theme OF much Of the mail, how
ever, Is: I'VE don't need our boys
allowance. Let him have 1t. We can
get along"
In this vein was q letter from q
woman who reported that she did
not need money but could the army
please send her three dozen safety
pins, 0s she was going to have O
baby, Girl workers collected the
pins and sent them TO her,
The oDB has also been up against
some delicate tactical problems, as
In the case OF the soldier who
wanted his allowance sent TO his
girl friend rather than his wife, and
the common law wife whose proof
Of marriage was the afiidavit OF
nelghborS that they had participated
In O traditional Sharivari.
The oldest parents on the ODB
list are n mother i0i years old and
O father Of lie years. They ex.
pressed q wish that "the army Of.
flcers would take good care OF our
son."
The ODDS heaviest check goes to
the wife and 10 children Of Eugene
Pinkerton Of Chicago, who found II
impossible to list oil his children
on the ODB application blank, He
attached q supplemental sheet. The
Pinkerton family receives $l62 a
month.
The war department sets aside
S22 q month from such q soldiers
pay and contributes the rest. A man
with q wife and two children would
thus be assured that his dependents
would receive $72 O month, the gov
eminent contributing $50. II he
wished, he could add to that an al'
lotment from his pay, provided that
he left himself at least $40 o
month.
Soldiers above the grade Of line
sergeant are not granted family
allowances but may make voluntary
allotments through the oDB.
