Loans Available For War Veterans wbrld War TT veterans are today in the last year in which they may apply for GT home, farm or business loans, B. T. Stott, Officer-in-Charge of the South Bend V. A. Office said today. Congress has set July 25 1960, as the cut-off date in the postwar program tha has seen nearly five million World War II veterans take advantage of the GI Bill loan provisions since June 22, 1914. Stott pointed out that the law allows an additional year, or until July 25, 1961, for the processing and actual closing of loans. These dates do not pertain to Korean veterans who have until January 31, 1965, to make loan applications. If a World War II veteran also served in the Korean conflict he has until the 1965 date. Under the GI loan program, qualified World War II veterans are offered the opportunity to obtain VA guaranteed or insured loans to purchase, build or improve a home; buy a, farm or farm supplies; and buy or expand a business. Nationwide. 35 per cent of eligible World War II veterans have taken advantage of the loan program? While' tfte Indianapolis Regional Office does not break down its loan programs by wars, Mr. Stqtt, estimated that on the national basis some 125,000 veterans in Indiana have received home, farm or business loans. MILS SHE] LIVS )toI UPf ® 1 : This child has leukemia—one of the most tragic forms of I cancer. Only research has kept her alive. Ten years ago, children stricken with leukemia—can-. I -r cer of the blood-forming tis- 1 sues—had only a few weeks or months of life. Today, many of these children have had precious months, even years, [ added to their lives, thanks to dramatic research discoveries. • ■ Until science finds the means to save them, however, they live on borrowed time. Tha American Cancer Society’s research program includes $1,500,000 annually for research related 1o leukemia. Millions of dollars more are needed to conquer this grim disease — which kills 2,000 1 children each year, and is taking an increasing toll of adult lives. ,Melp research find the an- ’ swers that will save these Hves. Give generously to ’ the American Cancer Society’s intensive research v assault against leukemia * * *nd all other forms of ^cancer, ^AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY

An exceptionally low record of defaults has won the.high approval • of the nation’s financial leaders r and an extremely high percentage , of the loans have been repaid in advance of the final due dates. z/ i CARI) OF ■ THANKS X I My sincere thanks to our many friends and neighbors for the wonderful acts of kindness received ■ during the recent death of our father, Charles.
