HASTEN PAYMENTS
 TO RELEASED MEN
New Ruling Will Permit Soldiers to Collect Pay Due Them Without
 Delay.

Washington. Feb 4!-Thousands or
 claims for additional pay hH "'S- charged soldiers whose reCoruS "o' < complete at the time they were III l7- tered out may be settled speeoHH 'S the war department under d uH's today by the comptroller ot the Iit"S- ury to the effect that these o'e HIS are to be readjuSted WlthouI pa0Niiio | through the usual cOmpuca'eu du''' l ine. channels The director ol llil't'i'G
 of the wal. department was authorlHed
 to adjust the claims when a coh7l uc- 1 tion of the law is not involved ana the 1 eoldier's right is clearly defined.
 More than 5000 of these claims. eo,ne of them four months delayed, are on flc with the auditor of the war department, and many others are
 in the hands of the director of finance Hundreds Of complaints have been received from officers and men charging that pay or compensa tion for expenses was withheld unJustly. It was explained today that when a soldier is discharged In some cases he is given only partial pay, owing to the absence of records showing the exact amount to which he is entitled. Later these records become available.
 but the additional payment is not made until the voucher for part pay cashed by the soldier on his dis charge is cleared through the auditor
 of the war department. This pro- cedure often required three or four months and during this time the sol djer's final payment was held up. The comptrollers ruling today provides a short cut by permitting the finance
 division of the war department to
 issue a supplemental statement to a
 soldier immediately. On this state
 ment he can collect.

New York, Feb. 1.-The operations of automobile bandits in New York took a sensational turn today when five armed men in green touring car held up two surface cars on the Brooklyn Rapid Transit system in Flushing and Elmhurst, suburban dis tricts of Brooklyn.
 During the first holdup, two of the bandits pointed their revolvers at the mOtorman and the other three robbed the conductor.
 Later, in the business section of Flushing, several of the bandits boarded a trolley car and compelled the motorman to put on full speed. While the car was in progress and the bandits were robbing the conduc- tor, the autom obile kept pace behind the car. The bandits then forced the motorman to halt and the five men drove off in their machine.
