MARINE. BAND LOSER.
Members Ruled Out Of Extra Pay
bv Controller General.

Members of the United States
Marine Band lose out in the matter
of extra pay and allowances, in a
decision just rendered by the con-
troller general on several points
raised by the paymaster general OF
the Marine Corps. On the question
as to whether the bandsmen are en-
titled to the additional 20 per cent
provided by the acts of May Is, 1920,
and June 4. 1920. the controller gen.
eral replied in the negative.
He said that their pay is that fixed
separately for them as members of
the band in act Of August 29. 1916,
and they are not entitled to increases
of pay for enlisted men generally of
the Marine Corps" He held also for
the same reason that they ARE not
entitled to pay for good-conduct med
ais now held and those awarded here
after"
The paymaster general asked If the
second leader and the musicians of
the band may receive subsistence
allowance Of $3.50 as prescribed by
the Secretary of the Navy, or il they
came under the allowance prescribed
by the President under section IL OF
II. r. 1922. The controller general
replied that the second leader and the
musicians are entitled to the same
subsistence allowance, in lieu OF
quarters and rations. as a sergeant
major and sergeant respectively ana
therefore come under the provisions
Of section IL Of the act Of June 10,
1922. It is stated that these decis-
ions of the Treasury officials are not
intended to apply to payments re-
ceiyed by the musicians for periods
prior to July 1, 1922.

When man determines to abjure

smoked so long that all your works

RED CROSS WILL SEEK
MEMBERSHIP ON SEAS
Navy Department to Aid New
Roll Call Plan.

Persons sailing the seas during No
vember and December will not escape
the opportunity of becoming a MEM
Der of the American Red Cross at its
annual roll call. Plans for the first
enrolment campaign on the water
are now being formulated at national
headquarters, and 1t Is believed by
officials that not one passenger or
crew member on the briny deep will
be overlooked.
The cooperation Of ship owners
will be enlisted in the campaign, said
a statement issued at headquarters
last night. and ship captains will be
requested to take charge of the mem
bership enrolment on all craft. On
large liners committees will be or
Ganized representing both passengers
and crews, and competition encour-
aged in striving for 100 per cent
membership on each vessel.
Through the Navy Department. the
statement continues, 1t is expected
that roll call activities will be car
ried on board every vessel of the
Navy that is absent from her home
port during the roll call period
The idea Of going out into the
oceans for members was suggested
by the success of E. A. Wagef1eld,
American consul at Prince Rupert,
B. c.. who. in 1921, enrolled the sail
ors Of the fishing fleet operating in
the north Pacific in the American
Red Cross.
