ARMY-NAvY BILL
PASSED BY SENATE
House Measure Rushed Through
Upper Chamber
NOW GOES TO CONFERENCE
Equalization Is Its Goal-compensa
ton To Be Computed On Length
Of Service And
Rank.

Washington.-The Senate passed
after only brief debate the House bill
fixing a new basis of pay for officers
and enlisted personnel of the Army,
Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard,
Coast and Geodetic Survey and the
Public Health Service. Two amend
ments were added and the measure
now goes to conference with the
House for adjustment of the differ.
ences.
Provisions of the bill are effective
July /, upon which date the present
wartime basis of pay and allowances
automatically expires and which
would have been supplanted by the 1908
schedules had not action been taken
on the revision bill.
Chairman Wadsworth Of the special
committee in charge of the bill de-
clared it was written on an entirely
new plan which he asserted was the
first effort to put the pay of the serv-
ices ON scientific basis. Mr.. Wads-
worth claimed that the measure would
save the Government a total of nearly
S16,0O0,0 in 1923, as compared to the
present rates of pay, but it will cost
approximately s1,000,0o0 more than
the 1908 basis, computed on the pres
ent strength of the services affected.
In writing the bill, Mr.. Wadsworth
said the joint commission which con-
Quoted an extended inquiry into the
subject, sought to equalize and adjust
the rates of pay so that the compensa-
ton of officers and men alike would
be computed on combination Of
length of service and rank. The chair
man said it guarded against what he
termed the "stagnation" in promotion
so that an officer or man automatical-
ly will receive increases in salary after
given periods of years, while at the
same time, according to the Senator's
explanation, the Government is pro-
tected against "the evils of too rapid
promotion" and the consequent rapid
increases in base pay.
The old schedules of allowance for
quarters, heat and light are done away
with and single allowance covering
all and adjustable to meet changing
living costs was substituted so that,
the Senator said the personnel of the
service "can live as Americans ought
to live, modestly yet with sef-respect
and free from worry about getting into
debt"
Cognizance is taken of the man with
dependents and he is accorded more
than the unattached officer or man
with a view to providing "a modest
competence" for all.
Senator Wadsworth explained that
while the pay of some men would be
cut others will receive increases, and
he believed that on the whole 'the
result will be one that will encourage
men to make the services a career
with a knowledge that the future holds
prospects worth while for them" The
Senator added he felt certain, from
the information given the joint COM
mission during its study, that the
morale of the military areas would be
greatly improved.
