Hay to Offer Amendment to Army
Bill Appropriating
$4,000.

Chairman Hay of the House military
affairs committee will offer an amend
ment to the army appropriation bill,
which was taken up again today for de-
bate. whereby needy families of national
guardsmen called into federal service will
be cared for. The bill appropriates
$500. 900 in all, and specifies that not
more than $50 month will be paid to
any one family.
The position of federal employees who
enter the army service at this time will
be much strengthened If the Hicks
amendment to the army bill is adopted
and there is reason to believe it will be
made part of the bill before final pas
sage, as it has already been adopted by
the House. This amendment provides
that positions will be held for govern
ment employees who are called out for
military duty. 1t had been assumed that
department heads would adopt this pol
icy, but the amendment by Representa-
tive Hicks Of New York would make this
absolutely certain.

grades and patches of sand found on
