Through thousands of interviews
the Obj officers have found that
many persons become confused in
regard to their family allowances.
Seldom is there intent to defraud
the Government. 1t is primarily
a matter of understanding the law.
1t has been discovered that many
families actually are not getting as
much family allowance as they are
entitled to. Others are receiving
the benefit under the mistaken i'm
preston they are entitled to it when
they are not.
It narrowS down to a question
OF relationship and dependency. A
serviceman's wife and minor chill
dren are entitled to family allow
anceS, whether they are dependent
upon the serviceman for support or
not. Parents, brothers, sisters and
other relatives may receive the ben
eft only if they are actually de-
pendent upon the soldier.

1.-THE nations paper shortage has

waste baskets" says E. A. Schirmer.

which are collection depotS for waste
paper In the current Waste Paper
Baseball Jamboree, welcome bags
stuffed with paper scraps along with
the rest of the salvaged paper
brought in.
Paper is vital in any form. The
day is past when we can throw away
the occasional cardboard box, the
single sheet of writing paper, or the
handful of paper bags. The items
accumulate less rapidly than news
papers and magazines and it is more
trouble to prepare them for salvage.
But there's an easy way to do
it. Make your own paper baler. All
you need is corrugated box and a
ball of heavy string"
Cut two Sits about one inch deep
in each side flap and one slit in
each end flap of corrugated card
board box.
Place three pieces of cord inside
the box, with their ends through
tn Sits. Line the box with news
papers, placing the newspapers on
top of the cords. Dump your waste
basket scraps into the box and pack
them down tight until the box is
filled.
Lay a newspaper on top of the
packed-down scraps. Tie your bum
die tight, lift it out, and your box
IS ready to start again on fresh
waste basket collection.
Baseball tickets will be given out
for every $50 pounds brought in,
weekly totals recorded, and grand
prizes of War Bonds and auto
graphed baseballs awarded to the
top SO boys and 36 girls at the end
