New Benefits
Available to
Veterans Kin
Several thousand widows and
children of decensed veterans
of Wcrld War It and the Korean
Conflict will become eligible to
receive pension bebefits on July
1. These dependents will be en
titled to these benefits as the
result of a new pension law enacted
by Congress last year, according
to Herbert Ray, Coun-
ty Service Officer with the
Vet-etnn- s
Administration.
Prior to passage of the new
law, known as the Veterans Pen
slon Act of 1950, dependents of
deceased World War II and
Korean Conflict veterans were
entitled to pension only if the
veteran had a disability which
tesultecl from his active military
sendee. The new law provides
benefits to the dependents of
deceased veterans of World War
II and Korean Conflict if the
dependents meet ceitain limitations
with regard to income and
the size of their estate.
Ray sail mm n very small
percentage of the widows and
children tn Texas who could
benefit from this new law have
applied to the Veterans Administration
for ihe benefits to
which they are entitled. Ray
pointed-cu- t that the children of
deceased World War II nnd
Korean veterans nre eligible to
pension, even though their
mother may have remarried
since the death of her veteran
husband, and even though the
children may have been adopted
by the mother's new husband.
These children are eligible to
receive pension while they are
unmarried and under the age
of eighteen years. They may con
tinue to receive pension until
age twenty-on- e if they lemoJn
unmarried and ate attending an
approved school, and may receive
pension indefiritely if
they became physically or "men-
tally incapable of se'lf-support
before their eighteenth birthday.
Unremarried widows and the
custodians cf dependent children
may rer eive further information
and assistance in obtaining these
benefits by contacting Herbert
Ray nt Jus office in the Oatcs
Drusr Store Building, Haskell,
ii from any office of the Veterans
Affairs Commission of Texas.

Couriers Return
From Visit In
Durango, Colo.
A 1.500 mile trip to the
mountains and scenic area of
Colorado ordinarily would oe
consideicd a vacation in itself
by most people.
Then, add an opportunity to
visit children and grandchildren
and to attend the graduation
of a grandson as an honor
student, and you have the
ingredients for the finest sort
of vacation trip.
A vacation of this kind was
recently enjoyed by Mr. and
Mrs. Chas. M. Conner of this
city, when they visited their
daughter and family, Mr. and
Mrs. Raybon Lam in Durango,
Colo.
Accompanied by another
daughter, Mrs. Forest B. Bu-for- d
and children of Sweetwater,
the party drove to Durango
by way of several points of interest
In New Mexico.
Principal occasion for the
trip was to attend Commencement
for the 10GO Class of Durango
High School, where
Charles Conner Lam was an
honor student.
The Conners and Mrs. Bu-for- d
and children spent several
days in Durango. and visited
some of the scenic spots
in that aiea while there.

the ground early by getting his
