Shortest bill before Congress on army retirements merits support
Washington editorial lauds a narrow bill allowing retirement for U S Army officers who served in World War I and incurred in line-of-duty disability. It notes about 1800 eligible veterans, contrasts with regular army provisions, and argues the measure, though small, reflects merit and national interest. The piece also discusses forest road funding debates tied to Senator Bursum’s amendments and a New Mexico highway project update.

Sinnott helps insure soldier’s widow through lapse remedy
Representative Nicholas J. Sinnott of Oregon pushes an amendment to the Sweet bill to allow government compensation for a deceased soldier still due under life insurance to be applied to the policy, reinstating coverage for the widow or mother. The case of Horold J. Taylor illustrates the issue as a tuberculosis death following disability and discharge, with entitlement lost due to lapse and failure to claim. Also noted is a New Mexico supreme court ruling allowing school boards to insure teachers and pay premiums from school funds, after a prior attorney general opinion questioned authority.
