Dispute Over GI Pay Boost Threatens Military Increases
Washington April 23 congressional dispute over special combat pay for Korea fighters risks wiping out 40 to 70 million dollars of extra pay for all uniformed personnel, including Korean veterans. About 3144 million service members would be affected if Senate House talks fail to reach a compromise and president signs before May 1. Leaders of the conference committee failed to resolve differences over the $45 monthly hazard pay and the cost of living boost, likely delaying increases for April.

House rejection blocks Korea combat pay bill
The House blocked action on amendments including Korean combat pay after Chairman Vinson offered a take it or leave it bill. The House bill would raise base pay and allowances by 10 percent at an annual cost near 850 million, while the Senate plan favored a 3 percent base pay increase with higher nonbase allowances totaling about 480 million yearly. The combat pay would have been retroactive to fighting start, targeting front line troops under enemy fire.
