WASHINGTON, July 5.-The

has rejected a bill under which
members Of the United States
Marine Corps and navy could be
held in service beyond their regu-
lar enlistments.
The committee, according to
Senator David /, Walsh, of Mas
sachusetts, felt such action would
be a breach of contract with mem
bers of the Marine Corps and
navy.
The regular period of enlistment
in the Marine Corps is four years.
Enlistments in the Marine Corps
Reserve, however, are being ac-
cepted for the duration of the

GIVES STATUS OF
INCREASE in OLD
AGE ASSISTANCE
WELFARE BOARD ANNouNc-
Es PROPOSED INCREASE
WILL BECOME EFFECTIVE
AFTER MAY |. 1912
tsrselal q The Cifirenl

JACKSONVILLE. July 5.-To
correct a possible misunder-
standing regarding recent legisla-
tive increases in old age assist
aEee funds, George A. Chalker,
chairman of the District 10 We'll
fare Board, today issued state
ment in which he pointed out
that these additional funds would
not be available before May /,
1912. He cautioned old age as
sistance recipients not to expect
any immediate increase in
grants.
The statement. in part, said:
increased applications and in
creased requests for larger
grants, indicate that there is some
confusion in the public's mind re-
garding the payment of old age
assistance in Florida.
This is most unfortunate, and
is no doubt directly due to has
ty reading of news stories that
were published during the legis-
lative session.
The fact is that the legislature
reappropriated the same amount
for Old Age Assistance, Aid to
the Blind, Administrative costs
and participation in such Federal
programs as the distribution of
surplus commodities as in 1899
and in 1887, with the exception
that it provided for a five-cent
tax on money wagered on horse
tracks and seized the odd cents
breaks at horse tracks.
when the new money is
available, 1t is hoped that it will
be in sufficient amount to per-
NIT the increasing of the average
grant for Old Age Assistance
from the present $13 per month
to $23 per month. However, this
does not mean that every recip-
lent will be paid the same then
or now. The reverse is true.
