VA Starts Check Of Local Schools

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Schools in Massachusetts and New York will be among those investigated by a special House Committee which is probing the dispensation of funds in the G.I. Education program, it was revealed yesterday.

Starting almost at once, six trained investigators will be sent to all types of schools giving G.I. training. The "spot checks" will serve as the official response to the VA's report to congress last winter in which "fraudulent practices on the part of institutions" were indicated.
