Bible Head Praises
Revised Testament

The latest revised edition of the
New Testament appearing today is
the most accurate and readable
translation one could want" in the
view of w. L. Darby, president of
the Washington City Bible Society
and secretary of the American Bible
Society.
Mr., Darby pointed out that the
work, first authorized Protestant re-
vision in As years, retains most of
the King James translation, al
though many words and phrases
have been changed. The result is
a vast improvement over the arch
sic words and expressions Of the
King James version"
Dr. Darby also said the new edi-
ton is a great improvement me-
chanically over the conventional
black-covered Bible. 1T now has
blue binding, clear type stretching
across the page instead of being ar
ranged in the conventional two col
umns, and is divided into para
graphs"
The revision is the work OF 81
scholars, representing 40 Protestant
denominations in the United States
and Canada who worked for Il
years on it. The Internationa,
Council of Religious Education is
the sponsor
Publication of the revised New
Testament will be FOLLOWED by re-
vised edition of the Old Testament

for lump sum payments in case of
death.
The new insurance bill would offer
number of plans for payment, in
Guiding lump sum. In addition to
the change in the number of plans,
the bill would permit insurance for
total disability and a larger range
of beneflciaries.
Drop in Risk Cited.
1t was explained that, during the
war, benefits were restricted to near
relatives because of the extra haz-
ards during hostilities Because of
the lessened risks under peacetime
conditions. the Veterans Admins
Ftration believes more liberal provi-
sions can be offered now.
The Veterans Administration is
now working on amendments to the
omnibus bill introduced before Gen.
Bradley became veterans admins
traitor. Most of the amendments
under consideration are designed to
clarity provisions in the bill and
bring it up to date.
AS it stands now. the bill would
eliminate the 'pauper's oath" for
veterans without service connected
disability. At present these vet
Grams have to swear to their in
ability to pay for disqualification in
order to gain admittance to veterans
facilities.
Veterans needing treatment for
non-seryice- ce-connected injuries or
diseases would be furnished hos
pitalization if facilities are avail
able. Except in emergency cases,
preference would be given to those
who can't afford to pay for hos
pital care.
Would Admit Paying Veterans.
For the first time, paying veterans
would be admitted to veterans hos
pitals. The bill provides for the
admission to veterans hospitals of
veterans with non on-service-c
disabilities who want to pay all or
part of the established rate. 1t
was emphasized, however, that men
who cannot afford to pay would be
given preference ahead of the pay
ing customers.
Single veterans whose pensions
are reduced while they are in the
hospital would be given up to $500
of the withheld pension if they stay
in the hospital until discharged
with medical advice This provision,
a veterans administration official
explained, was designed to induce
Ituberculous patients and some others
who need hospital care to remain
until they can be safely discharged
Raises Burial Allowance.
In order to speed up payment of
claims, the veterans administrator
would be allowed to accept prima
facie evidence of relationship, age
or death. The claimant then would
be given a year in which to back
up his evidence with the usual veri-
| flcation from public records or SINH
lar documents. If that evidence is
not Forthcoming, payments would
be stopped.
In addition to putting all the
disqualification laws in one measure
! instead of 10 different acts. the
omnibus bill also would:
Increase the burial allowance for
vetreans from S100 to sl25.

are citizens or nationals of the

war in occupied countries to collect
all their back pension checks.
