Administration proposes 50000 death benefit for police families

The administration asks Congress to authorize a $50,000 federal survivor benefit for families of officers killed in the line of duty. Atty Gen Mitchell said the measure creates a federal floor for survivors benefits and would require governor certification of death in official duty. The plan would not retroactively aid about 100 earlier slain officers and amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 through the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration.
