Pension Bill Expands Civil War Veterans Benefits
President Roosevelt signed a Service Pension bill for Civil War veterans serving 90 days or more who are at least 62, with $12 per month, rising to $15 at 70 and $20 at 75, payable after filing. Existing pensioners age 62+ may join. No overlap with other pensions is allowed. The Centreville Observer backs Crawford County’s nominating system to unify Democrats. The piece also notes Baltimore mayoral concerns and Maryland party harmony prospects, plus church and academic observations and medical opinion quirks.
