. It

Milk And The U. S.
Winter Olympics
The American Dairy Association, through a series of 13 television films which tell the story
of U. S. Olympic participation
and the need for financing the
1960 team to Squaw Valley, California, will assist in raising funds
for the winter games in this state.
Famous Olympic stars will be
seen in the series of films, which
will be available for distribution
in California about April 1. ADA,
working with the Olympic Commission, is trying to help young
men and women maintain the
great record the U.S.A. has had
in this international competition.
Financial contributions will be
asked for, to be sent to the Olympic Commission.
