The Increase Of rs per cent should
not BE added to the number OF days
served in the army before the serv-
ice credit is multiplied by the fac
tor. The factor was compiled by
Gen. Hines and is the official
method devised by the Bureau.
Gen. Hines gives the following
directions for the Use Of the factors.
Allow 81 per day for each day OF
home service.
Allow $1.25 per day for each day
Of foreign service.
Deduct $50 from this sum.
Multiply the balance by the fac
tor opposite the age (nearest birth
day. as shown in the table below.
The result will be the amount Of
the ajusted service certificate.
As an eaxmple:
Age at date OF issue. 81.
Home service. 175 days.
Overseas service, ITO days.
One hundred and seventy five
minus so, times 81. equals $ll5.
One hundred and ten times 3l.25
equals Sl37.50.
Adjusted service credit. $252.50.
2.532-factor at age OF 27.
