THE TIMESAPVOCATE, EXETER, ONTARIO* THURSDAY MORNIN(, SEPTEMBER 15 196S
Two War Veto:6ns tfl This. District
First To Complete VLA Agreement •
(Robert Jeffrey, of E.R..1
Beneall, and iNrs. DIse Hook-
ey, neter, are the first two
veterans of World War U to
fulfil all terms of the 1 -re
Veteran'e Lead Act coatraot
Western Qatari!). Tbe [two. Were
featured in a recent etory
''he Toronto Star, written by
Alex IlentlerSOn, Which, .is re-
produced here in lull.)
Bob Jeffrey, a World War IX
army veteran who chose in 1945 te
seek rehabilitation on the land,
litte proved to the Canadian govere.,
ment he's a good borrower and a
successful farmer,
Willis Fun Title
The proof is M the ‘4eonditional
grant" eertificate he received this
week from the western Ontario et -
nee of the Veteraba' Land act,
which, gives him full title to every
heed of livestock and every unit
of equipment on the 100 -acre farm
VLA bought for him after his dis-
charge from the Royal Canadian
Engineers.
In effect, by adhering faithfully
to a conditional 10 -year contract
with VLA, which required personal
operation of the farm and main-
tenance of regular repaymente on
a $4,800 loan, used in the purchase
of land and building s, he has
"worked off" a $1,200 grant advan-
Ced at the outset to buy stock and
equipment. And as an added bonus
for upholding his end of the bar-
gain, he will now have 231 per cent
of his loan wiped off. He already
put down a 10 per cent, initial pay-
ment, leaving just $2,295 to pay
back over a 15 -year amortization
period.
If he decided to sell his land for
st profit the conditional grant cer-
tificate permits him to do so; pro-
viding he retires the $2,295 balance
of his loan.
RITA to Fulfil
Jeffrey is the first VLA -assisted
fernier in. western Ontario to ful-
fil all terms of the 10 -year perfor-
mance contract, but scores of
others have only .one or two more
payments to make before they too
can enjoy the status of a private
land o.wner.
While it's been 10 years since
the Veterans' Land act became
functional, officials estimate the
rate of settling veterans will reach
a new high in 1955, brought about
by increasing the loan to smab
holders to $8,100 and $10,500 for

The story or this veteraife re-
ambilitetion, achieved through hatrel
work and careful budgeting can be
multiplied 11,000 times in Western
410ritario, for that's "'..kiew many
ec-
aen'ice people from Niagara .Falls
to Windsor and the northern tip
of the Bruce peninsula, -have taken
advantage of VIA assistance for
Segall holdings (house and lot),
farms and fishing businesses Scope
of VLA assistance in this district
would best be illustrated by Placing
all the small „holdings side by side;
the result in g population would
equal the number of people reeid-
Mg in Woodsteck.
If the farms- were joined to form
a .composite tract, their total area -
would equal one of the average
counties in the province. •
Cheap Living Cost
It cost Jeffrey less than $16 a
month, ,during the past 10. yeas, to.
live in e..large, comfortable feria
home and to work as his own boss.
During this period he has built up
.8 herd of 40. Bolotein cattle,worth
more than M000. Be has 60 hogs
that he could market for szoo.
And his chickens are worth about
$090. The farm, itself, he estimateS,
is worth roughly $16,000, but it's
riot for sale.
In fact, the 32 -year old tanner
le seriously considering borrowing
ocidittehal $3,000 loan trotn VL

over 25 years, tor prodeetivIty ex-
panttion, such as more livestock,
general improvements and an We*
gation system. The act was amend-
ed in the 1$53-0e session of Per11a4
Ment to make this added Mist-
ence passible,
At about the same time Jeffrey
app/led for VIA assistance to est-
ablish a farm, a veteran of the op-
posite sex and a different branch
of the service, Mrs. Elsie gookeY
Was granted a $3,500 loan to buy
and equip a modest brick home on
the n 0 r t h side of town,. Mrs,
aookey, who is sO, served in the
women's division of the liCAF. She
held the rank 0 Leading Mr -
woman and served successively at
Manning depot, Guelph, Summer-
side,- P.4.1, and finally Centralia.
Prior to that she served as a ser.
geant-inajer In the women's volun-
teer corps of the Canadian Army
at Xoetreal. She is believed to be
the first woman veteran to apply
for 1714 assistance under the smell
holdings settlement scheme.
Like Jeffrey, Mrs. Bookey re-
ceived her conditional grant cer-
tificate in the mad this week, and
this is what it means to her: The
$400 advance she received for gar-
den tools and household equipment,
automatically becomes a grant. The,
overall loan included $2,000 for pur-
chase of the house, plus $1,500 for
joWroVernents. She has been re-
paying -at a rate slightlY under $24

In August, 054, only 31/2 years after ground was
broken, :the Kitimat smelter commenced production
of aluminum with an annual capacity of 91,500 tons.
Almost immediately a 60,000 -tort extension was
started. And the spring of 1955 the decision was
made ,td proceed with a. flexible program to add a
etirther 180,1000 tons to ingot eapacity.
... A progressive increase to 31,500 tons, mote
thart three times the size of the original installation,
and well on the way to our ultimate Kitimat goal of
550,000 tons a year.

"This continuing expansion of Kitimat in succes-

Nathaniel V, Davis, "should, we believe, help to
keep pace with the growing freeyorld demand for
aluminum and particularly the demand our
