LAW CHANGES POLICY ON
G. I. FLIGHT TRAINING
Veterans now may take flight
training under the G.I. Bill with
out necessarily submitting to the
Veterans Administration complete
jusifieation that the course will be
taken in connection with their con
templated business or occupation.
This change in flight training
policy is contained in Public Law
266, the Independent Offices Ap
propriation Act of 1950, recently
passed by Congress and signed
into law by the President.
Instead of complete justification,
a veteran planning to take G.I.
flight training now may submit to
the VA a certificate in the form of
an affidavit, together with corrob
orating affidavits by two compe
tent disinterested persons. The af
fidavits must show that flight
training will be useful to him in
connection with earning a live
lihood.
In the absence of substantial
evidence to the contrary, the VA
will accept the affidavits as con
stituting compliance with the law.
If they wish, veterans desiring
flight training may submit com
plete justification that the training
would be in connection with their
present or contemplated business
or occupation, rather than submit
affidavits authorized by the new
law, the VA said. This is the pro
cedure which has been in effect
during the past year.

A get-together arranged last eve
ning by the Seward Woman's Club
in the form of a reception proved
that the people of Seward do enjoy
an informal friendly evening. The
purpose of last night’s meeting
was to introduce the school teach
ers to the townspeople, and inci
dentally to make the acquaintance >!
of new residents.
Besides the new teachers, mem
bers from the staff of the Sana
torium and Jesse Lee Home, there
were four families present, all of
whom have come into town within
the last few months.
We feel that tiiis sort of unde
nominational, impartial and mixed
social gathering, if repeated occa
sionally, will do something toward
strengthening community friendli-i
ness, and create t lie possessive
feeling that builds up community
pride and spirit.
Where one is made welcome, is
made to feel that he is part of the
community, and finds friends eager
to include him in their group, that
person is likely to settle down, be
come a home owner and a depend
able asset to the community. That
is the sort of citizenry Seward must
encourage in order to offset the
probable boom town type which
swarms in with the opening of the
highway and other developments.
We must build a stable, steady, and
sturdy foundation within the nexi
few years.
Readers of this column will bo
glad to know that the little dog
whicTi was lost last week has been
found and returned to his master.
Our thanks and that of Mr. Keith
Lee and his little son Paul, go out
to the many people who called in
about the puppy.
Several dogs were tied up until
we could see and identify them.
But the right one was found by a
lady whose name I do- not know
just now, and was kept at her
home until it could be picked up.
I am happy, Paul is happy, Susie
is happy, we all are happy. Thank
you!
