FINEST SILVERFIATE Law Extends Pay Deadline Armed forces mustering - out pay may still be collected by elig ible world war II veterans dis charged before February 15, 1944, who have failed to apply for this benefit, the department of veter an’s affairs said this week. Previously, these persons had only until February 3, 1946, to apply, but recently enacted Public Law 539 extends the deadline to February 3, 1950. This amended section of the mustering-out pay act applies only to those dis charged before February of 1944, because every eligible serviceman since that time is assumed to have received the benefit at time of discharge. The man’s service must have been after December 7, 1941. The act provides payments of $300 for overseas service, $200 for more than 60 days’ service not outside the United States or Alaska, and $100 for active service of less than 60 days.
