HINES ASKSPOt
FOR VETERANS AID
Outside Disabilities lncreaS-
ing Pressure, Report
Tells Congress.

Reviewing the gigantic task Of caring
for the World War veterans, Frank T.
Hines, in his annual report as former
director of the Veterans Bureau, made
public today. has asked Congress for a
definition of future policies for giving
relief to veterans who receive disabili-
ties outside of their service.
Gen. Hines, who is now administrator
of veterans affairs, submitted his re-
port as director of the Vterans' Bureau
for the fiscal year ending June 80. The
new director, Col. George E. Ijams. as
sumed charge of the bureau in July.
following the promotion OF Gen. Hines
to be administrator Of veterans affairs.
Although the Government has more
than enough hospital beds for veterans
in iured in service Hines said new appli-
cations for disqualification Of non-service
connected disabilities were bringing a
constantly increasing pressure.
Question Of Policy.
With a potential load of 1000 900
veterans, he said, "it is apparent to
what proportions this may extend if it
is to be the policy to give non-
service cases a mandatory
right to disqualification"
Additional facilities would be required,
he continued, and preliminary studies
indicate future obligation which far
overshedows our whole experience to
date" because CT congressional provision
for disqualification of veterans of all
wars in need of treatment regardless of
the origin of their disabilities"
Hines recommended further develop
ment of veterans employment service,
citing the action of Congress in launch
ing this work in cooperation with the
Department of Labor with $4,000 ap-
preparation. He said facilities have
been established in 18 States and $780,
900 was available for this years work.
Expansion of the bureaus activities
because of the provision for payment Of
disability allowance was predicted.
Civil Life Disabilities.
"This benefit extends to disabilities
incurred in civil life, and it is antic-
ipated its application will develop ="
into one of the bureaus most admiris-
trative undertakings" he said.
Consolidation of governmental relief
activities, as authorized last July, was
depicted as clearing the way for re-
moving many impediments of admins
tration.
The necessity for expanding hospitali-
cation facilities, he said, was shown in
about 10 per cent more applications for
admission. The building program under
way, which calls for 10 new hospitals
and additions to others, was reviewed.
More than 81 900 beds were. avail
able for 10000 veterans disabled in ac-
tion. and approximately 5000 beds will
be added" he said.
Payment of compensation to veterans.
widows, orphans and parents totaled
$4,000, 900, of which $155 100000 went
to 279,539 veterans.
