Senate Gets House Bill
Boosting Ampufees' Pay

The Senate today received bill
which the House passed late yester-
day increasing compensation rates
for veterans with amputations and
other disabilities.
The bill, introduced by Chairman
Rankin Of the House Veterans Com
mittee, carries an increase of $3t
a month for the loss of foot or g
hand or blindness in one eye. Bene.
fits for the more severe types o.
amputation, especially those il
which artificial limbs are not feaS.
ible, and for blinded service mer
are raised.
In aggravated cases, where con-
slant attendance is required, the
new rates of pension range from
5000 to $235 a month. The Veterans
Administration has discretion to in.
crease these in some instances, but
in no event above $500.
Representative Rogers, Repub.
lican, of Massachusetts,, a member
of the Veterans Committee, told the
House she had hoped for greater
benefits for amputees and an i'm.
provement in their appliances. She
indicated that she would press fol
additional measures after the sum.

Flag Of Liberation
To Hang in Capitol
After Flying in Tokyo

A flag of liberation Is destined
to hang in the Capitol after flying
over the conquered cities Of Rome,
Berlin and Tokyo.
This ensign, It was revealed yes
terday by Maury Maverick, former
Texas Representative and now head
OF the Smaller War Plants Corp,
was the one which was raised over
Berlin yesterday. 1t already has
flown over Rome. And the next stop
on its historic journey will be Tokyo
After 1t has served as an emblem
of triumph over three Axis capitals,
according to Mr.. Maverick, the flag,
which foated over the Capitol on
December 8, when the United States
declared war on Tokyo, and Decen1-
ber IL, when hostilities were opened
with Germany and Italy, will be re-
turned there as museum piece.
Tells Flags History.
Mr.. Maverick yesterday told this
story OF the flag and the historic
part it is playing in the present
war:
when the japanese struck Pearl
Harbor, I was in hospital with a
heart attack.
IT called my Office and told them
to see Dave Lynn (architect Of the
CapitoD early the next morning
and remind him that I had re-
served a place for the war flag
more than year ago. I knew war
was coming.
My people took the flag up to
the Capitol, saw it raised, and
stayed there on the roof all day
1t was there when we declared war
on Japan December 8. 1t was back
up there again on December II
when we declared war on Germany
and Italy. I have five affldavitS tc
this.
Then 7 wrote President Roose-
velt a letter. 1 told him I would
like to see it eventually hang in the
Capitol dome as a flag of liberia
tion,' as a symbol of liberty for
our friends and respect from our
enemies. I asked him to take it
on these trips he made.
THE President wrote back, II like
your idea of the flag of liberation.
saw him, I think it was at his
last church service, and he told me
This flag idea is working out all
right and / want it to go on
President Truman is the man
with just the manhood and CUTS to
see that it does go on.
'Mr. Roosevelt took 1t to Algiers
and Casablanca and other places.
1t few over Rome. When it flies
over Tokyo that1l be wonderful
Mr.. Maverick first obtained the
