They pointed . lout that the present cost of storing surplus arms from world war 11 is $5 million annually, and that this cost will drop when arm gradu‘ally are turned over to South American countries.

Predicts Increase Of G. I. Allowances

Chairman Edith Nourse Rogers (R. Mass), of the house veterans committee said she is confident congress will act this session on a series of bills liberalizing veterans’ benefits. The committee approved measures to give married G. I. collegians bigger allowances and to expand the government's car purchase program for handicapped veterans. If passed by congress, the bills would cost taxpayers an additional $124 million yearly, it was estimated.
