Bill education checks due 219,279 veterans were being processed at the Department of Treasury disbursing office in Kansas City, Missouri, within minutes after the President signed the $15-billion second supplemental bill. This was reported this week by Richard L. Roudebush, Airman selected for training Airman Randall L. Freeman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Darold L. Freeman, Sheiton, has been selected for technical training in the U. S. Air Force aircraft maintenance field at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas. The airman recently completed basic training at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, where he studied the Air Force mission, organization and customs and received special instruction in human relations. Airman Freeman attended Shelton High School. ins plan administrator of Veterans Affairs, who said VA had been assured by Treasury Department officials that they would do everything possible to process the checks and place them in the mail at the earliest possible moment. The payment of G.I. Bill education checks had been halted since June 1 when funds in VA's education and training accounts were depleted. The VA, Roudebush said, had continued completing all of the paperwork processing for each of the delayed payment cycles just as though the checks were going to be paid on schedule. As a result, he added, VA processing was already done when the President signed the bill into law and veterans were thus assured of no administrative delay in the VA. In addition, a VA courier had flown the completed payment tapes from the agency's computer center at Hines, Illinois, to Kansas City for immediate delivery to the treasury office as soon as the President approved the legislation. A total of $62,839,000 is represented in the 219,279 checks now being processed in Kansas City. The sum includes $45.7 million due 158,686 veterans for delayed payment tapes that normally would have gone to treasury on June 2, June 6, and June 9. Another $17,162,000 for an additional 60,593 veterans was included in the tape delivery for the regular VA pay cycle due at treasury on June 13. With the supplemental money now available, Roudebush said, additional VA payment tapes due at treasury on June 16, 20, June 25 and June 27 will be delivered promptly on the due dates. The vast majority of G.I. Bill checks due veteran-trainees were paid on schedule June 1 before VA ran out of money. These June 1 checks, totaling some $222 million, were sent to more than 900,000 trainees. Every man must be Virtuous and vicious every man must be, Few in th' extreme, but all in the degree.
