of the service have found that some
of the allowances for certain provi-

now shifting things so that better re-
suits in the way of satisfying the men
can be obtained without adding to the
total cost.

figuring must be done in order to
keep expenditures within bounds. With
a total enlisted force of approximately
$1,000 men, Uncle Sam has to pay
more than $7,400, 900 annually to make
the inner man" happy.
