Many survivors of deceased vet
Grams of World War II will lose
valuable security benefits if they
do not file an application for such
payment before Feb. 10, 1947, &C.
cording to reports from the Social
Security Administration.
Recent amendments to the Old
Age and Survivors Insurance pro-
visions of the Social Security AGA
provide protection to veterans who
otherwise had no protection, for
at least three years.
Veterans who may receive these
benefits are those whose jobs, be-
fore entering. militay service, were
covered by the law, and some
veterans who have never been en-
ployed by a business or industrial
concern.
The amendment of the act was
provided for because many vet
Grams lost the rights they had &C
cumulated under the Old-Age and
Survivors Insurance, after they
had enter the service.
MANY persons entered the ser
vice without having the chance to
build social insurance status
through civilian employment.
For example, a boy who was in
Quoted as soon as he finished
high school never had a chance
to work and build up social Sc
curity.
Survivors of veterans who died
in service or from service-connect-
ed causes have the protection OF
tie Veterans Administration. The
new law provides protection for
survivors up to a three year period
after date of discharge or if the
veteran dies within four years
and one day after the official end
ing of the war.
The amendments provide for
survivors of veterans who entered
the service on Or before Sept. 1t,
1910. and before the official end
of the war, and had at least 80
days of service, or if his termina-

In Lake Forest school, approx
mately 100 children ate plate lunch
es before this program was start
ed and now 586 children eat a
hot lunch every day, and drink
. bottle of milk, all arranged under
the school lunch program.
Since all the children are now
well nourished, the teachers have
noticed a difference in conduct,
lessons. and appearance of the
children, Mrs. Williams said.
The cafeteria is well equipped
with two electric refrigerators, a
large gas range, an electric dish
washer, a steam table, a cooks
table, cabinets of various kinds
and plenty Of cooking utensils.
The meals are served piping" hot
and the milk is cold.

Some of the tempting menus
served are: Roast beef, creamed

Spiced ham, apple sauce, corn,
