pensation commission disclosed
that only 6530 veterans, or less
than five per cent of Oregon's
World War II veteran population,
had exhausted their benefits, which
amount to $20 a week for a max
imum of 52 weeks for the unem
ployed ex-GI and $100 for slight
ly more than ten months of self
employed.
Meanwhile, efforts to get Con'
gress to extend the deadline were
stalemated, according to Washing
ton reports. Arguments put forth
to congressmen by veterans'
groups nationwide, including thsj
advisory committee to the Ore
gon veterans' department, urging!
the time extension were these:
1. Veterans graduating from,
college are having difficulty find
ing Jobs in the current recession.
2. The recession Is forcing the
lay-off of veterans ahead of oth
er workers because they were
hired last and lack senority.
I. The bulk of veterans have
not yet earned sufficient wage
credit to draw state unemploy
ment benefits. In Oregon, the
STJCC said only 63 per cent of
94,680 veterans who filed for GI
benefits since 1944 will be pro
tected by state jobless payment
when the veterans' program runs
ont. On top of this, the state vet
erans' department said, must bej

benefits.
Oregon veterans received $81,-)
330,000 in federal Jobless pay in
tha nearly rive years 01 tne pro'
gram. The Jobless peak was in
early March of this year wheni
24,329 veterans drew benefits ln
one week. The lightest load, 1152
veterans, occured In October,
1948.
Bank Business Loans
Still Continue Drop
WASHINGTON (,?) An
unprecedented, uninterrupted half
year s drop in bank loans to bus!
ness was chalked up this week.
The Federal Reserve Board re
ported the 26th consecutive week
ly decline in such loans for the
seven days ended July 13.
The week's drop was $12,000,
000. That was far less than the
average weekly downslide which
hss carried business loans by
banks down $2,629,000,000 from
the all-time peak reached last
Dec. 22.
The figures, gathered by the
board from reserve system banks
in the nation's leading cities,
showed the total of business loans
by these institutions had shrunk
to $12,993,000,000 on July 13.
Real estate loans alone were
nearly one-fourth as high at $4,-
126.000,000. That was a new rec
ord posted for this category aft
er an $11,000,000 increase in the
July IS week.
Tha business loan decline Is
generally attributed to reluctance
of businessmen to borrow to build
up inventories during a time of
idecUnjiig prices.
