Newspaper Page TextTUESDAY, JANUARY 27. 1959 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THREE VA Chief Explains Law No part of benefit payments (torn social security can be waived by veterans or their widows who must meet certain income limita lions to be eligible (or nonservice- connected disability or death pen sion from the Veterans Adminis tration. Thai statement was issued re tently by Ft. J. Novotny. manager ot the VA Regional Office in Port land, who said he is receiving many queries on the subject. Novotny said a boost in social security payments which will be reflected in the checks delivered during early February, may cause tome persons to become ineligible or VA pension because their "other income" will exceed $1,400 annually (if without dependents) or $2,700 I if with dependents I. Many of the affected pensioners mistakenly believe they may waive part of their social security benefits and thus bring their oth er income" below the annual limi 'tations established for VA pen (ion, Novotny added. - Income limitations for VA pen tion purposes apply to veterans and widows of veterans of World War I, World War II. and the Ko 'rean conflict. They do not apply to veterans or widows of veterans of wars before World War I, No votny explained. He also pointed out that until the person receiving social secur ity has actually received an 'amount equal to the total social security contributions taken from his salary or wages in the past, the monthly social security pay ments do not count as income and do not have to be reported.

(AP)-A gold en-haired little girl with a patched up heart will celebrate the "best est" day of her life next Tuesday at the White House. That's the day Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower will crown six-year-old Debbie Quinn as America's Valentine Girl for 1959. The American Heart Assn. chose Debbie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Quinn of La Porte, as a symbol of hope for the 1959 heart fund campaign. Debbie was born with four heart defects. She had a quarter-size hole between the ventricles of her heart; her pulmonary artery was too narrow: her great artery was displaced, and the right side of her heart was enlarged. But Dr. C. Walton Lillehei of the University of Minnesota Heart Hospital repaired Debbie s heart in a 72 hour operation that would have been impossible 10 years ago. The heart lung pump, which did the work of her heart and lungs during surgery, is a post World War II development. Just before the operation, Deb bie's brother Bobby, a year older than his sister, told Mrs. Quinn: Mommie, I bet when God made Debbie he-didn't happen to have a good heart around, so he said to her, 'take this one, Debbie, and when you are five years old I'll tell some doctor how to fix it for you so it will be as good as new.'
