Then he issved in- structions by letter to Gener Bradley, Administrator of Vete ans Affairs. “It is my desire,” the President wrote, “that, in carrying out the provisions of this law, you develop a system of recruitment and place- ment which will grant priority to qualifisd veterans.” re- If you have a claim for sion for disability which lieve or knew was caused L cervice, you may have to s the patience of a totem pole The Veterans’ Administraticn started the year with over 330,000 pending claims—claims wkich were received and given claim number but which had mot been acted on.
