QUESTIONS ON VA CHECKS MUST BE SENT TO INDIANAPOLIS

Indiana veterans awaiting subsistence checks from the Veterans Administration have been wasting rhoney on Idng distance calls to the VA offices in St. Louis, under the 'erroneous impression that the office there is responsible for the issuance of such checks under the CJI Bill. St. Louis officials informed the Indiana Regional Office they believed the calls resulted from information that the St. Louis disbursing office of the Treatury Department issues checks for veterans training in Indiana. The Treasury Department’s disbursing office only completes the routine of filling out and mailing the checks after the information lias been furnished by the Indiana VA office. Any question involving VA payments to Indiana Veterans must be referred to the VA Regional Office in Indianapolis and veterans are advised that calls to the VA office in St. Louis or to the Treasury disbursing office sre a waste of money.
