The Veteran Asks

(This service is based on qquest-
ions most often asked at Veterans
Administration offices in Nebr-
aksa. Answers are supplied by
VA.)
Q. My son has been attending
school under the CT. Bill, but does
not think he can afford to continue
another year and still support
himself and his family. Can he dis
continue his educational program
next term without notifying the
Veterans Administration?
A. A. veteran should not quit his
course of education or training
without notifying and obtaining
the approval of the VA regional
office having jurisdiction over his
lrea. This is necessary SO that he
will be eligible for further school
ing or ~job-training at some future
date if he wishes.
Q. Does the government pay the
first years interest on a veterans
loan which it has guaranteed?
A. No. When the loan is reported
to the the Veterans Administered
ration for guaranty for guaranty,
VA makes a gift" to the veteran
of 4 per cent Of the guaranteed
portion Of the loan. This sum is
then applied against the principal
of the loan; or, if the borrower
wishes, he mayuse it to pay part
of the first years interest On the
loan. For example, if VA guaran-
tees $4,000 of an $4,000 loan, it
will pay the borrower 4 per cent of
$4,000, or S160, which the borrow
er can apply against the total loan.

came from countries that had al

had always had wars!
