However, after sending in his insurance papers, the government wrote they didn't give it to grandmothers. Is there anything I can do or anyone I could write to so I can get it? Mrs. C. E. H., Hinsdale, III. A.--The veterans administration informs us that legally, grandpar ents are not included in the ran^e of kinship to whom insurance is payable, but in your case suggest tha' you legally establish your, loca parental, or that you have acted a: parent to this boy and contact youi nearest regional veterans administration office. Your local selective service board, Red Cross, or othe; service organization can aid you with your qasej ' Q.'--My boy has been in the South Pacific 18 moiulis. He is on Titian Island, U. S. Naval base hospita No. 19, Navy No. 3247. When wili he be home on a furlough?--Mrs. T. H. G., Vernonia, Oregon. A.--You do not give sufficient information concerning your son's time in service to venture an answer. You should give his age and complete service record. Q.--Does the period a serviceman enlists for mean anything or not? Our son became 18 years of age last January 29. He enlisted in the navy for the duration of the war and six months after,, now he has been sent to Japan and that surely does not look as if he is to be released soon. I am particularly concerned because he has another year in high school. Some boys in his «class who entered service last year are back in school now. How can that be for one and not for all? Isn't the war over since August? Mother, Sunbury, Pa. A.--You are right; it does not look as though your son will be home soon. The war is not over, and will not be over until so declared by the President or congress. No peace1 treaty has been signed. Only the i surrender of Japan and Germany has been concluded. Unless he i. released on points before, your soils eligible for service for six montlu after formal declaration of end o the war is made. Q.--Will a veteran who draws the $20 a week until he draws ten week: ever get a bonus? If a veicrar who is 100 pec cent disabled shouk get a light job would it cut his pen sion down? Mrs. M. K., Carrolton Ga. ' A.--Benefits received under th( G.I. bill of rights will be deducte; from any future bonus received bj the veteran. This does not apply, however, to disability payments. It a 100 per cent disabled veteran is able to hold a light job, it will not cut his pension, since it does not alter his disability rating. Year's dinner.
