Macmillan near London, where
the two are holding diplomatic
discussions.
The bill will have two princi-
pal effects when it takes effect
July /, 1860:
1. It will make World War II
and Korean war widows eligible
for pension on the same basis
as World War I widows.
2. It will put the benefits of
all veterans and their depend
ents going on the pension rolls
in the future on q sliding scale
as determined by need through
income limits.
Costs Go Up
The first feature will mean
an additional cost of about $22
billion between now and the
year 1000. The second is ex-
pected to bring a $12 billion
saving.
Thus there is a net increased
cost of $40 billion, to be added
to the $105 billion of benefits
under present law for the next
four decades.
Budget Director Maurice H.
STAINS offered stiff opposition
to the bill before the Senate
Finance Committee because Of
its increased cost. But the bill
passed both branches by over
whelming votes.
World War II and Korean
War widows will be able to
get pensions If the husband
served at least 80 days and
received an honorable dis
charge. They will be subject
to the new sliding-scale pay
ments of the bill.
No veteran or dependent nov
on the rolls will receive a cut ir
pension because Of the bill. II

Gay turned up in Chicago
two days later. Radio patrol
man Jack Blakeslee saw her
stumbling along the lakefront.
When he stopped, she jumped
into his car and in a hysterical
voice told him she had been
kidnapped.
She told of being abducted at
Newark Airport by two men
who kept her tied up in their
car all the way to Chicago. She
said she was then locked in a
room until released.
But under continued ques-
tioning by police and the FBI.
the girl admitted the kidnap-
ing story was q hoax. She said
she went to Chicago by bus

Is Your Name
SHANK?

Shank, an old and honored sur.
name, is principally OF English and
Scottish origins. 1t admits of at

its usages it served originally as

liarity of the legs. Mechanics were
often adopted as surnames when

the year 1000. and thus Shank has
been passed from generation to
generation and has increased
steadily in use as a surname. 1t is
said also that Shank was the sur
name applied to newcomers to a
community who came from the
lands of Shank in Midlothian,
Scotland.
