The Ministry of Education
has imposed a rigid program

beneath revolver shots and the
blows of a bayonet. Two years

The last benefit payment
from the Revolutionary War
was made in 1911. The last
payment for the War of 1872
came in 1916. Civil War and
Indian war payments still have
a long way to run.
These were some of the facts
learned by Congressman trying
to figure out when veterans
benefit programs will run out.
Sumner G. Whittier, head of
the Veterans Administration,
gave the information to a House
Appropriations Subcommittee
trying to find out how much
present benefit programs will
cost before they expire. The
committee report was released
yesterday.
Mr.. Whittier said World War
II pensions and death benefit
payments would probably Just
be reaching their peak about
the year 1000. The total cost
for the programs is expected to
be $5.5 billion q year at that
time.
Evening star., 1960-04-11
War Benefit Payments
Drag Outfor Century

What drags the payments
out so, said Mr.. Whittier, are
provisions for compensation to
children and other dependents
of veterans.
Death benefits are still being
paid to four relatives of de-
ceased veterans of the Mexican
War. which was fought be-
tween 1846 and 1848. The sur
vivors of Indian war veterans
still getting payments number
TAO and there are 4,200 receiv-
ing payments as a result of
the Civil War, although the
last soldier who fought in the
war is now dead.
Among living veterans re-
ceiving benefits, the oldest now
are SIS men who fought in the
Indian wars, in the decades
after the Civil War.
The current cost of the vet
erans' compensation and pen
sion programs is $3.3 billion.
For next year the Veterans
A Administration is asking $3,-

Van Over Held
For Jury Action
In Owen Death

Bobby Richard Van Over, 81
year-old carnival concession
naire, today was held for action
of the grand jury by a coroner's
jury in the fatal beating of
former Bradley University Pres
ident David B. Owen in a
Washington hotel room.
Hotel employees testified at
the inquest in the Morgue that
they heard screams and a gag
ging sound from the third floor
room of the Alton Hotel, 1907
E street NV, shortly before
police were called and found
Mr.. Owen nude and dying on
the floor.
Mr.. owen, 81, and recently
manager of the Santa Cruz
NCalif.D Chamber of Commerce,
was strangled. Van Over, who,
police said, met Mr.. Owen in a
Ninth street bar after the CAL
ifornian had testified before a
Senate committee. sat hand
cuffed and slumped in his chair
during the inquest.
