Student vets promote
prisoner awareness
The Student Veterans Organization (SVO) is sponsoring a
Prisoner of War (POW) week starting Monday.
Jack McCurftion, state coordinator of the Nebraska chapter
of the National League of Families of Prisoners Missing in
Action in Southeast Asia, will speak Monday in the Nebraska
Union Ballroom at 10 a.m. McCurftion's son Michael, an N.U.
graduate, was captured May 8, 1967.
The group also is sponsoring a campaign for better
treatment of POWs. Pre-typed letters urging that prisoners be
treated according to Geneva Convention rules will be available
in the veterans' booth in the Union from 10:30 to 3:30 every
day this week. Letters will be sent to North Vietnamese
officials, according to SVO spokesman Harry Malone.
Veterans also will solicit signatures for a telegram to a joint
Congressional committee on increased benefits for veterans.
The House has approved a $25 a month increase for
veterans going to school, raising total benefits for an
unmarried vet to $200 a month. The Senate, however, passed a
bill raising payments by 43 per cent. The joint committee
must work out a compromise before Oct. 14, SVO Vice
President Jack Olig said, or the measure will be delayed
another year.
'We're hoping the telegram will get those people going and
make them do something concrete," he said.
Free bumper stickers and information about POWs will be
available at the SVO booth throughout the week.
