Questions and Answers
On Servicemen's
Problems
BY LARSEN

WASHINGTON.-Here r som,
more questions from veterans re
garding their terminal leave pay
applications:
Q-I would like to know it re
tirement furlough and so-called TO
rational leaves or furloughs should
be counted as regular leave ir
figuring out how much terminal
leave you have coming?
A-Both are considered as ordi.
nary furlougA or leave.
Q-What about travel time In
figuring terminal leave?
A-The official ruling on this
says that when no travel time was
allowed in addition to the speci.
fled furlough as shown on indi-
vidual orders, such time is
charged as part Of the furlough.
For example, if the order said Is
days Of furlough time plus an adj
ditional authorized absence of four
days for travel time, then the Is
days is charged as leave and the
four days are not.
Q-HoW about service in the
ASTP and VIZ? Did a man &C.
cumulate leave while in one OF
these programs? ...
A-No.
CIT is still not too clear to
me about the leave L got when
returned from overseas. What is
HE official regulation on that?
A-For a time special furloughs
sometimes referred to as "recu-
peration furloughs" we're being
given to men returning from at
least six months overseas duty.
Officially these were called tenn
porary duty" so the m e n could
continue to get certain allowances.
Some men were given 80 days,
some Is. Any of this time specifi-
cally des ignated r Temporary
duty" is not counted against fur.
Tough time.
Q-Was the boot" leave they
gave us after finishing basic train.
ing in the Navy considered official
leave?
Ayes. And the leave given
after the completion of basic train
ing in the Army is also considered
as official leave.

Industry Says Soap
IWiII Be Hard 10 Get
For Many Months
By fhs Aneeiassd Press

| NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-Soap will
stay on the hard-to-get list for
months to come, industry sources
predict.
Soap supplies are said to be lower
than at any time during the war,
and producers do not expect much
improvement at least until the first
of the year.
Never before has the modern
soap industry faced the scarcity OF
fats 1t does today" a spokesman
said.
Price Uncertainty Cited.
The current period of price un-
certainty has aggravated an al
ready acute situation and in recent
weeks producers have not been
able to buy enough fats to meet
their allowable 78 per cent of
average 1940-41 use, he said. add
ing:
Output has dropped to probably
about half what the public would
buy if the industry could get sup
plies"
Settlement OF the pricing of fats
should improve the supply some
what, but producers warn that the
outlook is not too bright.
The world supply of fats is short
and large quantities of edible fats
are being diverted to the relief of
famine areas.
The soap industry, however, has
been helped greatly by the wartime
habit of turning in used household
fats to the butcher.
Fat Salvage Urged.
Turning in of fats has had a big
effect on the amount of soap that
has been available" one spokesman
said. IF fat salvage increases, the
supply of soap also will increase"
One Nationwide retail chain said
the most acute shortage is in yellow
household soaps, that soap chips
and powder are next, and toilet
soaps are the easiest to get.
A producer, however, said the
shortage is equally acute in all types.
Fancy soap is so small part Of
the total that it is not worth talking
about" he said.
