![["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.
