of the United States, in any
war, or in peace time. For most
benefits available to veterans,
80 days service and an honor

and most benefits are for war

The following are some Of the
benefits available to veterans
through the Veterans Admins
tration: Compensation, pensions

Mobilization to disabled veterans

for veterans of World War II.
AS part of the study of the
needs of veterans in Alaska,
questionnaires have been sent to
all known veterans of World
War II, now living in Alaska, as
fast as the names of others are
learned, questionnaires are be-
ing mailed to them. Owing to
the large number of benefits
available to these veterans, the
QUESTIONABLE is used: for the
present, the number of other
veterans residing in Alaska is all
that is desired.
In order to make this study
as complete as is possible, it is
requested that each veteran of
World War II who has not re-
ceived the QUESTIONABLE, each
veteran of World War I, except
those who belonged to an Amer
