In a gay. rollicking program at
the school last night Seward chil
dren showed parents just how to
get laughs and pull a heartstring
or two.
The theme of the program was
built around Santa’s having over
slept, with the children of many
countries rallying 'round to Help
him in the pinch.
The songs were excellent, and
the program never dragged a mo
ment from start to finish, while

PENSION REGULATIONS
EASED FOR VETERANS
Veterans over 55 years of age
who have non-service connected
disabilities may now qualify for
Veterans Administration pensions
under recent regulation changes,
the VA reports.
VA regulations now specify that
a veteran, age 55, with a non-ser
vice connected disability rating of
60 percent for one or more disabil
ities permanent in nature, and who
is unemployable, may be consul- I
ered permanently and totally dis- I
abled for VA pension purposes, j
Previously, a disability rkting of!
60 percent for one permanent dis- j
ability, or a combined rating of 70 !
percent with one or more ratoble '
at 40 percent, was required.
At age 60, veterans may qualify '
for VA pensions if they have non
service connected disabilities rat'd
50 percent in degree and are un
able to follow a substantially gain- ,
fid occupation because of the dis
ability. At age 65, the disability
requirement is only 10 percent.
The VA emphasizes that the re
gulation change affects only pen
sions for non-service connected
I
disabilities, as distinguished from
the compensation paid for service
connected ailments.
Informaton or applications for
VA pensions under the new rules
may be obtained from the nearest
VA office.
