Tribute paid
to G. I. Bill
Noting that this week marks
the 25th anniversary of the fam
ed World War II G. I Bill,
Donald E. Johnson, Administra
tor of Veterans Affairs, paid
this tribute to the pioneering
legislation:
“Only 16 days after General
Eisenhower gave his historic or
der which launched the invas
ion of Europe, the now famous
World War II G. I. Bill became
law.
“Visionary as they were, it
is doubtful that the framers of
one of the most enlightened
laws ever enacted by any gov
ernment could have known on
June 22, 1944, when the G. I.
Bill was signed, how much this
revolutionary concept in veter
an benefits would contribute to
the welfare of millions of vet
erans and to the well being of
our nation.
“During the past quarter of
a century, more than 11 million
veterans have received part or
all of their adult education and
training under the three G. I.
Bills enacted for World War II,
Korean Conflict, and Vietnam
Era veterans.
“Our national economy has
been bolstered by nearly $75
billion through the 7.4 million
home, business, and farm loans
made under these G. I. Bills.
“Some economists have esti
mated that the nation’s $21 bil
lion G. I. Bill investment in
America’s veterans will be re
covered many times over in
the added taxes which these vet
erans pay on the increased earn
ings made possible by the high
er education and new or im
proved skills acquired under the
G. I. Bill.
“This bonus to America is
gratifying.
“But on this 25th Anniversary
of the G. I. Bill, let us not
lose sight of the real purpose
and the greatest reward of this
landmark program.
lanta with an A. B. degree and
is now attending Emory Univ
ersity, where she will be a can
didate for the Master of Lib-
rarianship degree in August.
The bridegroom-elect is employ
ed by General Motors Corpora
tion in Atlanta.
No formal invitations are be
ing sent in Newberry; friends
and relatives of the couple are
invited to attend the ceremony
and the reception.
“It had but one main object
ive: to help the returning war
veteran help himself to become
as responsible a citizen as he
had been a serviceman.
“This objective of the World
War II and Korean G. I. Bills
has been attained because mil
lions of veterans of these wars
have used the benefits of these
programs so wisely and so well.
“We are proud of the exist
ing programs available to our
present day veterans, but we
must ever seek ways in which
these programs can be improv
ed and made available to the
largest possible number of Viet
nam veterans.
“We must convince these vet
erans, particularly the educa
tionally disadvantaged, that it
is altogether right that they use
their G. I. Bill benefits to serve
their own best interests.
“Like the veterans of World
War II and Korea, they subor
dinated their personal welfare
for months and years to the
compelling task of defending
freedom against those who
would deny and destroy it.
“By their service and sacri
fice, America’s veterans have
earned the G. I. Bill educa
tion, training, and loan benefits
a grateful nation has provided
them.
“They have also vindicated
the faith of those who believed
that they would become serious,
capable students if given the
chance; who were certain that
returning war veterans wanted
to experience the pride and the
incentive of being responsible
home owners; who had no doubt
that the qualities of courage,
determination, and dependabil
ity, which made them the world’
finest servicemen, would insure
their effective use of the G. I.
Bill.
“To commemorate the 25th
Anniversary of the G..I. Bill is
to celebrate the great victory
every veteran who used this
far-sighted benefit has won for
himself, his family, his com
munity, and his country.
“For the G. I. Bill has helped
him to become an even more
self-confident, self supporting,
self-respecting citizen.
“And surely this is victory
enough for any man.’’

Quarantine on
Hog Movement
Effective midnight Saturday,
June 21, no feeder pigs or any
swine other than for slaughter
may be moved from a farm
unless inspected by an inspector
from the Clemson Livestock
Poultry Health Department.
There has been a change in
the length of time that no hogs,
except those going to slaughter,
will be allowed to move.
The original effective date
of the quarantine on hog move
ment which became effective on
June 21 was to remain in ef
fect until July 7. This time has
now been changed to at least
30 days and could be longer.
During these days only those
hogs going for immediate
slaughter will be allowed to
move in South Carolina.
The increased time is neces
sary to allow auction markets
to get ready for the feeder pig
sales, train inspectors, and to
the fact that there has been ap
proximately 30 days between
the time an infected pig goes
to market, located, and traced
back to the original farm.
Slaughter hogs may continue
to move through their regular
channels to market .
Auction markets will not be
allowed to sell feeder pigs on
their regular sales day. They
may set up a separate day to
sell feeder swine only, if they
so desire. If they do decide to
hold a special feeder swine
sale, the sales barn will have
to be concreted and the pigs
will have to be inspected on
the farm prior to the sale.
Farmers wanting to sell in the
special sales will have to notify
the auction market owners long
enough in advance so that the
pigs can be inspected on the
farm within 5 to 7 days of sale
by the inspector from the Live
stock Poultry Health Depart
ment.
Feeder pigs moving direct
from farm to farm will also
have to be inspected before they
can be moved. The responsibil
ity for getting these pigs in
spected will be on the man pro
ducing them.
The inspectors will issue per
mits to the producers for the
number of pigs he wants to sell.
These permits must go with the
pigs as no pigs will be accepted
at the sales bam without them.
All swine bought (feeder or
purebred) will be quarantined
to the farm of purchase for 30
days.
Purebred swine will be cover
ed by the quarantine regulations
and will have to have permits
to move.
Additional information on the
procedures and who the inspect
ors are will be sent to you as
we get it.
