in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Congress can give the Veterans Canteen Service money for furniture, supplies, salaries, and other costs of running its canteens and warehouses. That money, plus everything the canteens earn, becomes a revolving fund that pays for the Service.

This section lets Congress appropriate money, whenever needed, to set up, run, and maintain the Service. The money can pay for: (1) furniture, furnishings, fixtures, and equipment for canteens, warehouses, and storage depots; (2) merchandise and supply stock for the canteens, plus backup stock in warehouses; (3) salaries, wages, and expenses for all employees; (4) administrative and operating expenses; and (5) enough working capital for each canteen and for the Service overall. Whatever money Congress appropriates this way, plus all the income the canteens earn, becomes a revolving fund — meaning it gets reused to keep carrying out this chapter's purposes, rather than being spent once and gone.
