PAGING MR.. McGARRY! Your old Fl

Detective Dan McGarry and his helpful girl
friend, Kitty, are back again, by popular de-
mand Some of our readers have tried to place
the scene of McGary's exploits, but the
author. Matt Taylor, won't commit himself.
He is native New Yorker. but he isn't sure
that Dan is New York cop. Several people
have written from Philadelphia, Chicago and
points west, claiming that they know
McGarry. Maybe they do, says Mr. Taylor,
but Id rather meet Kitty, and if anyone
knows her, wish he would get in touch with
me. She might be as great help to writer
as she is to cop" If you haven't already met
the lovable Dan yourself, turn to 'McGarry
and the Four Weird Brothers" in this issue.

for a review of his case. simply
by telling his local board he
wishes TO appeal.
OF the 3,547 Michigan men
drafted into the army so far, an
extremely small number are mar
ried men. A review of their cases
has shown that their wives were
self-supporting. In no case could
it be shown that man has been
indicted into the army where-so
far as is known-he has left de-
pendents behind without a means
of economic support.
Several instances have arisen,
however. where local boards have
indicted volunteers without any
inquiry into possible dependencies,
with the result that unfortunate
domestic circumstances have been
brought to light after induction
into the army.
State headquarters have told
local boards that because a man
volunteers with the idea of escap-
ing domestic obligations, the local
board is not justified in helping
him do so. 1t is not TO the inter-
est of the community or of the
army to take man if by so doing
his dependents become a welfare
I problem.
