TOI MZSFORD (OREGON) MAIL TMBUHE Wednesday, March II, 1U1 Vocational Training Still Available To Disabled Vets Vocational reha bilitation training is still available to vet erans who were disabled during World War II, In spite of the fact that most veterans no long er can begin training under the GI bill, it has been announced by the Veterans Administration. According to the VA, two en tirely different laws are involv ed, and some disabled veterans have believed that the termina tion of their benefits under the BI bill also terminated their rights to vocational -rehabilitation. Under Public Law 16 Rehabilitation training for dis abled veterans, the VA said, is provided for under Public Law 16, the vocational rehabilitation act, which is still available. The only requirement is that train ing must be completed by July 25, 1956. This would permit the beginning of a two-year school course, for example, as late as July, 1954. However, any disabled vet eran requiring , 48 months of training should make applica tion of the VA immediately, in order to start training before July. 1952. The Servicemen's Readjust- mi.

CENTRAL MEDFOkT ment Act, the so-called GI bill, expired for most World War n veterans on July 25, 1951, which was the final cut-off date for starting training for all veterans discharged before July 25, 1947. The VA said any World War II veteran, or Korean veteran, with a service-connected dis ability, is entitled to apply to the VA for training, and he will be allowed to enroll if it is determ ined that he is in need of voca tional rehabilitation and is otherwise eligible. Korean veterans, the VA pointed out, need not actually have served in Korea, so long as their service on active duty has been since June 27, 1950. Disabled veterans of either World - War II or the Korean campaign can apply for rehabili tation training at any VA office, 117 S.
