Georgia Veterans Service Director Pete Wheeler said the more than 542-million dollars represents a 16 per cent increase over the 1971 total. He said, “These benefits and services from the Veterans Administration were provided veterans, their dependents and survivors in recognition of the veterans’ periods of service to their country.” The VA benefits came in the form of compensation, pensions, insurance, burial allowances, educational pro visions, automobile grants, loans and medical services. Wheeler said that many people do not realize that the effects of a war do not end with the firing of the last shot.

He said, “Georgia has about a quarter million World War II veterans averaging about 50 years in age, the point in life when disabilities and age just natur ally tend to increase the need for services.” Emphasizing the need for improved facilities to care for veterans, Wheeler said, “Veterans are returning home to Georgia at the rate of approximately 2,000 every month.

Also, when he gels high his eyes get very red. especially from marijuana, and his pupils get very small. “People can tell from looking al you if you have been smoking pot.

MANAGING MONEY To get the most out of your money today, you must be as skillful as a banker, advise specialists at the Cooperative Extension Service. You can sharpen money managing skills by polishing up on your grade school math and making price comparisons. Ask yourself how many “necessities” are actually luxuries.
