VETERANS GOING TO SCHOOL
WARNED ON MEETING COSTS
Veterans starting to school this
. fall under the Korean GI Bill
can avoid financial troubles by
taking along enough money of
their own to see them through
the first two months of training,
Veterans Administration said to
day.
Under the law, it takes about
two months for their first GI al
lowance checks to reach them,
VA explained. Once the allow
ances start coming, they will
cover every month of training
completed, as long as veterans
make sure their schools file
monthly attendance certificates
with the VA.
VA gave these reasons for the
length of time required to make
the initial GI allowance pay
ments:
First, under the law, the al
lowances must be paid after the
end of each month of training
completed, and not before. There
fore a veteran could not possibly
receive his money the day he en
ters school.
For veterans who begin train
ing after the 20th of the month,
the GI allowances usually are not
paid until some time after the
end of the following full month
of training.
These factors account for at
least one month’s delay, VA said.
Second, after the close of the
month, the veterans must sign a
cerification stating he was at
tending class during the month.
The school sends this cerifica
tion to VA. Usually, a veteran’s
check should go out within 20
days after the time VA receives
the certification.
VA explained that under the
Korean G.I Bill, a veteran receiv
es a single allowance check to
cover each month of training.
With the help of that check, he
must meet all his own training
expenses—tuition, books, fees,
supplies and the like.

Already registrations are ar
riving at the Extension office at
the University of Alaska for the
sixth annual Short Course for
homemakers which will be held
at the University October 7 to
15, according to Lydia Fohn Han
sen. Delegates will arrive from
the railbelt area and the highway
to meet at the university for a
week of study, entertainment
and discussion of work carried
on by the 70 clubs of Alaska.
Mrs. C. F. Brewer of Palmer,
president of the council, together
with other members of the coun
cil, has prepared an agenda of
club projects and plans to be dis
cussed. One important proposal
is to assist the library commis
sion.
The daily two hour Home Ec
onomics period will offer millin
ery by Mrs. Ralph Bailey; laun
dry methods by Mary Robinson;
use of home freezer by Carol
Winey, and home management
by Marylou Rideout. Mrs. Gray
Tilly and Miss Vena Clark of the

the University will conduct dis
cussions and demonstrations.
Tours include shopping in Fair
banks, visits to a gold dredge,
farms, new houses, and places of
interest on the campus.
Lodgings will be provided at
faculty homes and Northhaven
cabins. Local homemakers clubs
in the Fairbanks area will be hos
tesses at a tea given at President
Patty’s home for delegates, local

to supplement my GI training
pay, will my monthly allowance
be cut?
A. No. Outside earnings have
no bearing whatsoever on your
GI education allowance. Veter
ans in school will receive the
full rate of allowance regardless
of how much the earn. In fact,
they need not even report earn
ings to the VA.
