|Guide
By Maj. Thomos M. Mol

Dependents Of deceased war vet
erans probably think they have q
right to yell good and loud.
To many of them. their benefits
are as confusing as q couple OF
Chinese puzzles. Letters written
the Guide" indicate that some
dependents don't get their benefits
for the simple reason that they
don't know what they're entitled
to-!
Specifically. for instance, they
do not know whether to apply for
death pension or death compensa-
tion. The difference between those
two terms is fundamental 80. to
those who know it.
You say that once a dependent
gets face to face with the Vet
erans' Administration he (and
that includes she) will get straight
ened out. If he rates a payment
of some kind he won't have to
worry whether it is pension or
compensation. He'll get it, what
ever it is, and that's all that mat
ters
Unhappily. that is not all that
matters. The rub comes when the
dependents family or employment
situation changes. That's when q
dependent should be up on his
toes because that is when a clear
understanding Of the pension
compensation puzzle is necessary.
When o veteran dies as the re-
suit of a wound or other disabil-
ity acquired during his service and
in line of duty, the dependent will
draw death compensation.
If the death is not connected
with the veterans service. the de-
pendent will draw death pension
df anything).
That's the difference and II it
sounds simple 1t is deceptive.
Look at compensation first. Who
gets it and how much?
The widow Of q veteran who
dies from q service ce-connected dis
ability, It doesn't matter when
he died.
That widow probably starts
drawing her husbands national
service life insurance very soon
after his death. but that doesn't
have the slightest effect on the
compensation she rates. She Is
entitled to compensation regard
Evening star., 1949-09-14

less of any insurance she gets and
regardless of her income.
A widow without any children
receives $75 a month until she
remarries, at which time it Is gone
forever. If she has one child she
gets 500 a month. Each addi-
tional child adds SIS to the total.
A child is a child until 18 years
old Cor 81 If still in school.
If the deceased veteran leaves
no widow but does leave a child
or children, do they get death
compensation?
Sure. One child gets $58 a
month. Two split $82 a month
three. $106 a month. Each ad-
ditional child raises the pot by
$40 a month, with the total amount
equally divided among all chill
dren.

If both dependent parents are
living they split $40 month. If
only one is alive the amount is $50
a month. But parents must show
the VA that dependency exists.
There is no hard-and fast rule to
define dependency. The VA judges
each case on its own merits.
Evening star., 1949-09-14

Third and last is the dependent
parent of a veteran.
Note the word dependent" A
widow does not have to be de-
pendent. A child does not have to
be dependent. But a parent does
in order to get death compensa-
ton.
Evening star., 1949-09-14

A remarked widows children
continue to rate death compensa-
ton even after her remarriage.
Foster parents and foster children
get the same death compensation
consideration as parents and chill
dren.

WASHINGTON, CP)-The Sen ate took a short breather Saturday in its efforts to pass a new farm bill, after accepting the flexible price support program it once had rejected.
 A late-hour tangle on amend ments Friday night put off final action until today, following the 45 to 26 defeat of an attempt to write in a high-support provision for basic crops.
 That provision called for gov ernment price props at 90 per cent of parity for such farm products as cotton, wheat, corn, rice and peanuts.

Will Slash Naval
 Aviation By Half

WASHINGTON, R)-Chairman Vinson O.-GaD the House armed services committee said Saturday the defense department has decided to cut naval and ma rine aviation about in half"
 Vinson's report of secret or ders" at the Pentagon came as the committee dug grimly into dis turbing" reports that defense chiefs are scuttling the navy's air arm.
 The armed services chairman said further that he has it on reli- able authority that the air force has taken the position that no large aircraft carriers or their air groups should be kept in the navy. Vinson spoke up as his commit tee started another days hearing to get to the bottom Of friction in the armed services. Before the committee was Rear Adm. Herbert C.. 10 >Wood, navy budget officer, to explain the navy's financial position.
 HopWood was called to tell what is happening to funds earmarkod ] by Congress for naval air.
 That inquiry follows up navy charges Friday of air force bUng- ling and plotting.
 Vinson himself reeled oti fig ures from this years appropriation for the navy-Which Congress has not finally decided.
 These, he said, show cuts fIr the naval air arm that indicate Con gress intended to let i; wither on the vine by failing to give t enough operating aircraft" "I have seen e reputable dOCu- ment indicating that decisions have been reached in the CdefenseI . department to cut naval and ma rine aviation strength about in half and that the air force is to be ] given an expanded role" Vinson said.
 l "The navy would become a pro- tective convoy to move troops and ! fipht submarines
 Tt is my understanding that se- cret orders 10 that effect have been issued in the Pentagon." l In addition to reductions being made by Congress in this years naval funds, Vinson said he under stands the navy is to be cut S353,- 100000 more by action of the de- fcnse department itself
 Admiral Hopwood said Yes sir. that is right"

Fall Hosiery Fashions
By Anne Votes CIorke

Fit is essential for both good
appearance and long wear, and as
nearly all stockings come propor-
toned for both height and weight
of the wearer it Is possible to buy
stockings that are right for you.
When you find the right length
and size, be sure and ask for it
again, to get the most In salts
faction and comfort.
This years color story is one Of
subtle blending from hem to toe
stockings that blend with both
costume and shoes. They need
not match but there must be har-
mony. In addition to the brown
family (from honey to deep
browns) there are many stockings
with overtones of color that will
go especially we'll with the clothes
in your wardrobe-coppery tones
for green, misty blue overtones
for your navy suit or coat.
Some women prefer f1attering
deep skin tone with everything.
Others like to match their stock
ings and gloves to their furs.
Salespeople everywhere are pre-
pared to help you find the right
color If you cannot find 1t for
