Approximately 17,000 dmabled
veterans and widows of veterans
in Washington who receive month-
ly pension payments are being re-
ninded by the Veterans Adminis-
tration to report their annual in-

risk of having their payments
Stopped.
L H. Hall, manager of the VA
regional office at Seattle, said that
VA is now mailing to all pension
recipienls a tabulating card upon
which the income report may be
made. Pensions cease if the in-
coffie of a single individual ex-
ceeds $1400. or $2700 if the reci-
pient has dependents. Regflations
require payment to be stopped if
the income report is not received
within 30 days.
He wazaed that the tabulating
card will be processed mechanically
when it is returned and that cut-
ting, folding or otherwise mutil-
0tLg it will delay the recording
of the information and risk a cut-
off in payments.
No income questionnaire is sent
to veterans or dependents receiv-
