Veterans Insurance Deadline Dec.31; Checks Due Early
Major deadlines face KU veterans who are being released or discharged from active duty, J. F. Kelley, manager of the St. Louis Veterans Administration Regional office, said today.
"The most important deadline," Mr. Kelley said, "concerns GI insurance and affects veterans who have been released from active duty since Sept. 4, 1956."
Application Deadline Near
Instead of having 120 days in which to apply for a special type of 5-year term noncovertible GI insurance, the newly charged veteran must apply before midnight, Dec. 31, 1956.
This deadline was set by the recently-enacted Servicemen's and Veteran's Survivor Benefits Act.
Veterans who served during the Korean conflict, June 27, 1950 to Jan. 31, 1955, should remember that they have three years from the date of discharge or separation to apply for education and training under the GI bill, Mr. Kelley said.
Further information may be obtained from E. R. Elbel, director of the Veterans Bureau. 116 Strong.

will get their checks before they go home for Christmas vacation, Mr Kelley said today.
Allowance checks are mailed around the 20th of the month, he said, but many schools and colleges begin holiday vacations before Dec. 20. So that veterans won't have to go on vacation without funds, VA is making a special effort to mail checks earlier, Mr. Kelley said.
Whenever possible, he said, VA regional offices will speed up the steps to authorize GI allowance payments for veterans.
Engineering Post Open
Freshman engineering students wishing to be candidates for the position on the engineering council must file petitions with names of 20 freshmen engineering students with Tommy Griffith, Pratt senior and Engineering Council president, before noon Saturday.
Two engineering students were nominated for the freshman position during Engineering Lectures Tuesday. They are Dave Warren, San Francisco, Calif., and Floyd Denman Lee, Hays.
Griffith said the right to petition will give all freshman engineering students equal opportunity to be nominated for the position since not all are enrolled in Engineering Lectures.
The election will be held Tuesday during Engineering Lectures. All engineering students may attend.
