Plan for paying bonus completed
Washington outlines a veteran bonus payout process starting with an application to the Veterans Administration. After approval, the Treasury issues bonds and a check, sent via Federal Reserve to the veteran via registered mail. Bonds may be cashed at designated paying centers, with 3 percent interest until 1945 if kept, or cashed earlier with no interest after 1945.

Highway funds further delayed by court dispute over Georgia treasurer
The Atlanta Journal reports federal officials will not release about 17 million dollars of Georgia highway funds held up after Gov. Eugene Talmadge suspended George B. Hamilton and named J. B. Vaniel as state treasurer. The decision rests with the Georgia Supreme Court as to who is legally entitled to receive the funds. Thomas H. MacDonald of the Bureau of Public Roads says funds must go to an official authorized by law to receive them, blaming Georgia officials for the delay.
