The new. law provides '.hat for the purpose of VA hospital and medical care, including out pa tient treatment, World War vet erans and those with service since June 27, 1950, who develop an ac tive psychosis within two years from the date of separation from active service shall be deemed to have incurred the disability in ac tive service. Before the law was passed, many such veterans were classified as nonservice connected cases and thus entitled to VA hospitalization only when a bed was available in a VA hospital, providing they signed a statement that they could not afford the treatment elsewhere. However, they were not entitled to out - patient treatment at VA ex pense. The VA is now faced with the task of reviewing the cases of ap proximately 9.000 World War II veterans awaiting hospitalization who have psychosis classified as nonservice-connected. Those found eligible will be reclassified as service - connected which gives them priority for hospitalization and makes them eligllble for out patient treatment. Under the new law, World War II veterans and those with service in (he armed forces since June 27, 1950, who have developed an active psychosis within two years after separation from service, may file applications for hospitali zation or out - patient treatment as service - connected cases. Those now on waiting lists for hospitali zation need not file new appli cations as their cases will be auto matically reviewed. schools.

ELLIOTT City School Superintendent Discussion today will cover bond ing and building ability of central Douglas county schools. Construction costs in Oregon can be figured by two methods. The first method bonds the as sessed property value of the dis tricts for necessary funds and pays off bonds and interest over a period of years not to exceed 20. This is the installment plan. The second method imposes a serial levy over a period of years before the building is undertaken. This is a cash-on-hand plan. It saves interest costs but does not permit any obligation against the levy. Cash must be available before construction starts. Roseburg built the first unit of Riverside on the serial levy plan but found that method did not pro- ing method for school buildings The present emergency is based on the need for additional high school space for central Douglas county. At present Roseburg is pro viding facilities for the entire ad jacent area of 11 districts, on a tuition basis. However, by the fall of '52, the present plant will no longer be able to care for the large suburban area which now sends in 435 pupils.
