Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Soldiers' Adjusted Compensation: Hearings Before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Finance, United States Senates, Sixty-Seventh Congress, First Session on S. 506
Senator mccumber. I thought it best, Senators, to make a very short explanation of my own as to the changes that have been made in the bill as it passed the House in May of 1920.
This bill in form is substantially the same as the bill which passed the House last May. It differs in form in two respects only.
First. Payments under Title II - the cash plan-to not begin prior to July 1, 1922.
Second. The elaborate reclamation project contained in the bill as it passed the House has been omitted entirely and in its place is submitted a new title, Title VI, which gives the soldier a preference right on the opening of public or Indian lands and also on all recla mation projects now in existence or hereafter established.
There were, to my mind, serious objections to the old Title VI.
