GOP Chairman's Attack On
Truman's Fiscal Policies
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.- Vloe President Barkley starts
this week in a 1950 campaign warm-up enlivened by Republican
iaik ol tne Truman program as leading to a "poornouse state."
Newly-wed Barkley, accompanied by his bride, is billed as the
principal speaker and chief attraction at a Democratic lund-ralslng
dinner in New York City Friday night.
Barkley is an old hand at key
noting party drives. He may come
up with a democratic answer to
the charges of Guy G. Gabrlelson,
the republican national chairman,
that the Truman administration
is spending the country Into the
kind of doubtful security given
poorhouse inmates.

last night, declaring: 1 :
"If we continue under the pres
ent administration we are headed
for a poorhouse state and, while
the inmates of a poorhouse may
have a certain amount of so-called
security, their lot is not particu
larly enviable."
It was a departure by the G. O.
P. leader from the "welfare
state" phrase with which his par
ty members have been describing
what President Truman calls his
"fair deal" program.
In this 'battle of catch-words,
some republicans were said to be
lieve? that if they kept on talking
about the "welfare state" in de
risive terms the voters might be
gin to believe they didn't have
public welfare in mind.
Says Idleness Fostered
Gabrlelson laid down some
broad charges against the Tru
man administration, among them
that it is fostering unemploy
ment During the week ending Novem
ber 12, he quoted labor depart
ment figures, 1,746,200 claims
for unemployment compensation
were pending. He said this com
pared with 865,721 such claims in
the week ending Nov. 13, 1948,
when a republican congress was
in charge on Capitol Hill.
"That Indicates the kind of se
curity the Truman administration
Is providing and, Ironically
enough, the figures are supplied
by a bureau of employment se
curity," he said.
Spending Flayed
The republican chairman
pounded away at the point that
the government is spending
money it doesn't have.
"We are today picking the
pockets of our grandchildren and
great grandchildren to pay for
the senseless extravagance and
waste of the present administra
tion," he declared. "Personally, I
think we are paying a very high
price to keep Pendergastism" In
deep-freezers in Washington.

Disabled To Get
Dependency Aid
Veterans with service-connected
disabilities rated 50 to 60 per
cent, and who have one or more
dependents, will soon receive ad
ditional nllnwAnops for their de
pendents by virtue of legislation
enacted by the 81st Congress, ac
cording to the Veterans Adminis
tration. Prior to passage of the
new law only veterans rated 60
percent and up were entitled to
dependency allowances.
Monthly additional amounts for
veterans disabled In wartime,
based on 50 percent, are:
Wife alone, $10.50; wife and one
child, $17.50; wife and two chil
dren, $22.75; wife and three or
more children, $28; one child (no
wife), $7; two children, $12.25;
three or more children, $17.50;
one dependent parent, $8.75; and
two dependent parents, $17.50.
Veterans entitled to compensa
tion for disabilities incurred in
peacetime service receive, 80 per
cent of the wartime rate.
In order to qualify for depend
ency allowances, the veteran
must submit proof of relation
ship, such as marriage and birth
records. Where his dependents
are on record with the VA on
December 1, 1949, and the nec
essary evidence of relationship
and dependency is furnished
within five months from that
date, the award will be made
effective December 1. Otherwise,
the effective date will be the date
the evidence is received.
The VA said It is now review
ing the case files of veterans
rated between 50 and 60 percent
disabled so as to advise them of
their possible entitlement to du
pendency allowances.

announced Saturday that Port

the Sammons appointment at Sa

and presumably call the tune."
Morse replied last night: "Ed
