Any veteran who was born in il if or nia or was a state resident vhen he joined up and served 90 lays before Jan. 1, 1947, is eligible :or the $1000 maximum aid program.
Subsistence allowances under the ’tate aid program will be upped rom $40 to $50 a month in Sep-,ember for most cases. The increase to help the veteran pay for ks and supplies. In addition the ;tate picks up the tuition bill and liandles certain other fees.

Filmwriter Tells Views at Embassy
A campaign was recently started by State Sen. Fred H. Kraft to rid state college faculties of Communists and their supporters. Backed by “many interested and concerned citizens,’ Kraft’s drive is to make sure that present laws on the statute books are enforced in regard to ridding state colleges of any persons who are proven security risks.
He feels that teachers allied with subversive elements can do more harm than government workers in charge of routine business.
“In my opinion there are few * people more completely despicable than those who, charged with the trust and responsibility of educating our youth, betray that charge and use that trust to infect our youngsters with the cancer of Communism, encouraging them to repudiate their God, to ridicule their parents, and to
turn their backs upon American traditions and principles, Kraft said.
“I do not believe that our Constitution compels our citizens to employ in tax-paid positions of trust and honor men whose beliefs the majority of us hold in contempt and horror.
“We are now in a war in Korea—I see no reason to call it anything else. Our boys are suffering and dying in a crusade to free that small land from the despotism of Red tyranny.
“If our boys can staAd with courage against Red bullets, can we at home do less than stand with equal courage against the gibes and jeers and specious criticism of Communists and their sympathizers in our determination to drive these vassals of Moscow from public service.”

‘Arty’ Crowd Hears Conflicting Messages From Leftist Martyr
by Budd Hopps
Two personalities dramatically mounted the stage of the Embassy Auditorium last Friday night and revealed their incredible and conflicting messages.
’ One a fighting liberal in the tradition of John Locke, Jean Jacques Rousseau, and Tom Paine, who charged that he and nine other Americans had been denied their rights as guaranteed in the first amendment to the Constitution.
The other—a bitter man who would preserve the freedom of expression pf the artist and writer in the U.S. by blindly following the tortuous foreign policy dictates of a country which denies all freedcm to its artists and writers.
Both personalities were part of the same man—dynamic John Howard Lawson, member of the "Hollywood 10,” playwright, and author of such screenplays as “Algiers, ’ “Action in the North Atlantic," and “Sahara.”
The occasion—a special meeting of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Council of the Arts, Sciences, and Professions, held as a welcome home rally for Lawson, who recently finished a 10 months sentence in the federal penitentiary.
On entering the inner lobby there were unmistabable. signs of the political intensity of the crowd. Brisk sales of left-wing pamphlets and books. An almost-full house 30 minutes before the program.
Most of those in the audience were “arty-looking” individuals between 20 and 50 of the type you might run into at a foreign movie theater on Wilshire Boule-<Continued on Page 4)
