No Hardship Is
VA Instruction
Oregon offices of the Veterans
Administration have received in­
structions that recovery of sub­
sistence allowance over-payments
from veterans in training under
the GI bill should be made in a
manner that will impose no hard­
ships, Thomas M. Craig, VA rep­
resentative in this area, said this
week.
Any veteran whose subsistence
has been suspended to balance
prior over-payments, and who can
show that undue hardship is re­
sulting, should apply to the VA
regional office for a readjust­
ment, Craig advised.
