Since VA did not keep a listing of the claims which were disapproved for this reason alone new applications under the new pension law are required before VA can award benefits to those who may now be eligible. Mr. McHugh also pointed out that while remarriage bars a wi dow from receiving a pension, the veteran’s children mal still be eligible in their own right. VA has tried to locate widows and children who may be eligible un- j der the new law as old claims are reviewed in the course of nor mal work, said the VA manager, but when widows remarry they change their names and usually move without leaving forwarding addresses. In some cases VA found that the widow also died and the veteran’s children were living with relatives whose names and addresses were unknown to the VA. Children of deceased World War II or Korean veterans may still be eligible for pension benefits if they are over 18 provided they are attending school or became per manently incapable of self sup port prior to reaching 18 years of age. The VA Regional Office is lo cated at 1801 Assembly Street in Columbia, where widows of World War II and Korean veterans or guardians of the veteran’s child ren may obtain additional infor mation, said Mr. McHugh.

Turner ■ JEWELERS ■ Widows May Get VA Pensions A number of South Carolina widows and children of World War II and Kore: n veterans may be passing up the pension bene fits they are now rightfully en titled to under the new pension law which became effective on July 1, 1960, because they have not applied for benefits, said M. L. McHugh, manager of the Colum bia VA Regional office. . Unaer the old law widows and children were not eligible unless the veteran had a service-connect ed disability at the time of his death. The new law does not have this requirement, said the VA manager. The provision of the old law resulted in many dis- 3rd and 4th on Still Life.
