Committed to Change


Under Section 212 of the econ
omy bill, John, hurt on this side
Of the water, had his gross income
cut to $4,000, while George, injured
in battle, continues to draw his
original $4,000.
Although this provision of the
economy bill applies only to a few
officers, it is significant because at
last congress definitely is commit
teed to a discrimination between
service connected disabilities re-
ceived in action and those that were
not so incurred.
For a number of years Italy has
recognized the principle that a SOL
dier actually ordered into battle is
liable to special dangers that he
would not be subjected to anywhere
else.
Orphans Of italian veterans get
more if their fathers died from
wounds, injury or other infirmity
contracted in the battle zone.
Appointment of the joint congress
sional committee to study the
present veteran program and the
suggestion of reforms was made by
Vice-PreSident Curtis and Speaker
Garner just before adjournment of

In addition to writing new

thorization of the joint committee,
Representative Royal Johnson of
South Dakota, himself a disabled
veteran, offered a resolution for a
radical administrative change in
handling veteran matters.
His bill went in July IA and con-
gress had not time to act upon it
before adjournment, but it will come
up in December.
Johnson would set up civilian
court of appeals, to which veterans
rejected for pensions by the vete-
rams administration could appeal.
Any claimant would have his ex-
penseS paid to Washington and re-
ceive an additional fee.
If the bill passes. all a veteran
would need do to get free trip to
Washington would be to make an
absurd claim, which the veterans
administration would have to re-
ject and then appeal to the new
court for adjudication.
