Veterans Administrator Frank T. Hines urged Congress to remove all non permanently disabled veterans from disability payments if they are beneath 50 percent. The move would save about 51.3 million dollars the first year and remove 356,555 veterans from the rolls, prompting objections from Senator Robinson who warned of risking needy veterans. Hines also proposed retirement act changes to require six months service and actual war-related injury to qualify for retirement pay, projecting annual savings of 3.386 million and affecting 3,200 people.
