less the claim stands already rejected from
a legal standpoint.
"Third-In the event that claimant Is
accorded any rating under the act OF June
81, 1890, but is already on the rolls under
the general law, he shall be notified of
the action taken under the act of June u,
1890, in clear and unambiguous terms, and
no certificate shall issue under said act
unless he shall so elect, having been pre-
viously notified by you of the rating ap-
proved for.
ut is evident to those accustomed to
deal with appeals in pension cases that
the main object of great numbers of ap-
pellants is TO obtain specific information
regarding the status of their cases, or to
have a clearer knowledge of the reasons
for action taken by you than is given them
in tie letters of advice sent out upon the
subject from the Pension Bureau. This
point is referred to in the departmental
opinion Of Oct. s, 1900, in the Tolle cast
and it becomes daily more and more ap-
parent to the Department that the num-
Der of appeals would be greatly lessened
if the actions of approval or rejection were
plainly and unambiguously stated on the
brief face, covering all the points at issue
clearly and concisely, and the claimant no
| tilted of sach actions in language and
terms which were unmistakable i'll their
meaning. and which would convey to him
all the information he was entitled to re-
ceive."
The decision holds further that the re-
lection of the act of 1890 claim on the
ground of mo benefit was error for the
additional reason that the evidence shows
that the claimant is in fact entitled to a
higher rate of pension under the act Of
! 1890 than he is receiving under the gen.
eral law
