A two day House investigative hearing led by Rep Olin Teague examined abuses in GI Bill training programs in Dallas. Barber school operator A B Heath testified of loans to VA employees that were never repaid to keep schools operating, naming several loan recipients and detailing uncollected funds while VA official William Lenderman defended his oversight role.
