To amend section 303 of the Career Compensation Act of 1949 to authorize the transportation of dependents and baggage and household effects of certain retired members.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That section 303(c) of the Career Compensation Act of 1949, as amended (37 U.S.C. 253(c)), is amended by adding the following at the end thereof: "Such baggage and household effects may be shipped to a location other than the home selected by him. In any case in which the costs are in excess of those which would have been incurred if shipment had been made to his selected home, the member shall pay that excess cost. If a member authorized to select a home under subsection (a) accrues that right or any entitlement under this subsection but dies before he exercises it, that right or entitlement accrues to and may be exercised by his surviving dependents, or his baggage and household effects may be shipped to the home of the person legally entitled thereto if there are no surviving dependents. However, in any case in which the costs are in excess of those which would have been incurred if shipment had been made to the members' selected home, the surviving dependents or the person legally entitled to the baggage and household effects, as the case may be, shall pay that excess cost.' Approved August 17, 1961.
