here that his agency can operate
efficiently on slightly less than
S5,00u.uuu,v00. about $1,500,000,000
less than the? budget for the last
fiscal year. o
Gray noted that after July 25
most veterans will no longer be
eligible to apply for aid while at
tending college and other schools.
The VA also expects a drop in
GI enrollment in the nation's
schools after that date.
He said, Jpowever, the VA still
has lota of need for mapey.
"Some 25,000,000 Americans
have put on uniforms since the
revolutionary war and about 19
million of them are still living,"
he said.
Hundreds of thousands of those
veterans and their dependents are
still receiving benefits. He said 23
widows and one dependent child
of the Mexican war of 1846 are
still getting money from the coun
try. Gray declared the VA is ready
this month to start laying the
$685,000,000 special dividond to GI
insurance holders and after this
year will make the payments an
nually. Checks will average about
$H5.
