vide for the general welfare by es
tablishing a system of Federal old
age benefits, by enabling the States
to make adequate provision for aged
persons, dependent children, public
health and maternal welfare, passed

certain laws providing for financial
participation by the State and ap
proved by the Social Security Board
The bill authorizing the prelimin

The Bill which would make the

the House by the Delegate on Jan
uary third.

The Bill extending the facilitn of
the Public Health Service to seamen
on Government vessels not in Mili
tary or Naval establishments, was
introduced in the Senate Friday, by
Hon. Lewis B. Schwellenbach.
At the request of a number of
fishermen in Alaska, the Delegate
has introduced a bill to extend the
benefits of the Public Health Service
to fishermen.
The provisions of the law grant
ing the benefits of the Public Health
Service to seamen are embraced in
Title 24 Sec 1. U. S Code, which
reads as follows:
“The term •seaman', wherever em
ployed in legislation relating to the
Public Health Service, shall be held
to include any person employed on
board :n the care, preservation, or
navigation of any vessel, or in the
service, on board, of those engaged
in such care preservation, or navi
gation."
These provisions of the law have
been construed to he limited to doc
umented vessels, that is, to vessel;
of five tons or over, and not to in
clude fishermen who are not neccs
sarilv or principally employed in
the care, preservation or navigation
of the vessel.
In view of the fact that free med
ical service and hospitalization is
now extended by law to CCC work
ers, to persons employed under the
emergency Relief Appropriation Act
of 1935, no sound reason exists why
similar benefits should not be ex
tended to those who engage in the
hazardous occupation of fishing. The
text of the bill as introduced by the
Delegate reads as follows, the new
matter not existing in present law
being underlined:
That section 3 of the Act of March
3, 1875, entitled “An Act to promote
ec mnmy and efficiency in the mar
ine hospital service” < 18 Stat. 485),
is hereby amended to read as fol
lows:
The term ‘seaman’, wherever em
ployed in legislation relating to the
Public Health Service, shall be held
ti include any person employed on
board in the care, preservation, or
navigation of any vessel, whether
the same is a vessel of five tons, or
over, or less in the eivne mi boa id
’of those engaged in such care pie
i-servntiun, or navigation, and said
term 'seaman' shall also include anv
person operating, or employed, on
board, any such vessel in fishing op
erations, or in the service, on board,
of those engaged in fishing opera
tions carried on by means of such
vessel.”
