It has heretofore been held by the pension
office that in cases of minor children the limita
tion began when the child reaches Ihe age of
sixteen years, and that no claim on account of
minor, could be entertained that was not fill
ed prior to the date on which the child became
twenty-one. Tho new arrears law wipes out all
limitation , and any child now over Iwenlytwo
years of age who would have been entitled to
pension, and failed to apply before reaching
majority, can file a claim and prosecute It suc
cessfully. Claims In this class, rejected under
(lie rulings of the oflice, can be re-opened and
