Military retirees
eligible for pay
The House recently passed legisla-
tion to expand the number of military
retirees eligible for both retirement and
disability pay, known as concurrent
receipt. This provision was included
in the final bill for the Department of
Defense authorization, according to
the office of Congressman Jerry Moran,
who supported the legislation.
"With Veterans Day just around the
comer, I am pleased that we have fi-
nally made some pro g~ss with con-
current receipt eligibility, Moran said.
The provision will allow an addi-
tional 250,000 military retirees to be
eligible for both their retirement and
disability pay. Under cunrent !aw, re-
tired, disabled veteran' retirenient pay
is deducted, dollar for dollar, from any
compensation:received for a disabil-
ity. The result is that many disabled
military retirees essentially pay for their
own disability benefits from their re-
tirement checks.
"We should not only recognize the
contributions of service men and
women, but remember our responsi-
bility to fulfill our commitments to
veterans and their families," Moran
concluded.
SBA loans available
for disaster victims
Businesses in some counties of
Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska and Okla-
homa can now apply for low interest
Economic Injury Disaster Loans from
the U.S. Small Business Administra-
tion.
These loans are available to help
businesses meet normal operating ex-
penses that cannot be met because of
the effects of a disaster. Various
weatherconditions caused many farm-
ers and ranchers to experience reduced
racemes which may have had an ad-
verse economic effect on businesses
depending on these producers.
Farmers and ranchers are not eli-
gible for this loan program, but may be
el!gible for dis~ter assistance thrc~ugh
omer reoeral agencies.: However, nurs-
ery owners who are vietimsofdrought
disaster can apply.
"Businesses in these counties are
eligible to apply: Cloud, Jewell, Mitch-
