Tie OSIGON STATESMAN, Salem. Oregon, Tuesday Morning, March 27, 1345 PAGE SEVEN WASHINGTON, March 2J (Special) If" you have been as restless since you left the service as the tail or a bird sitting on a swaying clothes line, maybe you better decide to get into the GI Bill of Rights plan for training or education, Youll , find your spirits going up- ' ctaira tfire rt(ms at a time. - It you've been ' Major Niai placid since getting back into civ les, then -you may already have decided that success is mostly at umea inrougn training, rather that what kind of vitamin pill you take. But possibly you want to know whether,' if you once choose and commence r e course, 'you. can change to another. 4 Perhaps' you fear you may, d is .coyer; after you ' start, that the selected course is really too tough for you to take to the mat, or that there's an unforeseen demand for chemical engineers develop Ing, while you're studying elec tronicswhich" field might seem . to be growing overpopulated. Or maybe you start to train as r telephone repair man, and a quarter- through" the course you find the country fa beginning to yell for radio,; mechanics. In snurt, lor one oi several reasons, you may realize . that when you won the toss you should have picked the other goal to defend Then the wind would have been with you. - y. WelL don't get excited. The law says you may change a course of Instruction "for - reasons satisfac tory to th e Administrator," Of course, the Admictrator-is Gen eral Frank THines in Washing ton. But It's rr.y understanding that he delegates his authority to the regional offices of the Veter- -aj6 Administration, and it would be my guess that the attitude of the V. A. would be liberal. I mean, if you had started a course and you ' really could produce a sound reason why you should change to another, you'd no doubt get an OK. If and .when a veteran chooses aeourse, selects a school and becomes a part of the gov emment's ' free - educational or' training progfam,'.fcis tuition will be paid. Also, Incidental expenses. such as the cost of paper, pencils, books and other : supplies and equipment 'which tSe student vet-: eran needs, will be furnished by the school. The school j will be re imbursed by the Veterans' Ad ministration.' -' ; - ' - In addition " thef V. A. will pay the school for necessary library, -infirmary, health," laboratory and other similar fees." This means the school or training; institution will receive from the V, A. the cost of tuition and virtually all other necessary expenses "as are gen erally required fcrVthe successful completion of the course by other students In -the 'institution. This payment to the school doesn't in clude board, lodging," t ravtl or other living expenses i --.A' " For all pf these laboratory, in . ftrmary, etc. expenses, including . tuition, there's a . top limit of, $500 for an ordinary school year. It's important for us to remem- - ber, therefore, that after a course baa been chosen,' we must select our school only after we find out what the cost of tuition and fees will total. " It's easy to see that, if you se lected a school which customarily charges tuition" of $500, you'd - certainly be, hitting the nail squarely, on- the thumb; since there wouldn't be r dime left to pay for fees and supplies. The law definitely limits ex penditures for a school year to a too of S500 and, even though of ficials of the Veterans' Adminis tration, might like to make an es "veption in -your ' perhaps worthy case, it can't' be . done. After all, the total cost to .the country for this progranv it "'.we ex-service people really go all-out .for , it, Is. going to be out ; of this world. It could be more than i that, if no top per-year limit had been fixed by law. , I've stressed that the top limit applies to an ordinary school year. That has ' been defined- by the V. A. as from 30 to S3 weeks. This definition while logical and more - than fair, - has-caused small dis turbances like, st breeze: blowing the surface of a placid lake the ivrong way. . - From AP Neseatures - MILL CITY Corporal Stanley Chance has written hii mother-in-law, Mrs. Una' WW t that be Is j back in France after making? the rounds from Germany, Belgium land Luxemburg '- -v -. . - ' .

Hal McAbee Tells Story of Three Days and Two Nights On Iwo Jima Battle Front , IWO JIMA -(Delayed)- A field artillery : forward observer, Ma rine Second Lt Hal V. McAbee, returned to his battalion position with a tale of three days and two nights of deadly drama at a front line post surrounded on three sides by Japs. fit was the toughest 53 hours I've ever sweated out" said the lieutenant, who lives at 999 Lo cust st, Salem, Ore. ; iThe 23-year-old artillery offi cer moved up to the forward ob server post on the 13th day of this campaign with seven men, all of whom returned safely. Mc Abee was replacing an f officer who had been killed. Even before his party i got to the front lines they came under heavy Jap sniper and mortar fire. "We brought our artillery! to play on the Jap fire," McAbee said, "but all we could do was stop it temporarily. We couldn't knock it out" i Sniper fire poured down; on McAbee's position day and night One sniper alone accounted ! for three marine infantry dead 'and 14 wounded. , ; : I "No one has seen anything of war until they see what i the . in fantry takes," added the lieuten ant, who is a member of the 13th regiment Fifth marine division. "We were so close to Jap posi sitions that we were afraid to sleep nights," he added, 'because there was danger that the Japs would sneak into our foxholes with knives or grenades." ! ? Tp.
