SERVICEMEN IN SOUTH KOREA MAY GAIN SOME VA BENEFITS American servicemen called into action in Southern Korea might .be eligible for several ben efits administered by the Veter ans Administration, it has been announced. Those who suffer injury or disease in line of duty may be entitled to disability compensa tion pay at full wartime rates, despite the fact that this nation is not at war. Dependents of those who might lose their lives in action may be entitled to death compensatiçn benefits at wartime rates. • Full wartime rates for disabil ity and death compensation, aris ing under conditions similar to the Korean situation, are author ized by Public Law 359, 77th Con gress, passed 12 days after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Under that law, wartime rates are payable for disability death resulting from injury disease received in line of duty “(1) as a direct result of armed conflict, or (2) while engaged in extra hazardous service, includ ing such service under conditions simulating war, or (3) while the United States is engaged in war.” The Korean action brings the first and second categories into play. The VA pointed out that those taking part in action in Korea would not be entitled to G.T. Bill benefits as a result of that serv They would otherwise have ice. to 'be eligible because of military service in World War II. Question of the Week Q. Three men in the shop where am taking on-the-job training under the G.I. Bill have been in jured in the past month. In case of an accident to me. will the VA pay my hospital expenses at a local hospital? A. No. Any disability incurred while in training under the G.I. '3ill does not entitle you to hos pitalization, but you may estab lish eligibility to VA hospitaliza tion because of your war service. BOOKS MATHEWS STORE 'S u r e , Y O U f c E a c a r e f u l to w e r \ > But . . . ! The unexpected does happen “Sound Insurance Is a wise investment.” H a z e l b a k e r Insurance Agency Phone NEW SCHEDULE OF F E E S ANNOUNCED BY VA AND FHA The Veterans Administration and Federal Housing Administra tion have announced new joint regulations to eliminate excessive fees and charges in connection with the construction of housing financed with the aid of govern ment guarantees or insurance un der the G.I. Bill and the National Housing Act. The new regulations apply both to construction loans and the per manent financing of new homes with credit aids provided by G.I. loans guaranteed by the VA, or FHA-insured loans. They will apply only to applications for VA’S reasonable value or for FHA commitments received in VA or FHA offices on or after July 17, 1950. The maximum interest rate on construction money advanced to builders under the schedule is set at 5 per cent. In addition, the lender making the construc tion loan will be permitted to charge up to 2% per cent of the amount of the funds advanced as a service charge to cover costs of supervision, makin0, periodic advances, clearance of liens, and other overhead. Where the lender financing the construction also finances the mortgage loan of the purchaser, no additional service charge in connection with the latter loan is permitted. Where the perma nent loan is made by a lender other than the institution advanc ing the construction loan, a flat fee previously authorized, which may not exceed 1 per cent, will continue to be allowed. In addition to the ¡permissible service charge, the builder also may be required to pay certain other miscellaneous expenses, such as rcording fs and thos paid for appraisals and inspction. Question of the Week Q. Will the VA furnish trans portation when I am transferred from one hospital to another? A..

Such transportation will pot be fur nished by the VA when the trans fer is for the convenience of the patient. Mr. C. W. Frame was a busi ness visitor in town Monday from Glen. M know O N T A N A Mail Was Costly in Early Days By Rex Dale, Bozeman Chronicle Back in 1864 when Montana territory and the little log cabin settlement- that is now Bozeman was just getting underway, forwarding a letter back to one’s folks in the east or south or west was a matter that took months. Furthermore, it required the expenditure of 53 cents for each letter to expedite it in the speediest manner possible. The quickest way to get a letter out of early day Bozeman or Gallatin county was to have it carried to Virginia City or Bannack City in order to connect with the pony express. Frank Dunbar, pioneer of Gallatin City, first county seat of Gallatin, used to horseback in to the Bozeman settlement to inquire of John Bozeman, or W. J. Beall, Joe Wilson or a dozen other pio neers of the.community “who’s going over to Virginia City”? Then he’d leave a dozen letters or so that immigrants in covered wagons corraled at Gallatin City had left with him for transit to the east. Generally, they deposited 53 cents with each letter to cover pony express charges as well as the U. S. letter postage rate. Whenever any Bozeman resident was going over to Virginia City with supplies for the miners they would usually stop at the log cabin City Hotel run by G. W. A. Frazier to inquire if there was any mail to go over. Frazier would then hand the inquirer a package of letters and a sum of money on the basis of 53 cents a letter. At Virginia City or Bannack, the Bozeman man would then step into the Wells-Fargo office and purchase sheets of 50-cent pony express stamps to be affixed to the letters. In such a man ner the letters would reach Salt Lake City in three days where they would connect with the pony express for St. Joseph, Mo., or San Francisco.

How can it reveal the silken, swift-mounting surge of oil-cush ioned take-off—smooth, silky, un broken, as Dynaflow Drive works its magic? Even when you watch a R oad * MASTER settle down to a long steep pull and crest the top going away, how can it tell you what thrill your spirits get from such ability? And what can it say of the lift that’s yours traveling in a beauty that catches all eyes, swivels passing heads, marks you by its very lines as traveling in as fine a car as any man can ask for?
