Terminal Leave Bonds Not
'Negotiable For Five Years
The fact that recently discharged
ex-servicemen are receiving govern
ment terminal leave checks Is lead
ing other veterans wrongly to be
lieve that their own non-negotiable
five-year terminal leave Donus can
b rushed Immediately. George E.
Bandy, Oregon director of veterans'
affairs, said today In hastening to
explain the difference between the
iwo payment.
"If a veteran shows you his gov
ernment check marked 'terminal
leave,' and this check amounts to
more than 150, you can be sure .that
he was discharged after August 31,
1046. and Is actually on terminal
leave and Is being paid 'or accrued
leave time up to a maximum of 60
davs." Bandy explained.
"Now. If the same shows vou av

naman of Denver, senior vice com
mander of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars.
Brannaman has Just returned
from Alaska, and he says the em
ployment situation there, among
.venturesome young war veterans
who nave neaaea norm wun insuf
ficient financial reserves, Is not
good.
"Already the Salvation Army and
VFW and other organizations are
having to take care of some of
those ex-OI's," Brannaman told a
reporter. .
"Costa up there, for transporta

Just about twice what they are In
the states, and some of those boys
are In a hell of a shape.
. "Even with spring opening up,
there's not a world of Jobs in I
Alaska. The veteran who wants a
Job In Alaska can best get it In
Seattle; where the territory does
most of its hiring, before he leaves.
"That way. too, his passage will be
provided both ways." Brannaman
said.
his check," the director went on,
"then It means that he had accumu
lated more than 60 days of leave
before the armed forces terminal
leave act went Into effect last Au
gust 31. In this case, the bond is
payment for-that part of his leave
over the 60 days, and like all such
bonds, Is non-negotiable and can
not be cashed for five years."
In reviewing last year's armed
forces terminal leave act, these
points were stressed.
i. aii ennstea men witn unused
leave time up to the time of the act
of August 31 would be paid for this
unused time. Just as officers always
were paid, up to a maximum of 120
days. The act provided that the en
listed men s pay lor tnis unused
leave would be In the form of bonds,
to pay off five years after discharge.
2. After August 31, 1946, no one
In service could accumulate more
than 60 4ays of unused leave, but
officers and enlisted personnel
would get the same treatment, going
on terminal leave at time of dis
charge and receiving pay until their
leave time Is consumed.
