VETERANS REGULATION NO. 10 (a)
Miscellaneous Provisions
Whereas, section 4, title I, of Public, No. 2, 73d Congress, "An act
to maintain the credit of the United States Government", provides:
The President shall prescribe by regulation (subject to the provisions of
section 1 (e) of this title) the date of the beginning and of the termination of the period in each war subsequent to the Civil War, including the Boxer Rebellion and the Philippine Insurrection, service within which shall for the purposes of this act be deemed war-time service. The President shall further prescribe by regulation the required number of days of war or peace-time service for each class of veterans, the time limit on filing of claims for each class of veterans and their dependents, the nature and extent of proofs and presumptions for such different classes, and any other requirements as to entitlement as he shall deem equitable and just. The President in establishing conditions precedent may prescribe different requirements or conditions for the veterans of different wars and their dependents and may further subdivide the classes of persons as outlined in section 1 of this title and apply different requirements or conditions to such subdivisions.
Now, therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by said
law, the following regulation is hereby promulgated amending Vet- erans Regulation No. 10, as hereinafter provided:

2. Regulation no. 10, paragraph X, is hereby amended to read as
