IF YOU don't know what
Brooklyn double-talk" is, we sug-
gest that you take a hilariously
easy lesson from Professor George
Price. who is nightly stopping the
Latin Quarter show with his con-
vulsive new routine.
OF course, George includes a
lot of the old favorites in his
presentation, because his fans
would never let him off the floor
If he didn't do Cantor, Jessel and
Jolson. His original Income Tax"
bit to the Largo al Factotum" is
still as funny as ever and he
rounds out the lineup with vari-
Gus anonymous characterizations.
SPLENDID BAND
Co-starred with George is Bob
Chester and his band, the best he
has ever had, incidentally. Bob IS
in fine form and the band, which
is a good-sized one is just right
for such a spot as the spacious
Latin Quarter, They not only pro-
vide excellent dance music, but
play fine show as well with
cute little Marjorie Woods as the
vocalist.
In the show proper, the sup
porting acts include a very grace

STEWART MAKES REPORT, VICTORY
 LOAN CAMPAIGN

B. D. Stewart, Victory Loan Chairman for Juneau and vicinity, made his report today on the results of the 9th Victory Loan drive that extended from october 29 to De- cember 8, inclusive.
 The figures used in the report be- low do not include bond sales made prior to the commencement of the organized drive (estimated at ap- proximately S10,000) nor do they in- cluds sales realized through payroll deductions in Federal offices with in the bond-sale period (estimated at about $15,000).
 Stewart says that: Although the drive officially ended on the latter date, we are reminded that 8th Vic tory Loan Bonds of the E, F ard G series may still be purchased up until December 31, at the Post Of flee, at either of the Juneau Banks or at the office of the Federal Sav- ings and Loan Association.
 We are also assured that bond purchases that are made between now and the end of this year will be credited by the U. s. Treasury De- partment on the quota of $l75,000 maturity value) that was set for our community in this sale.
 Because of a series of unfortun- ate and unforeseen difficulties the commencement of the Juneau-Gas- tineau Channel bond sale drive was seriously delayed and effective or ganization was thereby rendered im- possible For this reason the results achieved thus far are not what they would have been normally. However, there is still time and an opportunity is left for this Capital City area to meet it's assigned quota and thus place ourselves where we belong-in a position of leadership among the communities of the Territory in this national ef- fort to finance the just obligations of cur Government that are the in- evitable consequences of the Vic tory that has been won for us.

WASHINGTON - A few articles hack. mentioned subsistence pay ments some call them increased pensions) that are payable to dis abled veterans while getting train ing or education under Public Law l6 Vocational Rehabilitation AcD |. I pointed out how, for a disabled veteran with no dependents, the top allowance or increased pension was S92 per month.
 Well, in the past. some veterans deliberately tried to avoid becoming eligible under Public Law 16. They did this. so they could get training instead under the education program
 of the GI Bill.
 In that way they could continue
 to draw their disability pension and also could get their rights under the BI Bill education program, includ- ing the subsistence allowance pay able in that program.
 At present, disabled veterans application for a disability pension goes to a rating board of the VA. The board decides if the veteran has a service connected questionable dis ability and how much.
 If you're one of these vets with a questionable disability, you get notice of the rating boards decision And you get a printed statement which, shortened, means that if you want vocational rehabilitation (un- der Public Law l6), you should fill out the Form 1900 that's enclosed and return it.
 The board then will decide wheth- CT you need vocational rehabilita- ton. If you need it, you're eligible under Public Is for training or edu- cation If the board says you don't need it, you're not eligible.
 So, disabled vets, if you become eligible for training under Public 16, you then have a choice. You can

 But you can't get more than S92 a month Gf single and with no de- pendents) as a subsistence allowance or increased pension while training under either law.
 Some disabled men took to the idea that if they didn't get eli gible under Public 16. they then wouldn't have to make a choice be- tween training under Public l6 or the CT Bill They could still draw their disability pension (Which was theirs legally and also could get any training they desired under the CT Bill (which also was theirs le- gally).
 They did this by ignoring the Veterans Administration form 1900. They wouldn't complete it and re- turn it to the VA Thus they would not become eligible under Public l6.
 Then, they'd keep their pension Qets say it was $69 a month, 50 per cent disability and under the GI Bill education program they'd also get $50 subsistence allowance while training. That's a total of Sl19 a month. They could have drawn but S92 a month with no dependents) if they'd been eligible for training under Public 16.
 But a vet can't get away with that anymore The VA holds in effect that in cases where "a veteran with holds cooperation he'll be presum- ed to be eligible for training under Public l6.
 Evidently the VA means that you, as a disabled veteran, aren't coop erating if you don't fill out Form 1900 applying for training under Public 16 or if you fail to appear for examination when needed.
