Vets Organize to Press for Pensions in County
A veterans group in Houston County forms a committee of three ex servicemen and two civilians to plan a public meeting next Wednesday night and draft a constitution. They warn that 200 families will need charity as disability payments end, risking farm costs and continued poverty for disabled veterans. Secretary treasurer T. J. Whatley Jr cites many veterans relying on disability payments to finance farms. The group vows a public information campaign to illustrate the burden on veterans and ensure support, with the next meeting on May 24 open to the public.
