4 THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1946 THE EAGLE, VERNONIA, ORE. THE POCKETROOK OF KNOWLEDGE By PILGRIM ^WASHINGTON \ Q. Does a certificate of dis ability discharge automatically qualify a veteran for a pension? A. No. Disability pensions are rated upon a service connection of a disability or an aggravation of a pre-existing injury or dis ease. No pension is payable to a non - service - connected disability unless that disability is total and permanent. Q. Is a loan for household fur niture eligible for' insurance or guaranty ? A. No. Q. When is National Service Life Insurance considered lapsed? A. It is lapsed when a veteran fails to make a payment of pre mium within 31 days after the date it was due. Q. I wish to buy an $8000 home but I have no down pay ment although I have a good job. Do I have to put up any collateral or • security for the loan and do I have to lay out any cash for a down payment? A. Under the servicemen’s re adjustment act you may be able to secure from a local lending agency a loan on which the Vet erans Administration guarant- tees up to $4000 provided it is not more than 50 per cent of the total outlay. In this case $4000 would be exactly half, so you may not have to put up a cent to ob tain the loan, other than neces- «ary fees. However, it is up to the lending agency to decide if you are a good risk. Q. How long do I have to convert my term insurance to a permanent form ? A. You can keep term insur ance for eight years from the time it was taken out, if it was taken out before January 1, 1946, or five years if it were taken out on or after that date. • Forty Boys Slain When the bandits captured the Chinese village with the Mission School, they gave the Christian boys a chance to deny Christ and live. Forty of these boys chose death rather than to deny their Lord—He who died for them. And here in America what does it cost to be a Christian ? In the Pacific coast states, 84 per cent of the school children under 17 years of age are not in Sunday school. To round up and teaih these juveniles is the chal lenge. If left to drift, young America must sink further into crime, lewdness, profanity, drunk enness and what not. You are saved by believing God’s Word, the Bible, that Christ died for your sins. God gives you new birth into his eternal family when you stand on His Word, that you are cleared. Like these Chinese lads, God’s man should take his stand. He may not be called, to die for his faith, but he should prove Christ by his life. A saved soul should be at work to save others, looking to Christ for the strength. And there is sure reward—“If any man serve Me, Him will My Father honor.” —JESUS CHRIST. The Chinese boys served by giving their lives. Where do you serve ? - S.W. McChesney Rd., Portland 1, Ore.

Mr. Truman has been criticized vigorously by newspapers all over the nation. Even papers ordinarily partial to labor have been ham mering him. It was easy to point out from previous statements the president made how he reversed himself in 1947 FEDERAL BUDGET CALLS FOR some of the arguments he used EXPENDITURES OF against the Case bill. $35 BILLION — There were other inconsisten OVER N TIMES THAT OF 1939 cies. It was all too apparent that Mr. Truman relied heavily on the CIO statement on the bill in writ ing his veto message. And it is apparent that he is relying on the labor vote to offset the public re action against his refusal to sign comprehensive labor legislation. With no major strikes at the moment, the expectation of funda mental labor legislation at this session of congress is dying away. -M e first E uropean An exception is the Hobbs anti CANNON FIRED STONE BULLS racketeering legislation which, passed by the house some time ago, was reported unexpectedly by the senate judiciary committee and then passed unanimously by the upper house.
