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 ?

The reaction to President Tru
man’s veto of the Case bill has
not been pleasant either for
the chief executive, or his party
leaders.
Mr. Truman has been criticized
vigorously by newspapers all over
the nation. Even papers ordinarily
partial to labor have been ham
mering him.

Mr. Truman relied heavily on the
CIO statement on the bill in writ

apparent that he is relying on the
labor vote to offset the public re

comprehensive labor legislation.
