Victory, a WWI Veteran, to Congressman Clem McSpadden regarding the adjustment of his Veterans pension due to income limitations set by the Veterans Administration. Victory expresses concern about being forced into poverty under the current law and urges for the continuation of the $78.75 pension for all qualified Veterans. The document also includes a response from the Veterans Administration adjusting Victory's benefits based on his expected income. Victory is given the option to elect pension under the current law and is advised on how to appeal the decision if he disagrees.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
