They will soon start paying $45 to tens of thousands of veterans for every month in which they spent six days within range of en- emy guns. But the job of sorting out and deciding claims’ will involve a mountain of paper work and a long time lag, experts in both Con-. gress and the Pentagon say. Congress approved this special combat pay retroactive to the start of the Korean campaign. Pentagon officials estimate it |i will cost between 250 and 300 mil- lion dollars. - The measure applies chiefly to infantrymen of the Army and pes rines. Sen. Moody (D.-Mich.), the sponsor, said the main purpose is to give hazardous duty pay to men on equal footing with fliers, submariners and para- ‘ troopers.

The problems become more in- volved, the experts say, when they At Vonr Friendly Stores! start reviewing the long lists of|* men who have gone through Ko- rean combat in the past. This is easiest for combat in- fantrymen but becomes difficult for those in the Navy, Air Force or attached to numerous fringe units, such as supply and signal corps. Some experts say that a number of veterans who have seen bitter action might be ineligible. They say it is possible some infantry units might have been pulled from the line, badly chewed up, without | serving the required six days dur- ing a hot_month’s campaign. Nearly two million official claim forms are being printed for the use of ex-servicemen. The forms will be available at most post of- fices by Sept. 15. f * ANYTHING CONCERNING } AUTOMOBILES SEE THE TWINS Pu 1870-1871 Dr. J. A.
