CAN DA'S VETERANS 744 Positiliwo OfteMmities• An advertisement explaining to the people of Canada the re-establishment credit avail- able to men and women of the Armed Forces. The ss„„,blishisest eseeeye. AN EXPLANATION OF THE GRANT In planning the return to civitan life of men and women in the arnica forces, Canada's parliament realized that assistance in re-establishmetit must cover a wide variety of fields. For many—particularly younger members of the forces—the best method of effecting permanent reestablishment will be through training or through an opportunity to continue an interrupted education. Others can be assisted through land settlementither on full time farms or on small holdings operated with some regular form of employment. In many cases a combination of these two things—training and land settlement—will be the solution. Legislation for this type of re-establishment was provided early in the war. any district office of the department. Application for the war service gratuity is made to the branch of the armed forces with which the veteran served and forms may be secured at any armed forces depot or at any office of the Department of Veterans Affairs. STUDY ALL MEASURES BEFORE APPLYING It is important that every veteran shall have made a definite decision as to future plans before applying for the reestablishment credit. Payment of the re-establishment credit debars the veteran from educational and training grants and benefits under the Veterans' Land Act, since on application for the credit the veteran elects not to take advantage of these other benefits. Any benefits under the Veterans' Land Act and payments to, or on behalf a the veteran for training or continuation of education already granted are charged against the credit. Do not apply for your re-establishment credit until you have studied all other rehabilitation measures. Advice of department officials is available to assist you. PURPOSES FOR WHICH CREDIT MAY BE USED Grant of the credit may be authorized for the following purposess (a) To assist in home owning; (b) To assist in building a home; (c) To assist in home repairing at modernization; (d) To buy household equipment and furniture; • (e) To buy tools, instruments, etc,, for trade, profession, or business; (f) To provide working capital for profession or business; (g) To buy a business; (h) To pay premiums on Dominion of Canada. insurance:. (i) To buy special equipment requited for educational or vocational training. In the case of (a), (b), (d) and (g) above, the veteran must put up one dollar for every two dollars used from the reestablishment credit. If experienct shows a broadening of these purposea is needed. provision has been made for it. ANOTHER LARGE GROUP There is, however. another very large group who do not need training and who are not suited for land settlement as provided under the Veterans' Land Act After long months or years in uniform, these veterans will need assistance also. There will be those who normally would have owned their own homes had it not been for their service.. There will be those who own homes but who have 6een unable to carry out needed repairs and alterations. There will, be veterans Who sold businesses to enlist and who want to resume them, and others who are fitted for 2. business of their own but who need assistance in financing. The Reestablishment Credit is designed for this latter group, and primarily is an alternative to training and land settlement benefits. PAID UNDER WAR SERVICE GRANTS ACT The Re-establishment Credit is made available under the same Act of Parliament which provides War Service. Gratuities. It is not a loan but an outright grant, paid to an eligible veteran to aid in reestablishment if the veteran decides not to use land settlement or training benefits. It may be used in Canada only at any time in the ten years following discharge for certain specified purposes as outlined in this advertisement. The grant is called a "credit" because it is at amount carried on the ledger to the credit of the veteran for ten years until used by him for a reestablishment purpose. HOW TO APPLY FOR RE-ESTABLISHMENT CREDIT The re-establishment credit is an amount equal to the basic War Service Gratuity—that is $7.50 for each 30 days' service in the Western Hemisphere and $15.00 for each 30 days' service overseas. The amount is computed by the branch of the armed forces with which the veteran served, and for that reason application firat must be made for the War Service Gratuity. When a statement showing the amount of the basic gratuity has been received by tht veteran, application for the re-establishment credit may be made to the Depart. went of Veterans .Affairs on a form which may he secured from FOR COMPLETB INFOIMATION WRITE TO THE NEAREST OFFICE OF THE te.
