veterans and their dependents, coordinating the activities of public
and private facilities concerned with veterans' reemployment,
education, rehabilitation and adjustment to peacetime living.

The Committee may cooperate with all national, state and local governmental
and private agencies in securing services and benefits to which a

Full terms for members shall be four years, but initially two
