Vets Amendment
To The Social
Security Act

Immediate beneficiaries of the
recent veterans amendment to the
Social Security Act are the SUR
vivors of World War II veterans
who died as the results of causes
not connected with their military
service and before the date on
which the amendment became law,
Miss Smith, manager of the jack
son, Miss, office of the Social Sc
curity Administration, said today.
Miss Smith explained that the
new section of the act provides
for the payment of monthly bene-
fits to qualified survivors of veter-
ans who die within three years of
their discharge under conditions
other than dishonorable and whose
dependents are not qualified to re-
ceive compensation or pensions
from the Veterans Administration.
National Service Life Insurance is
not included in compensation or
pensions.
In the case Of such veterans who
died before the enactment of the
new amendment, the measure pro-
vides for monthly benefits retro
active to the date of the veterans
death if the survivors file their
benefit claim with the nearest Of
flee of the Social Security Admin
istration before midnight February
10, 1947. Of course, monthly bene-
fits other than retroactive are pay
able on claims filed at any time
by qualified persons.
In cases where survivors of vet
Grams who qualify under the new
amendment already have filed claim
for monthly benefits earned by the
veteran under the old-age and sur
vivors insurance program of the
Social Security Administration, it
is possible that the provisions of
the new measure will provide
greater benefits than those earned
by the veteran These survivors are
included in the immediate poten-
tial beneficiaries and should APP
ply to the field office of the So
cial Security Administration.
The same applies to survivors
who have filed claim for lump
sum benefits under the old-age
and survivors insurance program
