PAGE SIX s VETERAN By MAJOR THOMAS M. NIAL I e a big breath and plunge into the mail The first letter is from T. E. M., just across the Potamic in Arling- ton, Va. He writes, “You have ex- plained that a service-connected disability may be pensionable at so much a month according to the persentage of disability. T was dis- c.arged from the Navy without any notation on my discharge that I Lave a disability. “What I want to know is — who decide whether an ex-serviceman ..as a service-connected disability?” The Veterans’ Administration has the final say. It can reverse any decision of the Army or Navy medical sections If you believe you have a dis- ability due to service and incurred in service, and you think you can prove it to the satisfaction of the VA disability rating board, ask the VA for a Form 526 Fill it out completely, and re- turn it to the Veterans’ Admin- istration. There, it will be “Adjudi- cated,” and theyll let you know the answer later just ta Question from A. C. S, Tulsa:} “Having read your column regularly | in the “World", I have a question to ask. Can a discharged soldier| apply for “training-on-th2-job” or| does that part of the GI Bill apply only to the disabled veteran?” The training or education offer- ed by the GI Bill is for all eligi.le veterans, disabled or not. Training- on-the-job is just one kind of train- ing—it's very much like apprenticz training, and you get it under the GI Bill education provisions. Query from W. K. L, Seattle: What is the present income tax set-up for veterans, as far as their service pay is concerned? Here's ,the latest pitch on the income-tax deal. The new tax bill which made headlines a few weeks ago says in effect that all service pay carned by enlisted men will be forgiven for income tax pur- poses. In fact, if you were an en- listed man you don't even have to file & return—providing you didn’ have any outside incoms. For officers, it's different. They do have te pay an in.ome tax oun earned service pay, but the new law gives them up to thre: years after their discharge to make good on it. No interest can be charged durin these three years on any unpaid portion of their income tax. Of course, while in ths ice offi- cers get the $1,500 exemption, just like the enlistad men. 1 seem to remember that one of the large service organizations said the new tax measure didn't give veterans a thing, because enlisted men wouldn't have to pay an in- come tax anyway, except perhaps a few master or top sergeants, since the $1,500 exemption tock care of just about the whole works. And eiving officers three addition- 8l vears to et sinv v Sam is just delaying the day of LU LuAat's tne way it is. v Here's a question quite a few dis- abled officers are asking. It come from M. B. J, San Francisco: “I appealed, under Section 302 of the GI Bill against the decision of an Army retiring board, but the re- view board rejected my claim. Am i P 5" GUIDE I entitled to know the basis for the rejection You're not entitled to know why the retiring board or why the re- view board gave you the boot You are allowed to know as many facts about the proceedings of the review board as you would know if you had been there in person. But you can't get the dope on why they turned you down. The Board de- bates and nods behind hush-hush doors. I don’t blame you if you think it’s all fouled up, because even the U. 8. Supreme Court gives a de- fendant or plaintiff the reason for an unfavorable decision. - ALASKA POTTERS GIVE LIFE MEMBERSHIP T0 BURNETT, KILN-MAKER ‘The “Alaska Potters” held thei regular monthly business moetin, Tuesday night at the home of Mis Henry Harmon with 16 members in attendance.
