and the treasury at home have been
exceedingly generous in the matter Of
meeting claims, but the limit OF gem
crosby was reached when the pay
department requisitioned from the
treasury ten million dollars to meet
arrears of pay to soldiers.
This request startled the treasury
+ officials for the reason that the pay for
all troops in the field had already been
RENTED To the pay department at the
front. A financial expert was immedi-
ately dispatched by the war office to
the British headquarters in France
with small army of accountants.
There cannot( of course. be any
regular pay day for the troops in the
trenches. They are paid in patches,
whenever II is possible to do So The
method adopted is to send sufficient
cash from time to time to various pay
officers at different places where the
troops may be resting after a period
IN the trenches. a pay officer NAV.
for example. receive sufficient cash to
pay say 1000 men who have been
relieved from duty in the trenches.
But as matter OF fact a consdera bio
percentage of these men may not turn
np TO receive their pay. To begin
with, some may have been killed
others when relieved from trench
duty may go straight to hospital,
others may go home on leave at once.
1t Is proha BILE Mat not more than
l'ooo of the 1000 on the pay sheet
would turn up to receive their pay.
Sheets Not Cleared"
IN such cases, of course, the cash
that has not been paid out ought to be
returned to the pay department. al
headquarters with the names Of the
men who did not turn up to receive
their pay. But what apparently has
actually happened in many instances
is that the day sheets were returned
to the pay departments as having been
cleared whereas iii fact they were
not cleared and the men who were
| not paid subsequently put in their
claim for arrears of pay.
During the last four months the
expenses of maintaining the British
