Wn Washingtan, D. C., is able to bring readers this weekly column on problems of the veteran and serviceman and his family. Questions may be addressed to the above Bureau and they will b+answered in a subsequent column. No replies can be made direct by mail, but only in the column which wilt appear in this newspaper regularly. When Will Vets Return? The Washington office of Western Newspaper Union has received scores of letters from parents, wives, sweethearts and friends of men in service, all asking when their loved ones will get out of the service. We cannot answer these letters with any degree of accuracy because there is no way of ascertaining when men with a given number of points in a given theatre will be released. There are too many circumstances which must be considered in any particular area. Here, however, is the promise of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, made m of choice Swiss feMetasM journalism staff, G. A.

His insurance was made to his parents and neither the baby or I was mentioned in the papers. Now his parents are drawing this. Is there any way for me to get this or any part of the insurance?--Mrs. O. M. C., Crossville, Ala. A.

Would it be possible for a vet* eran's widow who is receiving a Spanish American war pension of $30 per month, to exchange it for a World War pension-to whi^h she is also entitled? How would she go about making the exchange?--B. M. D., Elk Mills, Md. A. Yes, the veterans' administration says it is possible. Consult your nearest regional veterans' administration office, probably at Richmond or Baltimore. Q. We had a nephew who was in the army in the Philippines when war was declared. He was taken prisoner and died in a Jap prison camp in July, 1942«jle did not carry insurance. His mother is a widow and is she entitled to receive any compensation? The boy's father was a World War I veteran and died in 19M.--His Aunt, Watsontown, Pa. A. I would say that the widowed mother, if she was dependent upon the veteran, is entitled to a pension. However, she should file a claim with the nearest office of the veterans' administration, probably at Vhiladephia or Pittsburgh, and they will determine her eligibility. farm located 4% miles Southeast property at public auction "on his Q.
