Widows of Hawaii
Raid Victims to
Receive Pensions
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.
(AP) Widows of the fighting
men who died at Pearl harbor
will receive six months' pay and
a pension for life.
Awaiting signature on the
president's dp.sk is a measure to
increase the pensions from the
peacetime range of S22-S56
lTiOniWj' to wartime levels of $30
to 83.
Uncle Sam's guarantees that
wife and children will be cared
for If death should strike are
I matched by o)her government
protection which shields soldier
and sailors, while they live and
serve the country, from financial
worry.
This Is embodied in the sol
dlers' and sailors' civil relief act
of last year which suspends "en
forcement of civil liabilities1
and that Includes taxes, install
ment payments and insurance
premiums in certain cases
permit service men "to devote
their entire energy to the de
fense needs of the nation."
The widow's pension is not de
termined by the fighter's gold
braid or years of service, hut by
the age of his widow and the
number and ages of the children,
So the private's widow may
ccive a larger pension than the
major-general's, though the six
months' pay, of course, would be
otherwise. Pensions are paid for
death In action or from natura
causes.
The pay is granted by the war
and navy departments, the pen
sions by the veterans adminis
tration. The latter also adminls
tcrs the national life Insurance
program, under which service
men may get life Insurance pro
lection up to $10,000 at very low
rates.
