‘Service assisted the veterans,
their dependants. or their sur.
vivors in this area to recive $604,-
058.74 in benefits from the Vet

it was announced this week by
W. T, Morgan, local office mana
ger,
~ The Blakely Field Office of
the Georgia Department of Vet
erans Service serves Early, Cal
houn, Clay, Miller and Seminole
counties,
This money was paid to the
veterans or his survivors in the
form of death claims, compensa
tion, pensions, education bene
fits, or GI insurance claims in
recognition of the veteran’s war
time service to his nation at
considerable personal sacrifice
to his own economic progress or
his physical health,
By their very nature, these
sums flow immediately into the
local economy in the form of
purchases at local retail stores,
thereby creating local johs, sup
porting local churches and
schools. and even paying local
taxes.
State wide the Department of
Veterans Service assisted Geor
gia veterans or their families in
securing some $132 million in
benefits from the VA in 1962. ‘
