Recess of Congress
The Congress last week COM
pleted all pending legislative
business and agreed to a recess
of some five weeks in order to
allow the members who are del
egates to attend the National
Democratic and Republican con-
ventions. Much committee work
will 60 on even though Congress
is in recess. We have made ar
rangements for some hearings by
a number of subcommittee OF
the House Postwar Committee
in various sections of the coun-
try. This whole subject of recon
version of our wartime economy
back to a peacetime economy is .
most complex and complicated
problem. 1t demands much time
and serious consideration.
In line with our usual custom
during the recess of Congress, we
shall discontinue our column dur
ing that period and resume il
when we return to Washington
when Congress reconvenes.

Aid TO Veterans

Last week the President signed
the so-called G. I. Bill of Rights,
which the House and Senate had
passed by an overwhelming ma
iority. This legislation, which
was sponsored by the American
Legion, establishes a broad post
war veterans aid program, which
inclHdes employment service, un-
employment compensation, loans
for businesses, homes and farms,
educational subsidies, and hospi-
talization. The program, which
covers women in the military ser
vice as well as men, is to be ad-
ministered by the Veterans Ad-
ministration
This law contains the follow
ing provisions, designed to give
to our men and women in ser
vice benefits TO assist them in
becoming rehabilitated in civilian
life:
l. Grants unemployment COM
pensation of $50 a week for up
to So weeks to veterans who are
out of job during the first two
years after being discharged from
the service.
2. Set up job replacement bu-
reau, under the United States
Employment Service to help vet
erans find employment
g. Provides any necessary hos
pitalization through the Veterans
Administration
4. Offers a years schooling
and in some cases a complete ed
ucation TO veterans who entered
the service before they were 25
years of age. The Government
would pay $500 for the years tut
tion, laboratory fees, books, anu
similar expenses; and $50,
month for subsistence, plus $2G
for dependents.
5. Guarantees so percent o.
private loans, al 4 percent inter
est. up to maximum of $4,000
for veterans wishing to Sc
themselves up in business, or tC
buy farms or homes.
Provision was made in the Law
thai any cash benefits received
by veterans are to be deducted
from any bonus that may be vot
ed them after the war While
it is impossible accurately to es
innate the cos. of the program, /
is thought that it will probably
be somewhere in the neighbor
hood of between $4,000. 100000 tC
