Aid Fund No Longer Available.

A bill to continue pay of all federal
government employees who render mil
itary or naval service when the United
states is at war with any foreign ma
zion was introduced today by Repre-
sentative La Guardia of New York.
It is up to Congress to appropriate

dent on March 25 last. No part of the
appropriation of 100000 made by
Congress for that purpose under the
previous call to the colors of June is,
1916. is available for services after
that date.
This decision of the controller of the
Treasury refers not only to men in the
National Guard who had been mustered
1ut of service. but also to those who
mad not been mustered out and whose
service has been continuous since the
call of June is, last year. The call of
March 25 last, in the opinion of Con-
trollcr Warwick, puts an end to the
service under the call of June Is. 1915
and therefore the appropriation made
under the earlier call is no longer avail
able.
