PROVIDED CARE
The Veterans Administration
has announced it is trying to
solve the problem of providing
disqualification and out-patient
treatment for several thousand
veterans with mental illnesses
who may qualify for such care
under Public Law 239, recently
passed by the Congress.
The new law provides that
for the purpose of VA hospital
and medical care, including
out-patient treatment, World
War 7 veterans and those with
service since June II, 1850, who
develop an active pSychosis
within two years from the date
of separation from active serv-
ice shall be deemed to incurred
the disability in active service.
Before the law was passed,
many such veterans were clas-
sified as nonService-connected
cases and thus entitled to VA
disqualification only when a bed
was available in a VA hospital,
providing they signed a state
ment that they could not afford
the treatment elsewhere. How
ever, they were not entitled to
out-patient treatment at VA
expense.
The VA is now faced with the
task of reviewing the cases of
approximately 5000 World War
II veterans awaiting hospital
ization who has pSychoSiS clas-
sified as nonService-connected
Those found eligible will be re-
classified as service-connected
which gives them priority for
Decentralization and makes them
eligible for out-patient treat
ment.
Under the new law, World
War II veterans and those with
service in the Armed Forces
since June 27, 1850, who have
developed an active pSychoSis
within two years after Separa-
ton from service, may file ap-
plications for disqualification or
out-patient treatment as serv-
ice connected cases. Those now
on waiting lists for hospitaliza-
ton need not file new applica-
tons as their cases will be
automatically reviewed.

lection Of the mere notion, even,

1t is obviously possible to plan
the defense of the United States
and North America, if that de-

diplomacy. 1t is possible to plan
a defense of the Western Hemi-

of Pacific and Atlantic strong

the United States, with weak,
and in many cases highly re-
luctant allies, to plan to police
the globe and intervene in every
civil conflict, including places
where every strategical advan-
tage is with the opponent.
And If the definition of a

country is very low. We think,
however, that it is precisely the

Former Eisenhower Aide Suggests Truman May Offer
Generals Name to Democratic Convention

Truman to plan an Eisenhower
coup on his own motion.
1t is pretty hard to plant
ideas with Mr.. Truman. His
official family and staff hedge
him in and they are not likely
to suggest moves that will have
the effect of severing their own
arteries.
Mr.. Butcher made some other
interesting points in his Look
article. He reported that Ike
said he had told President Tru-
man he would do his darnedest
for 18 months. Mr.. Butcher
said his first thought was that
the 18 months would bring him
to the retirement age Of 81 but
later discovered that officers
holding five-star rank never re-
tire. They are subject to call
and get full pay and emolu-
ments for life.
Mr.. Butcher mused that he
didn't know just what Ike
meant by this time limit. It
just happens to be fact that
Ike left for Europe January II
last on his new assignment
and 18 months from that date
will be June, 1852, the eve of
the national conventions.
AS a Gridiron Club song once
put it: ASK me in June, you
have asked me too soon. Ask
me, ask me. again."
