Servicemen's Ad Outlined By FSA Farm Committees To Aid Veterans i i The serviceman’* readjustment act, better known as the GI bill of rights, was explained and discussed in a meeting of the farm security administration held in Peru last week. A. Leigh Bowen, FSA supervisor for Adams , Jay and Wells counties, and Miss L«»na L. Domseif, office manager, were present to obtain information regarding this program. The “G. 1. bill,” Mr. Bowen said, states "that a veteran may obtain help from the veterans administration in the fields of education, hospitalization, employment, readjustment allowances, and guarantees of loans for certain purposes. These guarantees may be for the establishment of the veteran in business, for the purchase of a home, for the purchase of a farm, or for the purchase of capital goods needed to operate a farm efficiently. "To assist the veterans administration in making a determination of the soundness of any farm loan guarantees, they have asked the department of agriculture to do three things. One of these is to establish a committee in each county where the veteran can come for information and guidance. This committee is under the supervision of the extension service, and complete details as to its functions may be obtained from ithe county agent. “A second committee to assist the veterans administration is composed of the regular Adam? county FSA committee, Henry Rumple, mute 2.
