Cases in point are where the widow is ineligible due to hav ing remarried or due to hav ing income in excess of limits prescribed by law.

Pension payments to the children are continued after the mother's name is removed from the rolls. Should Make Inquiry Brannock emphasized that in all cases where the widow has never applied for pen sion, or whose application was not allowed, due to her mar riage or excessive income, the VA may have no record of any minor children to which pay ments should be made. In such-cases the mother, or cus todian of the children, should make inquiry as to the chil dren's rights to pension. Likewise, where the moth er and widow applied for pen sion prior to June, 1960, and was denied because the vet eran did not have a service connected disability of 10 per cent or more at the time of his death, inquiry should be made concerning entitlement under a new law, Public Law 86-211, which became effect ive July 1, 1960, Brannock said. -i Unmarried minor, children of deceased veterans may be eligible for pension until they are 18 years of age, or if upon reaching 18 they are attend ing school, pension may con tinue until their 21st birthday, Brannock said.

K. Velliquette, Black well rd., a former Los Angeles city government official. He asked for minimum standards , such as wiring, water, sewage, location of buildings and reasonable structural requirements. But he said restrictions in the pro posed code are "going too far in a county too sparsely set tled" and are not necessary U.S. Military Advisers Due on Laos Battiefront Vientiane, Laos-flJPll-Ameri-can military advisers in uni form will make their first appearance soon on Laotian battlefronts as a token of the United States' determination to back Laos against the Com munist menace, U.S. Embassy sources said today. The U.S. soldiers will give "tactical and technical ad vice" to front-line battalions and smaller combat units, the sources said. They would be part of the Military Assist ance Advisory Group which the Laotian government asked for Wednesday and the United States agreed to supply. ' Decision Hailed Military observers here hailed America's decision to send the advisors to help train Laotian troops in their fight against the Communist-sup. ported rebels. But the immediate effect of the U.S. move was likely to stretch the already-thin diplo matic ties that bind some re luctant SEATO members in support of the royal Laotian government. In Washington, the Ken nedy administration was re ported ready to call for a mill tary alert by SEATO if the Soviet Union continues to de lay a cease fire in Laos. An administration official said the next few days would be critical. Britain has called on the Russians to agree to a cease fire by today, but there was doubt the Soviets would meet this deadline. , CORDIER-To Mr. and Mrs. Donald F., 643 Childers ave., Medford, April 20, 1961, a boy, 8 pounds, at Roguo Valley hospital.

Lovejoy said Velliquette's suggestions would be consider ed by the commission. Limited Support At least limited support of a code was expressed by a Medford man who identified himself as a carpenter who worked on many buildings outside the city limits. He said he had seen homes In the county which are dangerous because of bad construction, and declared that the people in this area need "some pro tection." Questions were asked the commission concerning the rights of the people to vote on such a code, and In criti cism of the power of the coun ty court to adopt a county building code. Lovejoy explained Hint the planning commission had call ed the public hearing to hear views of residents, and would later make a recommendation Widow's Estate More Than Million Portland -flJPD- An estate of $1,696,418 was loft by Mrs. Myrtle Maling, widow of an Oregon canning company owner, an inventory on file in Probate Court showed to day.
