Mrs. Segedi was born in Tran
svlvania in 1890. She came to the
United States in. 1907 and married d
a Young Saxon man. Martin Sege-

fine Saxon children were raised.
Three daughters. Mary. Rosie, Ca
therinc. and two sons, Martin and
Andy. Their children and their
friends brought them many
years OF JOY and happiness. After
a long illness Mrs. Segedi passed
away on June 2nd. Some of the
old Cleveland West Saxon Juniors
attended her funeral to humbly
pay their last respects.
During her illness the Ladies
Saxon Singing Society OF Ellwood
City. on their way home from a
Civic Mothers Day program
displayed the wonderful Saxon
spirit and gathered in the home OF
Mrs. Sesedi just to sing for her
to pay their respects to a good
friend and wonderful mother.
This did her more good than any
medicine.

erans Administration"
The Committee asked the v. A
how many beds it could possibly
staff this coming fiscal year and
how much the V. A. thought that
would cost. The v. A. gave the Com
mittee figure of $555 million,
which is what will be recommend
ed. That is Sc million more than
the Truman Administration budget
requested.
In authorizing and appropriating
these funds, the Congress is ear
marking them clearly and definite
ly for hospitals Tin a broad sense
in order that the V. A. may activate
every possible bed it can staff. This
is done to make impossible q repe-
tition Of what was done with last
years IS million intended for hos
pitals--$4 million was used for its
outpatient dental program and 81
million for the preliminary staff
ing Of hospitals scheduled for OPEN
ing this year, but not cent for a
single one of the beds allegedly
closed for lack of funds.
Free care for the non-service-
connected had careful scrutiny by
the Committee which developed the
fact that the v. A. has had no
power permitting it to examine the
validity of what is called "the
pauper's oath" which applicant
must sign. 1t was found that some
such applicants actually had prop
critics which ran into the thou
sands. Legislation to remedy this
administrative defect will be sub
mitted promptly.
The Second Independent OfiiceS
Appropriation Bill which covers the
v. A. is scheduled to come to the
Floor on June 18th.
am giving you these few words
relative to the Hospital Program
Of the Veterans Administration in
order to reassure the veterans and
their families, Of our great area
that there Is determination on the
part Of this Congress to insist upon
adequate beds for veterans as q
fundamental Veterans Administra-
tion activity. Savings can be made
In many directions-but the men
and women who have served their
country are to have priority. In
! this I am sure you will agree.
