Proposed Amendment to Veterans' Pension Eligibility: 1946 Congressional Session, 1945-01-01 - 1945-12-31

The letter from the Veterans' Administration to the Committee on Pensions discusses a bill to grant pensions to veterans of the War with Spain, the Philippine Insurrection, or the China Relief Expedition who served less than 70 days. The proposed bill would amend the eligibility requirements for pension benefits and allow veterans with as little as 1 day of service to qualify. The Veterans' Administration does not have an estimate of the cost of the bill and does not recommend its favorable consideration.
