The Veterans
Corner

Here are authoritative answers
from the Veterans Administration
to four questions of interest to
former Servicemen and their fami-
lies:
@. !, know a disabled World War
II veteran who's taking on-the-job
training under Public Law 16. He
recently was injured while in train
ing. Would he be eligible for VA
compensation because of his train
ing injury?
A. He might be eligible, provided
that his injury resulted from some
training activity, and provided that
it is serious enough to warrant
compensation payments.
@. Is it possible to get a CT loan
to buy residential property contain
ing more than one family unit?
A. Yes. However, if one veteran
is buying, the total number of sep
arate units he can get is four.
@. A World War II veteran friend
of mine died recently, leaving his
wife a $4,000 CT term insurance
policy. He had failed to pay his
last premium on time, but the
grace period hadn't expired. Will
his wife get the full amount of the
policy?
A. His wife will receive the full
amount of the policy minus the un-
paid premium.
@. In computing annual income
for VA pension purposes, does
veteran have to count his gross
salary, or only his net take-home
salary?
A. He must include his full,
gross salary-including deductions
MADE for retirement and amounts
withheld for income tax.
Veterans living in Key West who
wish further information about
their benefits should contact the
VA office at Room 1O4; Federal
Bldg.

Lawyers Guild Calls
Subyersiye Charge
Abuse oi Authority
~ Mo Assoeioisd Prsss

CHICAGO. NOV. 20.The Ma
tional Lawyers Guild. confronted
by q Justice Department move
to label it as subversive, has
called the loyalty challenge "an
unprecedented abuse Of govern
mental authority"
At the same time the guild
yesterday asserted other lawyer
groups as well as the bar itself
should be aware Of the challenge
to ''the bars sacred indepen-
dence."
Touching on the question Of
fitness for the bar, the guild said
that mo matter how obnoxious
or heterodox" the lawyers be-
liefs or associations may be,
"since ancient times the sole
tests Of q lawyers fitness are his
conduct at the bar, his relations
with his colleagues and his de-
votion to his clients interests"
The guild adopted q resolu-
ton which criticized the Ameri--
can Bar Association "for having
helped inspire and initiate this
assault on the peoples civil
liberties by efforts to impose tests
Of loyalty upon the lawyer based
upon his political opinions and
associations"
The guild has been asked by
Attorney General Brownell to
show cause why it should not
be listed as subversive.
In a resolution adopted yes
terday, the guild said Mr..
Brownell's loyalty challenge was
an unprecedented abuse Of
governmental authority to extin-
guish on purely political grounds
a progressive and independent
bar association with an honor
able record of service to the bar
and the people"
The resolution also called
upon the bar and bar associa-
tions Of the Nation to be re-
minded Of their duty to oppose
with all their strength every
effort to lay hands upon the
bars sacred independence"

NEW YORK. Nov. 20.-Du
Mont intends to continue opera
tions as one Of the four major
television networks, according to
Ted Bergman, managing director
Of the network.
Mr.. Bergman issued a state
ment yesterday which he said
was designed to clarity the situa-
tion created by rumors Concern
ing the continuance and perma-
nence of the Du Mont TeleviSion
network"
Oficials of the parent Allen B.
Du Mont laboratories, Inc, and
of American Broadcasting- Para
mount Theatres, Inc, were re-
ported to have had exploratory
talks recently on the possibility
of ABC taking over Du Mont
network programs. The report
was that the parent Du Mont
company would have retained
the three TV stations it owns,
but otherwise would have con-
centrated on its set manufacture
ing and equipment business. The
talks were said to have been
dropped several days ago, how
ever. Heads Of both companies
would neither affirm nor deny
the report.
Mr.. Bergman said 1--WE are not
now nor have we any intention
of entering into negotiations
with any other organization or
individual which contemplates
the disposition or the abandon
ment Of the Du Mont television
network

that certain exploratory con-
versations have been held In the

The author Of some censuse e
charges, Senator Morse, said

While he said there was a
group Of pro-McC Carthy Sena-
tors who would not hesitate to
adopt dilatory tactics If they
thought they could get away
with it, Senator Morse predicted
any such move would be blocked.
He added the issue before the
Senate was whether to stop
once and for all the inexcusably
unfair practices and procedures
Senator Mccarthy follows In his
one-man investigations.
Senator Mundt, Republican,
OF South Dakota, said the longer
the censure debate goes on more
and more people win offer
amendments to the censure re-
solution. He commented that
time is q factor In any effort to
