Good Investment For Veterans Is Medical Check One of the best investments a veteran may make in his future welfare is to have a complete medical checkup soon after discharge—even if he was given one by his branch of service at the time of his release from active duty, Ben Liebermann, Orange County Veterans Service officer, recommended today. Since the allments and disabilities a veteran may incur in service don't always turn up at the time of discharge examinations, the record of a medical institution or physician can be invaluable in later years in establishing claims for medical care or disability benefits. Recently discharged veterans and those re-assigned to reserve status should obtain an overall physical examination and full X-rays. At that time the veteran should point but any injuries, illnesses or infections he may have had in service, to help the physician in his examination. Added importance has been given the early establishment of service-connected disabilities by recent legislation which expands the benefits available to Korean veterans in cases of certain ailments that show up within a stated period after discharge. Recent examples are two new laws under which the government assumes that multiple sclerosis or mental psychosis was incurred in active service if the veteran is stricken within two years after discharge.

ALL PROCEDURES BENEFIT OPTIMIST CLUB BUILDING FUND ALL MERCHANDISE DONATED BY LOCO Navy Craft Fired On by Vessel WASHINGTON (UP) — The Navy reported today one of its patrol planes was fired on by a wooden vessel about 50 miles east of the south China port of Swatow. Brief reports received here said the American plane was not hit by some 50 rounds of machine gun fire at a range of about 2000 yards. Swatow is near the southern end of the Formosa strait, which has been patrolled by the Navy since the start of hostilities in Korea. The report described the otherwise unidentified surface craft as a wooden lugger. The Navy also reported one of its attack planes slightly damaged when two red-MIG-15 fighters jumped a Navy flight on the northeast coast of Korea yesterday.

Three Navy planes were reported lost yesterday, one to enemy ground fire and two as a result of operational accidents. Flood Waters Leave Wake of Damage ROVIGO, Italy (UP) — Flood waters which turned the fabulously fertile Po river delta into a ruinous lake drained slowly seaward today after taking more than 100 lives and causing damage estimated as high as $200,000,000. Officials said that unless more rains fall, the worst is over. But Mario Sbrana, city engineer here, soberly observed it would take at least eight months to drain the benefits available to Korean veterans in cases of certain alliances that show up within a stated period after discharge. Recent examples are two new laws under which the government assumes that multiple sclerosis or mental psychosis was incurred in active service if the veteran is stricken within two years after discharge.

ROVIGO, Italy — Flood waters which turned the fabulously fertile Po river delta into a ruinous lake drained slowly seaward today after taking more than 100 lives and causing damage estimated as high as $200,000,000. Officials said that unless more rains fall, the worst is over.

He gave no estimate as to when farmers and villagers could return to their homes. At least 100,000 persons were ferried to Saxety. Many thousands more are believed to have fled without official help and are not registered with relief agencies. The total homeless may run as high as 200,000.

Isolated Rancher Wants Counties of State in Nevada SACRAMENTO (US)—A lonely some Nevada legislator wants California to do something for him. He wants nine northern California counties to secede to Nevada. Assemblyman Don Crawford of Vya, which is all by itself in northwestern Nevada, wrote Secretary of State Frank M. Jordan for information on how to go about it. He thought it might be done through a plebescite of the people living in the long narrow strip of territory between "the present abitrary California-Nevada state line and the summit where the waters divide to run to the Pacific ocean. Crawford figured that line would take in parts of California's Modoc, Lassen, Plumas, Place, Sierra, Alpine, El Dorado, Mono and Nevada counties. He lives near Cedarville, Modoc county. "My ranch is so far isolated from any town in Nevada," he said in his letter, "that most of my contacts with the outside world are wain California border towns."
