Measure to Increase Civil War Widows’' Pensions Vetoed Bill to Boost Pay of Retired Army Officers Also Rejected President Roosevelt today vetoed bills proposing to increase pensions for 362 widows of Civil War veterans, to increase the pay of certain re- tired Army officers and to give more generous rental allowances for some naval and marine officers stationed in the Canal Zone. o In vetoing the pension bill, Mr. Roosevelt said it would be neces- sary to grant similar increases to many more on the rolls in order to be fair if the measure should be ap- proved. The existing pension law provides $50 monthly for a Civil War vet- eran’s widow provided she was the wife of the veteran during his Civil War service. The vetoed bill would provide increases of from $40 to $50 a month for certain widows who were not married to veterans during the war. “It is quite evident that the Con- gress was impressed by the advanced age, economic condition and physical infirmities of this group,” the Presi- dent’s veto message read. “Such considerations incite the greatest sympathy and would be impelling were it not for the fact that this group of 362 widows is only a small part of the total number of 50,017 Civil War widows on the rolls March 31, 1940, many of whom would no doubt be found to be in similar circumstances and merit equal con- sideration and treatment. “To single out this small group for special consideration would cause dissatisfaction and disap- pointment unless equal treatment were afforded similar meritorious | cases.” The bill concerning retired pay of Army officers would have allowed certain officers who have performed active duty since retirement to credit that service to increase “the multiple of years of commission service in the computation of re- tired pay,” the veto message said. It added the War Department believed the present provisions of the Retirement Act are as liberal “as Is consistent with due regard | to the best interest of the Govern- ment.” The other vetoed bill would have authorized payments of rental al- lowance to naval and Marine Corps officers stationed in the Canal Zone during the fiscal years 1935 and 1936 in eftess of the rental allowances already granted thent because they had not been fully reimbursed for all the costs of quarters.

To liberalize the scale of bene- fit payments to the extent that the maximum benefit payment per week would be raised from $15 to $16 a week; and the duration of the bene- fit payments would be placed at a maximum of 20 weeks. Under the present District law the basic period of duration is 16 weeks, but if the benefit has worked for a sufficient number of years it is possible to obtain' a duration of as much as 26 weeks. $6 Minimum Payment. In this connection, the subcom- mittee also decided to recommend that the minimum benefit payment be placed at $6 a week. There now is no minimum limit. A bill spon- sored earlier by Mr. McGehee called for a minimum of $5 and a com- peting bill offered by Representative Eberharter, Democrat, of Pennsyl- vania called for a minimum pay- ment of $7 a week. | 4. That to become eligible for benefits a covered employe must have earned only $125 during the | year preceding application for bene- fits, this to replace the more cumber- some present legal requirement that the applicant must have worked 13 weeks during the preceding 52 weeks. 5. That employes of the District Unemployment Compensation Board must comply with the basic Federal personnel standards, meaning that all of the board’s staff must take | non-competitive, qualifying exam- inations under the Civil Service sys- tem in order to retain their jobs. This has been represented as the minimum standards which would | | meet with the approval of the Civil Service Commission and the unem- ployment section of the Social Se- | curity Administration. | 6. That the present waiting period, | during which benefit payments may | not be granted to an applicant be- tween the time he becomes unem- ployed and the time benefit pay- | ments may start, shall be reduced to two weeks. | 7. That certain other changes are | to be made in the act to permit more simple and understandable pro- cedures in the computation of benefit claims, Experience Rating System. The present District act provides for the adoption of the employer ex- | perience rating system after the end of this fiscal year—this being a plan under which preferentially low rates of pay roll taxes may be awarded to | | those employers who demonstrate | stability in employment. From state- ments made by both Mr. McGehee "and Mr. Dirksen, it was the under- | standing of the subcommittee that | eny application of this system would | be withheld by the District board | until Congress has a chance to con- | sider the subject early in the next session, | Adoption of a perfected new em- | ployer experience rating system was urged strongly during hearings be- | fore the committee by spokesmen for the Washington Board of Trade and various other Washington busi- ness groups, as well as by spokesmen | | for some national business concerns, | | including the General Electric Co. | It was opposed by spokesmen for | the Washington Industrial Union L1 2204 T.

O, who sup- ported the Eberharter bill, which omitted this system and also pro- posed more liberal increase in the benefit payments schedules than contained in the McGehee bill. Sliding Scale Plan. ‘The McGehee bill, carrying out principles proposed by the Dis- trict Unemployment Compensation Board—which were prepared after the board had taken the advice of experts attached to the Social Se- curity Board—called, not for an employer experience rating plan, but for a sliding scale system for flat-rate changes up or down be- tween one-half of 1 per cent and a maximum of 2.7 per cent, depending on the size of the unemployment reserve fund. The fund now amounts to $17,500,000. The committee decided to aban- don for this session the proposal of the District Unemployment Com- pensation Board to require that all pay roll tax receipts be audited by the office of the District auditor. There has been no independent audit of the board’s receipts since it was established, although audits are made of administrative expenses of the Board and of the benefit pay- ments.
