Veterans’ Bulletin National Council of War Vets, Inc. INat I*. Johnson, National Commander, Kansas City, Kansas EDITOR'S NOTE: Ex-tcrv Icemen and women arc vitally interested in the benefits their Government offers them through Vet erans Administration and they arc asking thousands of questions daily. The following questions pertain only to veterans' benefits enacted by Congress. Quick action to prevent any delays in providing education or training for veterans under the new Korean GI Bill was taken by Carl R. Gray, Jr., Administrator of Veterans Affairs. Mr. Gray announced he has for mally requested the nation’s 48 state governors to appoint agen cies within their states to handle approval of schools and business establishments for training eligible veterans, Mr. Ashley Westmore land, Manager of the Veterans Ad ministration Regional Office, Lin-; coin, was notified today. The new law specifies that schools and training establish-1 ments must have state approval before they may offer training to veterans who served since the outbreak of Korean hostilities. This requirement also was a part of the original GI Bill for World War II veterans. Mr. Gray requested “early re ceipt” of the lists of state ap proving agencies, so that the Veterans Administration can start handling veterans’ applications before August 20—the date the new training program goes into effect. He suggested to the governors that the same approving agency may be designated for the Korean GI Bill that already has been do ing the job under the earlier World War II Act. He pointed out that a state may have either one agency to handle all types of ap provals, or separate agencies to approve various types of training —classroom, on-the-farm, appren ticeship, or on-the-job. The governors were reminded that the law allows VA to reim burse state approving agencies “for reasonable and necessary ex penses of salary and travel in curred in rendering necessary services under this Act.” Once an approving agency is appointed, he said, it will be sent a contract proposal for reimbursement of ex penses. He emphasized that approval granted to schools and training establishments under the original World War II GI Bill does not carry over for training under the new Korean Act. Schools and establishments must be re-inspect ed and re-approved for Korean GI Bill training, since in many cases they must meet different standards than those required un der the earlier law. To make certain that Post Korean veterans will be able to enroll in training without delay, Mr. Gray urged the states to approve first those schools which are accredited, since they do not demand extensive investigation. The new Korean GI Bill pro vides up to 36 months of training to veterans who were on active duty on or after June 27, 1950— the date of the outbreak of fight ing in Korea—regardless of where they served. While in training, they may receive an allowance from the government to cover part of their expenses. No allowance may be paid for any training taken prior to Augusl 20, the law states.
