Disabled Veterans Urged to Form Organization Here In an appeal to Anaheim veterans of World War II who were disabled in service, Dow V. Walker of Newport, Ore., national commander of the Disabled American Veterans, urged that they band together to form a local chapter of the D.A.V. Walker based his estimate on the number of disabled veterans in this community on a per capita average that has been worked out by the D.A.V., which is chartered by congress as the official voice of America's wartime disabled. Veterans of all wars, both men and women, who have been wounded, gassed, or disabled in any degree while serving in the armed forces during time of war, are eligible for membership in the D.A.V. The D.A.V. national commander pointed out to local veterans who suffered disabilities that there are more than 1,211 chapters of the D.V.A. throughout the United States. REASONS OUTLINED “There are five reasons,” he said, “why a disabled veteran should be a member of the Disabled American Veterans. They are: “1—Disabled veterans can be of benefit to each other by discussing problems and handicaps that have been overcome. “2—The D.A.V. offers, free of charge, assistance in adjudicating claims and obtaining government benefits. “3—Through the D.A.V., the disabled veteran helps work for beneficial legislation, both locally and nationally. “4—A chapter of the D.A.V. can be very helpful in developing an employment program for disabled veterans by urging selective William H.

Enlisting on Dec. 9, 1939, he saw much foreign service serving on the USS Colorado, USS Columbia and on duty on the USN supply depot No. 3149.

Representatives of the Tidewater Associated Oil Co. advised Chief of Police Tee Wilder last week that they expect to conduct tests for oil deposits around the edge of town in about two weeks from that time. Such operations may cause preceptive vibrations, they warn. Income Tax for Servicemen’s Wives Wives of servicemen still overseas were warned today by Collector of Internal Revenue Harry C. Westover that they must have notarized power of attorney to sign their husbands' names to 1945 federal income tax returns. Without such power of attorney, no person is permitted to sign a tax return for another. Unfortunately, no exception can be made for members of the armed forces, Westover said. If she actually received $1200, or more, last year, she wife of a serviceman overseas is required to file a return by the regular due date of March 15. She may file her own separate return declaring one-half of the total community income and taking credit for one-half of the total withholdings, or she may file a joint return provided she has the proper power of attorney. Those who file separate returns have the right to change to joint returns when their husbands return from overseas. Cadet Corps for High School Boys Maj. Thomas C. Murphy has arrived in Anaheim from Sacramento to have charge of a cadet corps at Anaheim Union high school.

Walnut Growth In This District Being Abandoned Rapidity with which groves are disappearing from Anaheim area is becoming creasingly apparent.

"2—The D.A.V. offers, free of charge, assistance in adjudicating claims and obtaining government benefits. "3—Through the D.A.V., the disabled veteran helps work for beneficial legislation, both locally and nationally. "4—A chapter of the D.A.V. can be very helpful in developing an employment program for disabled veterans by urging selective placement, on-the-job training, and pointing out that disabled are valuable employees. "5—Through chapter meetings and get-togethers, men who have been disabled have a common interest." DETAILS AVAILABLE Walker said complete information on how to go about forming a local chapter can be obtained by contacting a D.V.A. chapter in a nearby city or writing to National Adjutant Vivian D. Corbly, national D.A.V. headquarters, 1423 E. McMillan street, Cincinnati, Ohio. The D.A.V., Walker said, maintains the largest staff of nationally paid service officers of any veterans' organization. During the last 14 years, the D.A.V. has handled more than 900,000 claims, obtained 160,000 medical examinations, and established disability compensation benefits in excess of $100,000,000. L. A.

He announces that more than 50 students have joined the corps to date. The boys will be equipped with real rifles and will drill one 50-minute period daily. Major Thomas, a veteran of 25 years of regular Army service, has transferred his American Legion membership to the Anaheim post. He has been associated with the California State Guard two years, and served on the Legion board with the boys' state program. NAVY RETIREMENT PAY GUARANTEES SECURITY Investment of $75,000 at a safe rate of interest would be required to equal the retirement pay of a navy man, according to Chief A.W. Beem, officer in charge of the navy recruiting station in this area. The average man is retired from the navy in his middle 30's with an income sufficient to take care of him for the rest of his life, the recruiting officer pointed out. “There is nothing to prevent a retired navy man from getting a job in the trade which the navy has taught him and adding materially to his income,” he added. A navy career is not only educational but guarantees security for the rest of a man's life, the officer declared. Cooling Engineered Form Organization Merle A.
