How the Money Goes

The Veterans Administration last week added up its postwar payments to 15,200,000 World War II veterans, their heirs and dependents. The total: a skyscraping $20,975,947,214. Biggest expenditure--more than $7 billion--went for education under the G.I. bill. Pensions or compensation cost $4,502,364,093; disability and death claims, $3,694,661,437; and the "52-20" program of unemployment benefits, $3,712,397,702.
