Congress Expected To Give
Funds For War Claims Soon
WASHINGTON — Among the
messes left by war is a welter of
claims and litigation.
Tens of thousands of civilians
are demanding redress for injuries
and losses, and soon they will get
their hearing. The 80th Congress
quthorized a War Claims Commis
sion to go to work on the problem
but never appropriated any money
for it. So the President didn’t ap
point the commission, and nothing
has been done as yet. But Con
gress is expected to provide the
AMAAWAW WRSREESS
Certain types of claims already
have been approved by Congress.
There are thousands of others,
however — questionable cases —
which the commission will inves
ticate. It will then advise Con-
g;ess as to the action which seems
justified. These are the war
claims payments which Congress
has already authorized:
1. Detention, injury; disabilityl
or death benefits for persons cap
tured on, American soil and intern-|
ed by the Japanese. These are the
victims of Guam, Wake and the
Phillippines. The detention bene
fit amounts to S6O for each month
of internment for persons over 18.
Those under 18 get $25 a month.
Captured Employes
In addition, empleyes of govern
ment contractors who were cap
tured, primarily the group on
Wake, will be paid the regular
wages they would have earned if
they had been at work instead of
in captivity, The federal security
administrator is directed to adju
dicate the claims of the govern
ment employes._
2. Military personnel who
while in Japanese prison camps
were not given the quantity and
quality of food which is stipulated
in the Geneva Convention of July
27,1929. They get $1 for each day
they«were ill fed.
Certain religious organizations
which remained in Japanese-held
American territory and gave sup
plies to American prisoners will be
reimbursed for their expenses.
These are the only claims the gov
ernment has recognized up to now.
So the vast majority are still up
in the air. You get an idea of how
many and various they are when
you learn that one government de
partment has received as many as
1,600 letters a day regarding civ
ilian war claims.
War Damage
The biggest issue which will
come before the commission is:
Can anything be collected by
Americans who suffered war dam
age in Asia or Europe? Interna
tional law clearly relieves a nation
from any responsibility for damage
inflicted in the course of combat
oOperations. U. 8. military units,
moreover, have their own claims

units which can settle damage
claims by natives injured through
non-combat activities, such as be
ing hit by a jeep behind the lines
But what of Americans who con
tinued to live and do business in
Europe, in Japan, or on the conti
nent of Asia after they had been
advised that war was likely? State
Department spokesmen have told
Congress that they felt ample
warning had been given to such
persons and that if they persisted
in remaining in the threatened
area it was their own responsibili
ty.
They see the situation in the
Philippines and the other Ameri
can islands as entirely different.
For fear of alarming the popula
tion or unnecessarily disrupting
normal activities, no firm warning
was given. The government was
thus responsible for their being
caught in the war.
Another ticklish issue is pre-]
sented by persons who were in-‘
jured or suffered property loss in
the attack on Pearl Harbor. They!
contend that as the war had not
started, it was not a combat opera
tion. They had not been warned
to leave Hawaii. Therefore, they
say, they are as entitled to damages
as persons who were living in the
Philippines.
Some limit has to be set on the
total damages that can be asséssed.
The Japanese nation, now largely
dependent on American dollars to
get back on its feét, will not pay
the bills. -The money will come
from a fund in the Treasury de
rived from liquidation of German
and Japanese assets in this coun~

We, The Women
BY RUTH MILLETT
NEA Staff Writer
Want your husband to shine as
a host? All right, then give him
half a chance. 3
When you invite guests over for
an evening, be sure they are peo
ple he likes as well as you do.
Don’t keep reminding him of
his duties, the way you remind
Junior of his manners. Give him
a chance to notice that glasses
need refilling, instead of pointing
it out to him.
Don’t set yourself up as a cen
sor of his conversation.” If he
starts to tell a story, let him tell it.
If he wants to talk shop, let him
talk shop.
It he’s the quiet type, don’t talk
constantly to try to “cover up”
for him. That will just make him
draw further into his shell.
HE’'S TOP MAN
Treat his like the head of the
house. If you aon't, you can't ex-

pect your guests to.
Don’'t deflate him if he's in an
expansion mood.
Don’t jump on him, after the
guests have gone, for pulling what
boner. If he is happily unaware
you regard as a conversational
of it, let him stay that way.
Don’t insist on entertaining only
at you convenience. Remember
most men are better hosts when
they invite the crowd over on the
spur of the moment than they are
at more formal parties their wives
have worked days to get ready for.
Give him a chance to be the
kind of host he wants to be, and
he’dd be a good one. :
