The lives of nearly ten thousand World war veterans will be saved, or at least prolonged, by the pussage of the Sweet bill Just at the close of the congress, according to American Legion officials. The United States veterans bureau has highly commended the activity of the American Legion In bringing this bill to a vote at the eleventh hour, though National Commander Alvin Owsley was forced to get into the fight himself and, through his organization, insist on the passage of the act. Countless veterans afflicted with some form of tuberculosis have left their homes and are now wanderers In Western states in hope of seeking out a cure for the disease. Many of these are destitute and the passage of the bill, which permits a greater leniency by the extension of the time in which disability resulting from service origin may be termed as entitling the veteran to compensation, is one of the beneficial results. The provisions of the bill, affording more practical, beneficial protection for the veterans, are sweeping. Perhaps that feature which struck out of the former law the word pulmonary", so that every veteran may come under the extent of the act, Is the most The previous law limited the veterans' bureau to a consideration of pulmonary cases alone, and no examination was required, but officers of the bureau were permitted to use their medical knowledge In determining the approximate date when the affliction became active. In another section of the law the time for securing a certificate of disability hns been extended to March 1, 1924. The former ruling terminated this period, on August 9, 1922. These certificates are Incontestable evidence of the serVlce origin of the Injury, except In cases of fraud, and holders may receive compensation and hospital care; or, if the veteran dies, death compensation. More elastic rulings affecting disbarred veterans were Included In the act. These provjde that discharge on the grounds of moral turpitude and persistent misconduct" would not disbar the soldier from receiving compensation unless he was found guilty by A further provision of this section is that If an Injury was incurred In an enlistment previous to the one during which the veteran was discharged, that this would not disbar him from compensation. The Sweet act also provides that, in oases where a deceased vetem leaves insufficient funds to pay funeral expenses, the government will pay $100, and an additional $5 for the cost of a flag with which to drape the casket A further provision will keep the bodies of many veterans from potters' fields, for the government will prepare and transport home or to national cemeteries the bodies of men who were receiving government medical, surgical or hospital treatment. The previous method of payment of Insurance for disability and death only on death of the veteran has been so amended that, Instead of the beneficiaries being the only ones to receive the benefits, the veteran will be entitled to the payments, on total or disability, if his uncollected compensation at the time of the disability was sufficient to meet past due Insurance premiums at the time the Sixty-sevent- h l. per-maije- nt policy elapsed. Rejection for reinstatement of Insurance because of a service disability at the time of application for reinstatement was also so amended as to permit reconsideration of the policy. Eight thousand veterans are believed Furto he affected by this provision. ther protection Is offered those veterans who were mentally Incompetent and whose guardians permitted their Insurance to lapse while the patient was rated mentally Incompetent Policies of this nature are considered unexpired under the new law.
