I". Q. M., Orand Itapids, Mich. A. The disabled veteran receives several additional benefits under act the vocational rehabilitation (public law 16). During his vocational rehabilitation, and for two mniths after his employability has been established, he receives at least $105 a month if he has no dependents, or $115 a month if he has a dependent, plus $10 for one child, $7 for each additional child and $15 for a dependent parent However, he may receive more than these guaranteed minirnums if his disability compensation, pension or retirement pay, plus the standard allowance of $05 or $00 a month, is higher than the amount guaranteed. Q. My brother, who Is married and has one small child, is a totally disabled war veteran. He is receiving government compensation now, but we would like to know whether he would be entitled to receive an increased compensation because of his dependents. G. T. O., Portland, Ore. . A. No, he may not. No additional compensation or pension is payable to a veteran because he has dependents. Compensation or pension is based on a degree of disability and not the number of dependents. Q. Is It true that the government will aid the veteran In paying his Interest on a G.I. business loan for the first year? R. P. M., Hastings, Mum. A. Yes. Veterans' administration will pay the lender, for credit to the veterans' loan, an amount equal to 4 per cent of the guaranteed portion of the loan. For example, if the guaranteed portion is $3,000, the lender will receive $120 from VA to be applied on the veteran's debt Q. I am a World War II veteran. As such, am I entitled to treatment under Veterans' administration outL. B., patient department plan? San Antonio, Tex. A. You are entitled to treatment as an only if you have d or a service-incurreinjury or disability, or if you connected ailhave a ment and are on leave from a VA hospital and ordered to report to an clinic for periodic treatment qr examination. Q. I have been out of the army now about a year and six months. I have used up some of my $20 a week compensation and what I would like to know Is, Is It too late to apply for training so that I may learn a trade. J. A. L., Madison, Wis. A. No, it is not too late since the law provides that you have four years from the day of your discharge to apply for such framing. (, When I was discharged from the army I retained my National Service Life insurance. When will I receive a regular insurance policy to replace Ihe certificate I now have? O. T. II., Jefferson City, Mo. A. Insurance policy forms are beto include changes ing drafted made necessary by recent insurance legislation designed to make National Service Life insurance fit peacetime needs of veterans. They will be distributed when VA branch offices are able to handle the work without interference to their primary objective. .

The day of the Bums was over. The Brooklyn attendance would take a dizzy dip. But what happens? The Dodgers move out in front, and the attendance fills the ball park, despite a wet, cold spring and a wetter, colder June. The Dodgers, so far, under Shot-to- n, have outplayed the Hums. And they have even keener fan support. For Brooklyn knows Its baseball and Brooklyn Understands and appreciates the handicaps Shotton has faced, with Chuck Drcssen and Red Corriden over In the Yankee camp. An by the name of Burt Shotton deserves much more credit than he has received. He has turned In one of the big jobs of the year. The Cardinals, looking back to March and April, appeared to have class. The Giants have had power. The Braves have had balance, pitching and hitting. But the Dodgers remain the major threat, the team to beat. A few days ago, I ran across my old friend Arky Vaughan, one of the best ballplayers you'll see in many a year. Arky can play either the Infield or the Wfleld and he Is one ef the best natural hitters, baseball has known. "What holds the Dodgers up?" I asked. "A good ball club," "There's alVaughan answered. ways somebody around to handle the Job when we get in trouble.

But the Dodgers tike the winning side better than snyone else. I can't understand why to many people are surprised at the Dodgers' showing. We might easily, with better luck, have been much farther in front." It might be mentioned here that Vaughan hns been one of the stars in this Dodger drive. Vaughan's hitting and his play has llled a wide - open gap. And Vaughan Is no longer a kid.
