CONGRESS FACING
Benefits for Widows and
Orphans of World War
to Be Sought.
By the Associated Press.
With the specter of a bonus fight
absent for the first time in years, the
new Congress appeared likely today to
face another problem involving vet
erans—pensions for widows and or
phans of World War soldiers.
Maneuvers to obtain broader pen
sion legislation for relatives of these
veterans are looked for both from
within Congress and from sources out
side.
Pensions are provided now in cases
of death from causes traceable to war
service. Some congressional sources,
however, expect a strong movement
to provide benefits regardless of the
cause of death.
Cost Estimates Not Available.
Advocates argue that the latter type
has been given widows and children
of men who fought in other wars.
Cost estimates are not yet available.
Chairman Gasque of the House
Pensions Committee said he is con
sidering introducing a "uniform pen
sion" bill. It would give the same
pension treatment to widows and or
phans of those who fought in the
World. Spanish-American, Indian and
Civil Wars.
Several other Congressmen also
were reported contemplating pension
proposals.
House Pension Committee attaches
pointed to indorsement of pension
legislation by conventions of several
veterans’ organizations as indications
that those groups would be working
for such legislation.
me Hint at pension move.
Chairman Rankin, Democrat, of
Mississippi, of the House Veterans
Committee said nevertheless, he had
seen no indications yet of a strong
move for pensions, although probably
they would not be considered by his
committee.
He said he thought if any major
legislation affecting veterans came
before the next Congress, it probably
would be designed to take care of
Gold Star mothers whose insurance
payments expire in the spring.
“I think we are bound to do some
thing for them,” he added.
