Questions and Answers on Allow-
ance and Allottment Bill Now
Before Congress
|
|
|
|
Sponsored by the War Department |
a bill providing subsistence allowan-
ces for dependents of men in the ar-
med services is pending before Con- |
gress. The following questions and]
answers explain its provisions:
Q. Whose dependents would el
covered ?
A. Those of enlisted men of the |
Army, Navy, Marine Corps and the
Coast Guard up to and including the |
grade of sergeant in the army and
corresponding grades in other ser-|
vices.
(Committee attaches explained the |
measure was designed to cover “all
men’ up to and including sergeants |
in the army, whether they were se- |
lectees or volunteers as well as the |
men with coresponding grades in the |
other branches.)
Q. When would the measure
come effective, if enacted?
A. On the first day of the fourth |
calendar month following enactment.
Its provisions would extend for six |
months after the end of the war. |
Q. How much would dependents |
get?
A. That depends upon the degree |
of relationship. Two classes would be
set up: Class A, wife and children; |
Class B, parents, grandparents, any |
grandchildren, brothers and sisters. |
When an enlisted man wished to pro-
vide an allowance in either classifi-
cation, $20 a month would be deduc-
ted from his pay; if he desired to|
have allowances paid to both Class A |
and Class B dependents, an addition- |
al $5 a month deduction would be |
made. |
Q. Is that all the dependents will |
get, what the enlisted man had tak- |
en from his pay? |
A. No, the government would |
make these additional payments: For
a wife, but no child, $20 a month; |
wife and one child, $30 with $10 per
month additional for each additional
child; for a former wife divorced, to |
whom alimony has been decreed, $20; |
for one parent (or grandparent) $15; |
two parents, $25, and $5 for each ad- |
ditional parent, grandchild, brother |
or sister.
Q. Then a wife and two children
would receive $60 a month in all?
A. That's right.
Q. Ts any limit set on the amount |
which can be paid out? |
A. The total allowance to be paid |
to Class B beneficiaries might not |
exceed $50 a month. And such ben-|
eficiaries
be- | |
|
|
|
Q. Is the plan voluntary? {
A. Yes. The allottments would be |
granted upon the written application |
of the enlisted man. !
A. Is provision made for any oth
er payments in hardship cases?
A. Yes, the bill contains another |
section whoch provides that the fed- |
eral security administrator may
grant additional funds when he finds |
that the allowances are insufficient |
to provide the dependents with a re-
asonable subsistence. The amount of |
such payments would be determined |
by the administrator. |
Q. What is the status of the bill? |
A. It has just been introduced in
both houses of Congress. Committee |
hearings have not started yet.
WAR'S PRIORITIES

BUILDING PLANS
Harrisburg.- Maintenwnce of more
than 34,000 miles of surfaced and |
improved highway on the Pennsylva- |
nia system will be the principal func- |
tion of the Department's forces for |
the “duration,” Secretary I. Lamont |
Hughes said the other day.
Recent orders of public eithoritice!
halting construction save for pro-
jects actually started before April 9|
and those for which priorities may |
be obtained later confines the Depart-
ment largely to maintenance duties.
Months ago the department an-
nounced that it was authorizing the
expenditure of approximately $10,-
000,000 of improvements on rural |
roads this season to be done with its
own forces. Few of these projects
have been started, the Secretary add-
ed, and it is doubtful whether ap-
proval can be obtained from federal
authorities to get many other (obs
under way during the present con- |
struction season.
A check of the department's rec-
ords shows that seven contracts aw-
arded previous to the governmental
ban on starting construction were |
not actually undeg way on April 9. |
Efforts will be made to receive fed- |
eral approval on these since the con-
tractors in most instances had been
assembling materials and equipment |
preparatory to starting work.
The Department during 1942 had
hoped to place under contract the |
largest road building program in|
more than a decade, Secretary Hugh-
es said. In 1940 and 1941 the amount
of new work placed under contract
was in excess of $70,000,000 and tnis |
season it was expected that the con- |
tract value would have been at least |
more than $40,000,000.
Survey crews and draftsmen had |
been busy for months preparing plans |
for this year’s construction work.

the war, the highway secretary add-

The rearmament program of the |
federal government last year made it |
| increasingly difficult to obtain some |
materials and experienced men were
leaving for military service and de-
fense jobs. The Department was ov-|
ercoming these obstacles and was
was pointing to 1942 to be a banner |
year for road construction. {
“All this has been changed by the |
war,” Secretary Hughes said. “We
were preparing to spend millions of |
addition to what
we would have received on federal aid
for construction of highways in sec-
tions where our experience shows
they were needed to the war effort.
“The Pennsylvania highway sys-
tem is playing a most important part
uring this war. Our main arteries |
are carrying heavytraffic of vehicles
| hauling raw materials and finished
| productions to the many mills and]
| factories scattered throughout the]
Commonwealth. Workers even in the |
more remote sections use our impro- |
ved highways to get to and from the |
factories now busy with war orders. |
“At the present time we anticipate
| that the department will receive am- |
ple materials to maintain our high- |
ways to meet war time traffic. Our |
construction has been materially cur-
tailed but we propose to carry on as |
our contribution and do our share to- |
ward the ultimate Yictory. ” |
PUBLIC WARNED
AGAINST DANGER
OF FOREST FIRES
With the outbreak of many small |
forest and grass fires in the district,
state foresters have renewed warn-
ings to all persons to practice every
possible precaution with fires in the
woodland areas.
Charles E. Zerby, forester of the
Gallitzin district, said the fire fight-
er have been called to extinguish a
great number of small blazes.
He warns that woodlands are ex-
tremely dry and that fire wardens
and towermen are constantly on the
alert to avoid large outbreaks.
In some sections fire crews have
been reduced considerably by mili-
tary and industrial demands and the |
wardens are encountering difficulty
in obtaining sufficient men to fight
fires when they do break out.
Persons discovering forest fires
are urged to report them immediately |
to the
central offices in Johnstown.
Farmers and other land owners are |
also warned against burning brush |
and it is pointed out that under an |
Act of the Legislature of 1922 it is |
illegal to burn brush, swamp grass- |
wooded areas or other inflammable
debris between March 15 and June 30 |
and also between September 1 and
November 15.
