Seven per cent are disabled from tuberculosis, 23 per cent from neuropsychiatry conditions and 70 per cent from general medical and surgical disablements. Question* and Anqwera Q. I would greatly appreciate If you would aid me in getting information cbout my husband, who was reported missing in action on Leyte from November 9, 1944, until February 5, 1945, when he was finally reported killed in action. I have received no details from the government as to what actually happened, and I have not received any of his personal effects so far. Also packages mailed to him after his death have not been returned. I thought if you would insert this question in your Veterans' Service Bureau column I might possibly be able to get some details from a veteran who happened to have gone through the action on Leyte and would know my husband. He was Pvt. Ross I. Sensibaugh, Company C., 21st Infantry. --Mrs. Moema Sensibaugh, 2715 Patee street, St. Joseph 38, Mo. A. I would suggest that you write a letter addressed to the commanding officer of his company and also a letter to Casualty branch, Adjutant General's office, War department, Washington 25, D. C. And I hope that some veteran will read thetic abrasives are products of the the first compartment of their ! electric furnace and^in hardness apcomplicated stomachs.

But with that cute face and wide smile, nothing could spoil her looks. When yon see Paramount^ "The Imperfect Lady," look at the driver of the carriage in which Teresa Wright and Virginia Field ride. He's George Jenner, who was carriage footman to Queen Victoria for two years, 1892 to 1894, the period in which "The Imperfect Lady" is set. He met arriving foreign potentates and conducted them to Buckingham palace. So it's practically type casting. ^ "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again" and think of Ray Milland. The world seems to be his since he made "Lost Week-End," but he made three trips from London to Hollywood before ho fiaally hit his stride as a film actor. For a brief Shakespearean episode with Sonny Tufts and Michael Chekov in "Cross My Heart," Paramount rented a get from John Carradine which he is reported to have purchased for $50. Paramount paid Carradine $400 a week.' Q. As .we are parents of s son who served in World War I, and as we are Gold Star parents would like to be informed how to go about receiving a pension?--Mrs. R. A. W., TannersviUe, N. I. A. Write or go to Veterans' administration unit office at Poughkeepsie or office at Albahy. Q. I would like to know why some young men in the service can get out on 4 months service and some on 8 months, while others are in 3 and 4 years and still serving.--Miss E. H., GayriUe, S. D. A. Some get out in less than two months as a matter of fact, mostly due to disability for physical ailment. Q. My son has boon in the army since September 11,1944, and overseas for over a year with the 77th division and now with the 74th military government in Japan. We need him on our farm because our 18-year-old son can't carry the increased spring work alone and my husband and I can't do any more than we are doing. Is there any possible way to get our soldier son's release for his. much needed help at home? -- Mrs. R. E. H., Isaquah, Wash. A. There are a good many thousands in your position, but there are still many thousand men in the service much more eligible for release than your son. However, if he can make out a hardship case, he should apply to his commanding officer for a release on those grounds. Q. 1 entered the army in April, 1942. My father died and I was discharged August 20. I remained in four and a^half months. Can I get the Bill of Rights? --A Worried Farmer, Bowman, Ga. A. If you received an honorable discharge and had at least 90 days of active service you are entitled to benefits of the G.I. bill. Q. My son died In Germany January 5, 1946. We want his body brought back to the USA and to have this done, who should we get in Contact with? Will we have to bear any of the expense and do you have any idea when our boys' bodies will be brought home? -- Mrs. E. C. R., Sanger, Texas. A. Legislation is now before congress, providing for an appropriation and method of bringing the bodies of American soldiers, sailors and marines interred in military cemeteries abroad, to this country.

That was the last shot of the day, and the company ganged up on her; Director William Dieterle asked her to do it once more. So up the stairs and out of view went the blonde star. Then she came back, and found, that while she was on her way up the whole company had quietly beat it. ~~ ^ • --*-- • Bill Edwards recently introduced his screen self to his fiancee, Hazel Allen--took her to a Paramount projection room where "Our Hearts Were Young and Gay" was being run off. And she confessed that she'd gone to see the picture some time ago, after a hard day at the doctor's office where she's an assistant, but couldn't remember anything about it; seems she slept right through it! •« Frank Readick told this one at a "Crime Doctor" rehearsal.

"See," she said, "th$y went, to church every Sunday." George glanced at the picture, noted the guns carried by the men, and replied, "Gee whiz, mother, I'd go to church every day in the wefek if I could shoot Indians on the way!"
