Nations Veterans Face Loss
Of $500 Million Annually In New
VA Rules For Education And
Training Under G. Bill
Mississippi Negro Veterans
Move To Join In Mounting Protest
MEETING SET FOR NOVEMBER ) HERE

The Veterans Administration has
carried out previous threats and
wrapped up the education and
training provisions of ;he CT Bill
of Rights in enough red tape to
discourage, if not actually bar, mill
lions of veterans from exercising
the rights voted them by Congress.
Between S4O0 and $500 millions
year in tuition and subsistence
allowances may be losr to educa-
ton or training hungry veterans
if Congress permits VA to carry
out its planned program to keep
veterans out of school and colleges.
Millions of War III veterans still
have substantial education and
training rights which they have
never used, while other millions
have used part, but not all of their
entitlement.
The VA and numerous daily
newspapers have been publicizing
the latest attack on veterans bene-
fits as involving new curbs on
''racketeering. However, the new
regulations do not differentiate be-
tween "racketeering" ard legiti-
mate training in bona fide schools.
SEEKING TO accomplish by
regulation what Congress had re-
fused to order by legislation. VA
last week embarked unon a plan
of red tape harassment Of veterans
seeking training-and schools seek
ing to give training-that already
is provoking bowls of rage from
members of Congress, educators
and vocational school operators.
Selling upon legal straws found
in the 1949 and 1850 VA appropria-
ton acts which prohibit the agency
from spending any money for
courses which it determines to be
educational or recreational," VA
Administrator Carl R. Gray. Jr.,
has arbitrarily labeled all courses
in schools established since June
p, 1914 with that tag, has Jumped
IN all correspondence and most
part-time courses in addition, in
Guiding new courses started in
schools established before June %,
1914.
The June %, 1914 date is the eff
fective date of the CT Bill of
Rights.
Under the latest bans, a televis-
ION maintenance course started in
an old established school after the
June p, 1914 date would automa-
tically be classified by VA as "a
vocational or recreational."

gress had prohibited the use of CT
