Acting Secretary of the Navy Roose-

sailors stranded in New York had
been obliged to make appeals to char
liable organizations. and has issued a
statement which will take care of that
situation. Sailors who are actually
entitled to assistance may now call at
lA4 Broadway, bringing with them
their discharge papers, where they will
get advice and substantial aid from a
navy officer
Mr.. Roosevelt says: ANY man in
New York City released from the
navy under honorable conditions, be-
tween November II, 1918, and February
Is, 1919. who has not sufficient funds
to purchase a ticket home, upon ap-
plication TO the transportation officer,
will be given a government trans
portation request for railroad ticket
to his home, together with cash for
meals en- route, upon presenting his
discharge papers. They will also be
furnished with blank forms on which
TO submit claim for the $50 bonus
authorized in the revenue bill"
Mr.. Roosevelt explains that up to
this time the navy has released only
such men as may have requested re-
lease, and has not demobilized any
men who desire to remain in the serv-
ice. The act Of Congress passed Feb
