IN MEMORY OF W. D. PATTON We the members of the Pastors and Laymens Conference of the Sand Mt. Baptist Association, take this means of expressing our sympathy to the bereaved loved ones and friends of Dr. W. D. Patton. We also wish to stete that the Conference has lost one of its most loyal members, and in every meeting we will realize more and more what a stand-by Bro. Patton was. Dr. Patton was never too busy to leave his work in order to only has the Pastor's and Lay¬ men’s Conference lost a friend and Brother , but everyone that is interested in the Fundamental and Pre-Millinnialist Doctrine, has also losta man that was willing and able to contend for THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS. Even though Dr. Patton never took so much part in public discussions as a leader, we feel sure that when Christ comes to reign and reward that Dr. Patton will receive a reward unsurpassed, as he filled his position and place thoroughly and with unsurpassed humility. What has been said about Dr. Patton could as well be said about Bro. J. Tatum who passed on last spring. We know that both of these brethern are able to enjoy in spirit, at this time the blessedness of the presence of Christ who died for them. Paul said that it was far better for him to depart and be with the Lord. (Phil: 1:23) As we carry on in this world for Christ let us pray that God will ever be near those who are left behind.

THE DADE .COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA ---- -1_ y I-.: - SERVICE TO VETERANS Home Service Home Service became familiar to millions of servicemen and their families during the war years. They looked to their lo¬ cal Red Cross chapter for help in obtaining emergency finan¬ cial help, counseling on family problems, help with communica¬ tions between seriveemen and their families, or information on government benefits affecting servicemen and their families. This assistance continues to be extended to all GIs. But with demobilization, new needs devel¬ oped. Millions of men streamed back to their home communities to begin the often trying transi¬ tion from soldier to citizen Many of them needed help. This is particularly true of dis¬ abled veterans. For these men Red Cross chapters provide fi¬ nancial assistance, on the basis of need, as well as for depends ents of deceased veterans, while claims for disability and death benefits are pending. Home Service workers are also prepared to help veterans file disability claims with the govern¬ ment. If a veteran designates the Red Cross as his representa¬ tive in prosecuting his claim, Home Service can provide fur¬ ther aid by enlisting the help of Red Cross field directors in Vet¬ erans Administration offices- Sometimes veterans require as¬ sistance in solving special prob¬ lems. Home Service workers can put veterans in touch with the proper agencies for such aid, for they know the resources of the community and the many serv¬ ices available to veterans. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1946, over a half million, death, disability, and insurance claims were filed for veterans through Red Cross chapters. In this same period over 160,000 vet- erans and their dependents were given financial help amounting to approximately $3,500,000. Claims Service The importance of the Red Cross Claims Service program can can be be guaged guaged by by the the following fQllowmg fact: one out of every four ve t- erans of World War II has filed a disability claim with the gov- ernm ent. Faced with an increasing de¬ mand for this specialized serv¬ ice, the Red Cross has mobilized its resources to aid disabled vet¬ erans and dependents of deceas¬ ed veterans with their claims for compensation, pensions, and other government benefits. How does the program oper¬ ate? For many veterans initial aid in filing claims for benefits begins in camps and hospitals, where Red Cross field directors assist men being discharged. This same service in preparing disability claims is also provided foi veterans and their depend¬ ents by Home Service workers in Red Cross chapters. These work¬ ers advise veterans and assist them in procuring evidence and documents to support their claims- This is only a part of a big job. Decisions and instructions from the Veterans Administra¬ tion must be interpreted; evi¬ dence for claims must be gath¬ ered and assessed. For this work a Red Cross field director is lo¬ cated in every VA regional of¬ fice. These men have access to VA records and are able to ad¬ vise chap>ter Home Service work¬ ers on the type of evidence need¬ ed and keep them informed on the progress of each case- With power of attorney given to the Red Cross by the veteran, field directors appear before the Veterans Administration rating board—and if necessary the Board of Veterans Appeals—to represent the veteran in the pre¬ sentation of his claim. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1946, about 1,700,000 vet¬ erans were assisted at the time of separation by Red Cross field directors in filing government disability claims. In this same period approximately 30,000 vet¬ erans a month gave the Red) Cross power of attorney for the purpose of prosecuting their cIaims .
