![["Mrs. Vergie A. Garner wrote to Congressman James R. Jones expressing her concern about the extension of GI educational benefits for veterans. She felt that the extension was unfair to those who had already made plans based on the original expiration date. She believed that the extension should have been shorter to give dedicated veterans a chance to succeed in education. Congressman Jones acknowledged her letter and expressed regret that full benefits were not provided sooner."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Legislative%20Series,%201968-1986/CAC_CC_109_7_10_1_0000-Veterans%20Affairs%20-%20Disability%20Compensation,%201973-1974/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_7_10_2_0049_thumbnail.jpg "Mrs. Garner expressed concern about unfair GI benefit extension to Congressman Jones.")

![["The document from Congressman James R. Jones acknowledges the improvements in veterans' benefits proposed in legislation H.R. 12628 and expresses support for the legislation, which includes a 23% increase in pension benefits and a nine-month extension for education benefits. The document also mentions that the Conference Report on the legislation has not yet been submitted to Congress but is expected to be acted on before the end of the session. In response, Phillip Shorter, the Director of the Office of Veterans Affairs at Oklahoma City Southwestern College, expresses disappointment in the failure of the House to approve the legislation and urges Congressman Jones to use his influence to support the original Conference Report on H.R. 12628. Shorter argues that the proposed benefits are justified due to inflation and rising education costs, and emphasizes the importance of providing additional assistance to veterans."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Legislative%20Series,%201968-1986/CAC_CC_109_7_10_1_0000-Veterans%20Affairs%20-%20Disability%20Compensation,%201973-1974/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_7_10_2_0051_thumbnail.jpg "Congressman supports legislation for increased veterans' benefits, disappointment in failure.")

The writer requests support for amendments to the bill to include vocational and graduate students, highlighting the importance of equal benefits for all veterans. The writer also shares personal experiences as a veteran and student, advocating for better educational benefits for graduate students.

![["James McCue inquired about the newly-passed Veteran's Benefits bill, specifically the nine-month extension for undergraduate work only. Congressman James R. Jones acknowledges the inquiry and explains that while he supported an across-the-board increase for both undergraduate and graduate education, the compromise bill was necessary to avoid a potential veto from President Ford. Jones emphasizes the importance of passing a bill that could be signed into law to benefit veterans. McCue's interest in the rationale for excluding graduate work from the extension is noted for further discussion."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Legislative%20Series,%201968-1986/CAC_CC_109_7_10_1_0000-Veterans%20Affairs%20-%20Disability%20Compensation,%201973-1974/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_7_10_2_0054_thumbnail.jpg "McCue asks about Veteran's Benefits bill, Jones explains compromise bill.")
