half-hour test began. Visiting officials,
however, said that reflection of the
moon off buildings or parked cars
would not be visible at any height
from above.
Two scheduled and three UN-
SCHEDULED incidents highlighted
the activity of the control center
staff, charged with supervising and
coordinating activities of the air
raid wardens, auxiliary and regular
police, and auxiliary and regular fire
men.
The test had just began when the
first of the unscheduled incidents
arose. The dome light in car parked
on Second avenue east, near the post
office, was on and the car, that of a
visiting motorist, was locked. Police
solved this problem by throwing
blankets over the windows.
Then lights were reported in q
shack on the southeast edge Of the
city, where it was found the occu-
pants were not aware that a blackout
was in force.
The last of the incidents was the
reporting by an air raid warden that
cars lights were not extinguished
A check showed that they were the
approved blackout lights of an emer-
gency ambulance.
The prearranged incidents, known
only to a few control room officials
sent the fire fighters to extinguish G
"blaze" on the west edge of the city
and the medical detachment to care
for an air raid casualty"
Only nine calls came into the
telephone exchange during the test
period, which drew Auditory COM
ments from blackout officials.
Following the blackout conferenc,
was held in the city hall court room
at which the visiting officials anc
heads of the local auxiliary SERVES
spoke.

Now suppose, while Joe's in
Australia, Mrs. Joe has another
baby. That young'un is worth

matter where he is or what he's
doing, an American soldier
knows that on the last of the
month he's going to get his SAL
airy, even if he has to slap a Jap
off the cashiers desk. 1t is one
Of the services most time-tried
methods of keeping morale high.
And, after Sept. l, the boys in
Cairo and Australia and Ireland
are going to be equally sure
that, at the same time they're
getting their money, their wives
and kids or mothers and faith
ers are going to be getting
checks from Uncle Sam. The
checks will contain a portion of
Johnny Doughboy's pay, and the
rest will come out of Uncle's
deep pockets.
This is the fruition Of the new
allotment law, which authorizes

the Government to take S22
from the soldiers pay, and add
S28 for a wife, $40 for wife
and child, and an extra 10-spot
for each additional youngster,
It is open only to men in the
private and low non-commls-
stoned classes.
Wives and children are called
Class-A dependents. Parents,
brothers and sisters are Class B
dependents, and in order to as
sure Government additions to
the allotment check, documen-
tary proof of their dependence
on the soldier must be furnish
ed.
If a soldier makes application
for the allotment-and no man
is allowed to leave the country
now without either making the
allotment or signifying in writ
ing that he does not wish to
make one-he has six months in
which to file necessary docu-
mentary proof of marriage and
fatherhood. If anyone other than
the soldier applies "a process
discouraged by Army all proof
must accompany the application.
Lets take Pvt, Joe Smith, sta
toned in Australia. Joe's got a
wife, and two minor kids. He
goes to his personnel officer and
makes out his allotment. 1t
comes to the Adjutant Generals
office in Washington. 1t is ex-
amined by the dependency al
lowance branch, okayed, and
then shot over to the Office of
the Chief of Finance.
Joe's application is broken
down into an accounts-payable
ledger, which is set up by mar
vellously swift, accurate card
punch machine. A stencil then
is made, and the accounts-pay-
able card and stencil are match
ed electrically, to be sure they
balance.
The check which Joe's de-
pendents will get then is electro
cally written from the stencil,
signed automatically, stuffed in
to envelopes and sealed-all by
machine.
The entire process takes %
separate steps, neceSsita E
about three days. And, on APP
proximately the same day each
month, between the first and
18th, Joe's folks get their check
for S72-Joe's $22 and the Gov.
ernment's $50.

ordered state police to make a
thorough investigation of every

prosecution of negligent or in

us Eases Money Burden Of Service Mems Family

is handling something over four
million personal allotments,
which break down into two
parts.
One is a different kind of
family allotment, in which the
allotter can earmark any portion
of his base pay to be paid to
wife or other dependents. To
this allotment the Government
adds nothing, and it is available
to all, officer and man alike.
The second branch of the per-
sonal allotment is for life insur-
ance- either Government, Ma
tional Service or private compa-
MES. Here the necessary amount
is deducted from the mans
monthly pay and applied toward
his annual premiums. There's no
way, under this system, that a
soldiers insurance can lapse
through accident or careless
ness.
