10 Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Wednesday, May 21, 1952 LIKE WORLD WAR II VETS Korean Vets Will Get War Benefits If Congress Agrees By JAMES MABLOW Washington VP) Veterans of the Korean war will get benefits similar to those given World War II veterans if a measure approv ed by the House Veterans Com mittee Is passed by Congress. Before House and Senate okay uch a bill, if they do, they may make changes. So the finished product is apt to be different from the committee version. But this is a quick look at it as it tands. The benefits apply not only to members of the armed for ces who served in the Korean theater but to all who were in the armed forces, at home or abroad, on or after June 27, 1950. Education If he served at least 90 days, a man gets l'A days of education or training at government expense for each day of service but no more than 36 months. And he must apply within two years after discharge. A World War II veteran who served at least 90 days got a minimum of 15 months. The maximum was 48 months. With out going into details, it can be said generally he was allowed more time after discharge to ap ply. Education and Training Al lowance If he's enrolled in a course full-time, a Korea veter an gets $110 a month if he has no dependents and $150 if he has one or more. That's all. On that money he must live, pay his tu ition, buy his books. A World War II veteran got $75 a month to live on if he was single, $105 if he had one de pendent, and $120 if he had two or more dependents, plus his tu ition fees and book costs up to a limit of $500 a year. What of a World War II vet eran who was getting an educa tion under the old GI Bill of Rights and then had his educa tion interrupted by going back into the service? He'd be entitled, upon his dis charge, to finish out the time in school due him under the old GI bill, plus whatever schooling he earned as a Korea veteran, but no more than a combined to tal of 48 months. But a World War II veteran who didn't apply for his educa tional benefits before the dead line of July 25, 1951, set up for most World War II veterans, couldn't claim them now as a result of service in the Korean War. He'd get only the benefits due him as a Korea veteran. That July 25, 1951, deadline doesn't apply to men who had World War II service but were discharged after July 25, 1947. They have until four years after their discharge to apply for World War II benefits. Housing The same housing benefits for those who served on or after June 27, 1950, as pres ently are given World War II veterans: Guaranty of home loans up to 60 per cent with 1 maximum of $7,500; business loan guaranties of $2,000: and direct loans up to $10,000 in nc city areas where private financ ing is not available. The interest in all cases must not exceed 4 per cent. Social Security Korea and World War II veterans get the same wage credit for every month in service $160 for old age and survivors insurance. Mustering-out-pay In place of readjustment benefits, the mustering-out pay is $100 for less than 60 days' service; $200 for more than 60 days; $300 when there is more than 60 days' service which includes service overseas.
