Discharge Point System
I'm Army TO Remain Same
Will Be Revised
When 800, 1000 Men
Have Been Let Out

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-(AP)-The
Army announced today the present
point sccore for discharge will be
left at IS while about 100000 men
with that score are being released.
Later the score will be revised to
provide for the discharge Of another
700, 900 men by June |, 1916, the date
bv which the Army had announced
a total Of 100000 men would be
discharged under the credit point
system.
In announcing this, Secretary OF
Wan StimSon said he could not say
now when the new score would be
given. The War Department pre-
viously had stated it expected to
announce the new critical score, win
points slightly lower than the pres
ent figure, sometime in July.
Stimson said that at the time OF
the revision Of points to provide 10Y
discharge of the 700, GOODMAN group,
= new Computation Of Individual
scores would be made to give SOL
diers credit for service after May
II, l945. This was the Qate TO WAlcn
credit points ran under the original
interim score of IS. This new COM
putation. Stimson said, will allow
some men who would not have had
enough points by the computation
of last May to earn their discharge
by their service between then and
the time of the new computations.
This. he told a news conference
will obviously give the advantage
of battle credit and overseas credl'
TO troops in the Pacific" Whatever
the new score, Stimson said, it VII
not affect the right to discharge o
those who previously qualllled Ul-
der the May of 50. II they nave
not already been discharged Whef
the new score goes into effect, ne,
will remain eligible for release "a
the earliest opportunity" A-x.
