The committee met at 10 a.m., pursuant to call, in room 356, Old House Office Building, Hon. Olin E. Teague (chairman) presiding. The CHAIRMAN. The committee will come to order. The committee is meeting this morning to consider all the bills pending before the committee which have to do with what is called our peacetime GI bills. There are 22 House bills, and 1 bill, S. 1138, in the Senate, and I would, without objection, place in the record at this point each of these bills and reports that we have received concerning them. (The bills referred to follow :) Hon. OLIN E. TEAGUE, DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, Chairman, Committee on Veterans' Affairs, DEAR MR. CHAIRMAN: This letter is in reply to your request of July 24, 1959, for the views of this Department with respect to S. 1138, an act to provide readjustment assistance to veterans who serve in the Armed Forces between January 31, 1955, and July 1, 1963. In general, S. 1138 would extend to veterans who serve between January 31, 1955, and July 1, 1963, benefits granted to veterans under the Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1952. The act provides, however, that these benefits will not be afforded to any individual on account of service as a commissioned officer of the Coast and Geodetic Survey or the Public Health Service. This Department is opposed to the further extension of veterans' benefits for noncombat service. However, the Department will defer to the views of the Department of Defense and the Veterans' Administration, the agencies directly concerned in this matter. If legislation of this nature is given consideration, attention is called to the fact that section 501(d) (1) of Public Law 881 of the 84th Congress provides that "active service of commissioned officers of the Coast and Geodetic Survey shall be deemed to be active military service for the purpose of laws administered by the Veterans' Administration." The Bureau of the Budget has advised that there is no objection to the submission of this report and that enactment would not be in accord with the program of the President. Sincerely yours, F. H. MUELLER, Acting Secretary of Commerce. |
