Failure To Report
May Cancel Out
Veterans Pension

Veterans and the widows and
children of deceased veterans
receiving pension from the Vet
Grams Administration have an
obligation during the year to
report immediately any increase
in income which would raise
their annual income above the
tatutory limitations, Leon
Fields, Manager of the VA Reg
ional Office, said today.
Many pensioners feel because
they report their income once
a year in January, this ends the
necessity for keeping the VA
informed.
To remain eligible for pen
sion under the law, Mr.. Fields
said, pensioners of World War
l, World War II, and the Ko-
rean war may not have an an
nual income from other sources
exceeding $l400 without depen-
dents, or $1,000 with wife or
minor children.
If, during the year, the per-
son receiving the pension fails
to notify VA promptly of an
increase in income which raises
his annual income above the
