Widows of veterans who died of service-connected causes before January 1, 1957 may elect to re ceive the new payments or to con tinue under the old death compen sation. whichever is higher. In most cases. VA said, the new act provides for higher payment to these widows than were granted under previous laws. Any of these widows who wish to receive the higher benefit must apply for the new compensation payments, even though they al ready are on VA rolls. Application cards have been sent to 114,000 of these widows who may be eligible for increased payment, VA added. If a widow is eligible for an in creased monthly payment under the new law, VA said, such pay ments will be made retroactive to January 1, 1957, provided she ap plies by July 1, 1957. With certain exceptions, appli cations received after July 1 will be effective as of the day they are received, VA emphasized. The benefit will be paid at the month ly rate of $112 plus 12 percent of the basic monthly pay now being received by a serviceman whose rank and years of service are the same as those of the deceased vet eran, VA pointed out. Q—I have been drawing month ly compensation payments from VA, based on the service-connect ed death of my husband, a World War I veteran. If I get a job to supplement my income, will my compensation payments be stop ped ? A—N’o.
