Sec. 406.
Benefits
after termination of military service.
An individual otherwise eligible for benefits shall not be disqualified
from the receipt thereof by reason of being entitled to readjustment
allowances under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944; provided,
however, that the filing of a valid claim in any benefit year for
readjustment allowance under said Act by a claimant for any week shall,
when followed by authorization of payment thereof, be deemed an election by
such claimant to avail himself of his rights to readjustment allowances
under such Servicemen's Readjustment Act throughout the benefit year in
which such week occurs in preference to those under this Act, and shall
disqualify such claimant for benefits until whichever of the following
events first occurs: (A) the exhaustion of all his rights to readjustment
allowances under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944 or (B) the end
of such benefit year.
