July 9, 1956 [H. R. 2267]

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary k ^ / * ° " J* ^^" of the Treasury is hereby authorized and directed to pay, out of any money not otherwise appropriated, to Morton J. Krakow of Arlington, Virginia, the sum of $190. The payment of such sum shall be in full settlement of all claims of the said Morton J. Krakow against the United States arising when, by reason of error on the part of the Army, the award of the Combat Infantryman Badge to him was delayed for nine years. Even though the award thereof was made retroactive, the Act authorizing additional pay for holders of the badge had been repealed before award to him was actually made, thus depriving him of the additional compensation he would otherwise have received: Provided, That no part of the amount appropriated in this Act in excess of 10 per centum thereof shall be paid or delivered to or received by any agent or attorney on account of services rendered in connection with this claim, and the same shall be unlawful, any contract to the contrary notwithstanding. Any person violating the provisions of this Act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be fined in any sum not exceeding $1,000. Approved July 9, 1956.
