YOUR G. I. RIGHTS—

Discharge of Yank End Foxhole Scholarships

By ANN BTEVICK NEA Staff Writer Q—Can a veteran take up a

course of study with the armed

forces institute or resume one he was taking before discharge? A—No, these foxhqle scholar=ships by which so many soldiers have tutored themselves in everything from electronics to philosophy, are strictly G. I.—that is, they are paid for out of moneys earmarked for the welfare of enlisted men, and army is very watche ful that nobody else, including the veterans, gets any of it. You won't even be allowed to finish a course you are taking when discharged. Q—Must I pay a fee-for having

a claim presented before the Vet- | erans’ administration? | A--Organizations which vet-| erans’ administration recognizes for presentation of claims (American Red Cross, American Legion, Disabled Veterans, Grand Army of the Republic, United - Spanish War Veterans, Veterans of Foreign Wars) must state that neither they nor their representatives will charge a fee, In order to prevent the pension and claim attorney rackets which | thrived after the last war, VA rules also that attorneys acting for cr.

erans’ claims must be specially certified, and must accept as their fee an appropriate amount awarded by | VA out of amount given to claim- | ant. In.other words the veteran isn't supposed to pay any fee.
