Regional Eip»Miwi: In line with the Veterans administration's objective of taking! the administration out to the "grassroots" of the country, rather than centralizing the organization in Washington, Administrator Omar N. Bradley has announced the opening of 21 new centrally-located regional offices and the contracting for approximately 300 advisement centers. Regional downtown offices wore opened in Des Moines, Wichita, Atlanta, Minneapolis, San Francisco. Portland, Indianapolis, Lot Ahgeles, Muskogee, Okla., Phoenix. Helena, Mont., Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Chicago, Newark, Hartford, Charleston, W. Va., and Charlotte, N. C. New advisement centers were opened at Greenville, S. C.; Benedict college, Columbia, S. C.; University of Kansas at Kansas City, Mo.; Tuskegee institute, Tuskegee, Ala.; Eastern Oregon college at La Grande, Ore., ami Superior State Teachers college, Superior, Wis. Services of the advisement centers are available to all veterans planning to continue their education or take vocational or rehabilitation training either under public law 16 or the G.I. bill of rights. Regional offices function as the operational offices of the administration. Individual case records are maintained at these offices and claims are rated and adjudicated. Almost all benefits administered by the administration can be handled at the regional office level. Question* and Anawert Q. In July, 1944, my brother was killed on Guam. I was made his beneficiary in his insurance policy. But before he went across he made a will that has never come to light and this is causing some trouble among the heirs as he was single. Another brother in service says a duplicate will was made and kept on record somewhere. Could you tell me where this will is kept?-- R. A. B., Houston, Mo. A. Of course we would have no knowledge where the will might be. You might write tp the finance officer of his outfit. If you are referring to national life insurance, the money will be paid to whoever was named beneficiary in the policy re-1 gardless of any will. Q. Would it be possible for a soldier to get a release from the srmy, if he is 25 years old, has a wife and three small children, who live In the country with no modern conveniences. The wife's health is not good and a 21-month-old baby daughter must have an operation for removal of a bone growth on her foot. He is now somewhere in Japan aboard a ship?--Mrs. M. E. M., Port Allegany, Pa. A. He is eligible to apply for release because of the three children. • Q* I have a friend who has been in the army siace December, 1944, Be left tbe states on July t, 1945 and Is now la Japan. He fcai no dependents and Is 19 years eld. WIO yon please tall ma haw many points he has and haw long It will be before he Is sent back to the states? -- Miss D. P., Dennisoa, Ohio. A. He has approximately 16 points as of December S, 1945 and needs 55 to become eligible for discharge. He probably has many more months to serve. Q. Win a mother who has a son killed In action, and who Is physically unable to make her owe sapport, lose her pension if she marries? Will a father's pension be discontinued If he marries? -- Mr. T. 8., Jackson, Tenn. t A. In the case of a parent, the question of marriage is not considered. The pension is based upon dependency and whether the parent, mother or father, has sufficient income to keep them. Q. My son was killed in Italy October 1 a year ago. Bis wife is named as beneficiary In his insurance but hasn't received any yet. What Is the delay? - A mother, Brownsville, Tenn. A. Have you filed a claim for your insurance? Suggest that you write to your aearest Veterans administration office, probably at Nashville or Memphis, set out all the facts and am sure you will get some action. Q- When a soldier has been through hen of the hattMUM for two yearsaadjas bean dhi^rttd with •an be cleared up by being at kmt and rest, hew ean ha get this psyeheaaaistls name el his discharge so he ean gate eoBegef--J. J. 0., Westby. Wis. A.
