T. Brannock, officer in charge of the Medford VA office, said today. Brannock stated the Survivor Benefits acts, effective Jan. 1, 1957, relates a widow's benefit payments to the pay grade at tained by the veteran during his service. Terms Optional Brannock said its terms are optional for a widow whose hus band died of a service-connected death on or after Jan. 1, 1957, the widow will be eligible to receive compensation only un der the new law. Under the new law, Brarnock said, the benefits may be paid to a widow at a monthly rate of $112, plus 12 per cent of the monthly basic pay- now being received by a serviceman whose rank and years of service are the same as those of the deceased veteran. Minimum payment is $122. The military service depart ment, not VA, decides the amount of basic pay in each case, Brannock said. Pay scales in the military serv ices change from time to time, just as do civilian wages. Brannock explained that bene fits are computed on the present pay scale of the rank attained by the veteran at the time of his death or separation from service to avoid inequities. The new law provides the same rale of payment for war time and peacetime service-connected deaths. New Benefit Brannock said widows receiv ing less than the minimum $122 benefit should apply for the new benefit, even though they al ready are on the VA rolls. Ap plication cards for the new form of payment were mailed last Oc tober to 114,000 widows who may be eligible for higher pay ments under the new law, but three' of every five have failed to reply. If application is made by July 1, 1957, eligible widows may re ceive the larger payment retro active to Jan. 1, 1957. With cer tain exceptions, applications re ceived after July 1, 1957, will be effective as of the date they are received, Brannock empha sized. Advice about applying for the new benefit is available at the local VA office, 33 North Riverside.
