EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
BUREAU OF THE BUDGET
WASHINGTON, 25, D.C.
APR 191946
My dear Mr. Latta:
On April 16, 1946, you advised this office that H. R. 841,
"For the relief of Lander H. Willis, " had been received at the
White House and requested reports and recommendations as to the
approval of the bill.
It is the purpose of the bill to waive the time limitation
provided by statute for filing a claim under the Employees' Com-
pensation Act in order to permit the Employees' Compensation Com-
mission to adjudicate the claim of Lander H. Willis by reason of
an injury alleged to have been sustained on January 4, 1943, while
in the performance of his duty as a rural mail carrier at Gray
Court, South Carolina.
The bill further provides that if the Commission finds that
the claim of Mr. Willis otherwise comes within the purview of the
Act, it shall pay to him a lump sum, based on the Commission's
finding, for the period from January 4, 1943, to the date of en-
actment, in addition to benefits to which he may be entitled after
the date of enactment, including medical expenses which have been
incurred on account of the injuries sustained.
A facsimile of the enrolled enactment has been referred to
the Post Office Department and the Employees Compensation Commis-
sion, and their replies, interposing no objection to the approval
of the bill, are attached.
I am authorized by the Director of the Bureau of the Budget
to recommend that the bill be approved.
Very truly yours,
Assistänt Director,
Mr. M. C. Latta,
Legislative Reference.

The White House.
