Research on new and im-
proved uses for natural gas
has resulted in the expansion
of existing industries and the
movement of new industries
into the area served by United
Gas. Expanding industry
means larger payrolls, more
money in circulation, more
business for everybody.

before they are placed with

VA Questiqns, Answers
Q. I’m planning to switch
schools under the GI Bill, with-
out changing my course. My
new school is located in an-
other part of the country, and
1’11 have to take time off in
order to transfer. Will this in-
terruption be permitted, under
VA regulations?
A. Yes, provided you file an
application for a change of
schools with VA. You must,
however, start your course in
the new school within a rea-
sonable period of time.
Q. May I use a GI loan to
buy residential property con-
taining more than one family
unit? I plan to live in one of
the apartments.
A. Yes, but the total num-
ber of separate units cannot be
more than four, if you are buy-
ing it alone. ,
Q. I’m a World War II vet-
eran, back on active duty. I
expect to get our sometime in
1952. Will I still be able to
take advantage of my GI loan
privilege, based on my World
War II service?
A. Yes. You’ll have plenty
of time to obtain a GI loan,
for the deadline for most vet-
erans does not come until July
25, 1957.
Q. I want to change the
beneficiary of m.v National
Service Life Insurance policy.
How do I go about it?
A. You must notify the VA
district office that handles
your insurance account, prefer-
ably on a form that may be ob-
tained at any VA office. If
you don’t have such a form,
any written notice will do, so
long as you sign it and include
enough information so that
VA can identify your account.
