Sentiment Swinging
To Increase in Aid
For Service Families
Es the Associated Press

tS me AsSOCldle0 Press.
In a sudden reversal of senti-
ment, members Of the House
Military Affairs Committee took
firm stand today for sharp in
creases in allowances and allot-
ments for dependents of service
men.
A subcommittee polishing up
legislation to increase present bene-
fits by approximately 10 per cent
reported an unofficial poll indicated
virtual unanimous accord for scale
of $40 to s75 monthly for wife
with one child, with $40 extra for
each additional child.
A Senate bill passed last July
would provide S68 for a wife and
one child and sll for each addi-
tional child, and when House hear
ings began week ago Chairman
May indicated that was acceptable
to his colleagues.
Subcommittee members now re-
port, however. that the hearings
have convinced them the Senate
figures are inadequate and do not
reflect increased costs of living.
To bolster their case for pre-
sentatlon to the House proba bly,
early next week. they called on the
Bureau of Labor Statistics today for
figures showing living costs in vari-
Gus parts of the country.
The House group was virtually
agreed that there should be no in
crease in the current payment of
$50 monthly to a wife alone, and
that there should be no additional
deductions from the paycheck of the
SerViceman, the amount remaining
at so monthly toward the total
payment to wives and children.
Not finally agreed on was whether
the payment for the first child
should be $50 or S25, instead OF the
Senate proposed slS and the pres
ent Sl2. The present payment for
additional children is $40 and the
Senate has proposed Sll. a figure
