Congress0Ks
Bill 10 Boost
Benefits
BY the Associated Press

Congress has sent the White
House a bill to change the system
of payments to survivors Of serv-
icemen. President Eisenhower
had asked for the legislation to
make military careers more at
tractive.
Passed by voice votes Of the
House and Senate last night, the
compromise measure would:
/. Boost Veterans Administra-
ton payments to dependents o
servicemen who die on active
duty. Widows now receiving $87
for the service-connected death
of a husband would get from
S122 to $166 a month, depending
on his rank. There is now a fiat
rate for all. from private to gen.
eral.
2. Put all servicemen under
the social security system. They
would have part of the cost de-
Quoted from their pay as civilian
workers now have.
8. Do away with the $4,000
free life insurance set up for
servlcemen during the Korean
war.
The bill would go to effect
January l. 1857. Persons now
receiving VA payments could re-
main under the present system
or 60 under the new one, if elig-
ible.
The added benefits would cost
an estimated $458 million the
first year and slightly less in sue
ceeding years.

neering staff.
Since its capital expenditures
are dependent upon funds bor-
rowed through bond issues. re-
payable by income from its rates
and charges. the commission has
had to be resourceful in develop
ment Of its water resources. But
the development has kept pace
with the needs and reflects the
areas remarkable growth.
The commission first water
supply project, for example, was
the construction of a filtration
plant with a capacity of l mil
lion gallons per day-at Hyatts-
vile in 1920. The water was OBJ
tanned from the nearby North
west Branch Of the Anacostia.
A system of wells served the
Chevy Chase area until 1922.
and a filtration plant acquired
from Takoma Park was enlarged
and used in that general area
until 1880.
/ Development of the Northwest
Branch at Burnt Mills in the
Silver Spring area was begun in
1924. This included a small stone
intake dam, filtration plant. fill
tered water reservoir and pump
ing station.
The filtration plant, which had
a capacity of 2.5 million gallons
per day, was enlarged in 1926 to
provide an additional 1.3 mil
elion gallons per day. and in 1880
a concrete dam replaced the
stone structure.
This Burnt Mills installation,
although intended as a tenn
porary measure, was used until
1886. when the present Burnt
Mills plant was completed and
other sources of supply were
abandoned. Except during
periods of low stream flow, when
emergency connections with the
District system were used, it fur
nished all water for the entire
sanitary district until 1914.
1t was not until 1899 that the
commission started development
of the Patuxent as an additional
source of supply. This consisted
of a pumping station at Mink
Hollow, near Ashton. with a 30
inch line extending across the
divide to supplement the low
stream flows of the Northwest
Branch.

The main Patuxent develop
ment was begun in 194l. with

In addition to the yield oil
raw water to be obtained from
the possible new sources, there
are many other important fac
tors to be considered in reach
ing a decision. Among these are
the quality of the water, the dis
