Since I have depen dents, why cannot I get the $90 a month subsistence that some of my friends got? A. The amount of subsistence paid to a veteran in on-the-job training depend# on the amount of salary he receives. The amount of subsistence, plus the salary re ceived, may not together exceed the salary received by a journey man holding a job comparable to that for which the veteran is train ing. Q. I have tried a number of times to secure a loan to buy a farm under the loan provision of Servicemen’s Readjustment Act. The best terms I can get require the payment of 45 per cent down. Is there any place I can obtain the full amount, as provided in the G.i. Bill? A. VA can only urge lenders to make loans under the very liberal provisions on the Servicemen’s Re adjustment Act. Although VA is willing to guarantee long term ob ligations, there are many lenders who insist on shorter term obliga tions. If you cannot find another lender who is willing to offer more liberal terms, it is suggested you contact the nearest representative of the Farm Security Administra tion which is authorized to make loans up to 40 years duration to eli gible veterans.
