BETTER PAY SYSTEM.
By The United Press.


PARIS, Oct. 2-(By Mail) Under the
new pay book" scheme recently start
ed American soldiers no longer will
have to wait months for their pay be-
cause their service records happen TO
be delayed or irregular. Each soldier
will be given a little book, which will
have almost the facility Of a handbook
in enabling him to collect from Uncle
Sam. At the beginning of every month,
the holder of pay book" can collect
the past months pay promptly. An
other radical innovation provides that
men arriving in lease areas may collect
their pay for fractional parts of a
month. The pay book" scheme already
has been approved by the controller OF
the treasury and g. II. O., and is sched-
uled to be in use this month.

Who Ordered the
Flu Masks, Anyway

Someone is in bad, not only down
at New Orleans, but several places
throughout the state, as result Of
the appearance of the flu masks, for
they have been declared of no good
in fighting the flu and, on the con-
trary, make the person wearing them
more susceptible to catching the dis
ease than keeping it away. All of
the employees in the restaurants wore
them as we'll as persons of other oc-
equations. In almost every city in
the state, except Bogalusa, flu masks
were worn, SldelI working them
overtime.
DR.. Bowling says hs CID moi order
them. Surgeon General Blue says he
did not; other prominent health Of
ficials state that they did not. Any
way the flu masks are gone. When
Influenza first appeared here the En-
terprise received literature urging
people to wear masks, and when it
was submitted to DIR. Slaughter Of
the City Board of Health he advised
against wearing them.

Don t Erect Building
Without Permission

There seems to be some confusion
in the mind Of the general public
regarding the recent ruling Of the
War Industries Board, Washington,
as to non-war construction, of which
the State Council of Defense has
direct supervision throughout Louisi-
ana.
No new building of any kind, no
matter what the cost, can be erected
within the state until permission has
been secured from the Priorities Di-
vision Of the War Industries Board,
washington. In order to secure this
permission application must first be
filed with the Council Of Defense OF
the parish in which the proposed
building is to be erected. After the
Parish Council passes upon the APP
plication it is sent to the State Coun-
ciI and finally to the War Industries
Board. However, no actual construc-
tion can be started until a permit is
ISSUED by the War Industries Board.
+ Repairs to existing buildings,
where the aggregate cos. Goes MOI ex-
coed $4,000, may be made without a
permit, and farm buildings, where
the aggegrate cost does not exceed
$1,000, and where such buildings are
actually needed for agriculturals pur-
poses, may also be erected without 4
permit. However, these are the only
two exceptions to this rule.
The main business of the United
States at the present time is the win
ming Of the war Any person who
proposes to erect a building should
ask himself whether or not this build
ing win aid directly in winning the
war and whether or not it is possible
to postpone the erection Of the build
ing until after the war is over. IN
less you can show the Louisiana State
Council of Defense the necessity for
your building on these grounds, it
viii be impossible for you to secure
a permit until after the war IS won.
