An Act to Issue 86 Million State Bonds for Veterans Pay
The act authorizes Iowa to incur eighty six million dollars in state debt through bonds issued to fund a service compensation program for veterans who served between September 16, 1940 and September 2, 1948. It creates a service compensation board, sets monthly payments of ten dollars per month for eligible veterans and twelve dollars for those with active foreign service, with caps and survivor benefits. Bonds are to be sold by bid, secured by full faith and credit, with taxes levied on property to repay principal and interest for twenty years. The act requires applications by eligible claimants by a specified date and outlines penalties for false statements, plus tax exemptions on payments and bonds. It takes effect upon adoption following a statewide vote.
