FOR VETERANS-
Medicol Care Availihli
Through YA Hospitals
THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 1974. PACE
Many men and women who
have served in the Armed
Forces, of the United States
are unaware of their
eligibility for medical care
through the Veterans Ad-
ministration hospital system.
Unfortunately for some, the
inquiry concerning this
eligibility comes only after
they have spent all of their
ready assets for private
hospital care. Every veteran
should acquaint himself with
the benefits to which he may
be entitled, according to
Allen Lowrey, Veterans
Sci v Ice Officer for Sionewaii
County.
Under present laws, a
veteran may be eligible for
admission to a VA hospital if
the period of military service
terminated under conditions
other than dishonorable. This
applies to both men and
women, and to wartime and
peacetime service. Some
veterans may be eligible even
though their discharges were
other than the regular
honorable type.
Eligible for admission to a
Veterans Administration
hospital for treatment of any
condition is the veteran
whose discharge was either

Mrs. Laura Smith, 85,
passed away in Malone
Hoggan Hospital in Big
Spring after a long illness on
Sept. 7, 1974.
Funeral was held in the
First United Methodist
Church Tuesday at 2 p.m.
with the Rev. Elmer Ward,
pastor, officiating. Burial
followed in Aspermont
Cemetery under the direction
of McCoy Funeral Home of
Aspermont.
Mrs. Smith was born Oct. 1,
1888, in Taylor County. She
was a longtime resident of
Aspermont and Hamlin. She
married Ben Smith in
Stonewall Co. in 1904. He
preceded her in death in 1942.
Pallbearers were Frank
Allen, Roy Cooper, Reed
Cooper, Paul Cooper, Lee
Smith and Thomas Smith.
honorable or general under
honorable conditions. If a
person received an un-
dersireable discharge or a
conduct discharge, he may or
may not be eligible for VA
hospital care, depending
upon the circumstances
causing the discharge. In
such instances, a veteran
should apply for medical care
when it is needed, and the VA
will obtain the military
records and determine
whether the discharge is a
bar to benefits. A dis-
honorable discharge is
ffivfln as a midl nf a general
court martial, and will
always serve as a bar to
veterans benefits.
A number of veterans who
served only during a period of
peacetime have in the past
been denied admission to a
VA hospital. Such veterans, if
their service was honorable,
may now be eligible for
hospital care. Public Law 93-
82, effective on Sept. 1, 1973,
placed wartime and
peacetime veterans on the
same basis with reference to
VA hospital care. Any
veteran who is in need of
hospital care should contact
his local Service Officer and
determine whether he is
eligible for treatment in a
Veterans Administration
facility.

retirement is the time when
you need some extra income.
Here's how to get that in-
come, Just exchange yourE
Bonds (in cash value amounts
of $500 or more) for Series 1 i
Bonds. 11 Bonds pay out in-

Treasury check mailed right to

10-year maturity.
Just the thing for retire-

liability on your accumulated
E Bond interest continues to be
deferred. Right up until the II

final maturity (there's an op-
tional 10 year extension
