Terminal Leave PAY
For Gls Is Opposed
By Budget Bureau
Chuirmun Of House Unit
Which Approved Bill
To Continue Fight
By Miriom Ottenbero

The Budget Bureau has gone
on record against giving enlisted
men terminal leave pay like that
given to officers on a retroactive
basis. it was learned today.
The House Military Affairs Com
mittee, with. which the Budget Bu-
reau report was filed, has not yet
acted on it and Chairman May re-
fused to comment on what effect
the Budget Bureaus adverse report
may have on legislation favored by
a House Military Subcommittee.
Fight to Be Continued.
Chairman Skies of the subcommit-
tee which approved the bill to give
enlisted men up to 120 days OF
terminal leave pay, said he would
continue to push for its enactment
Naturally. we prefer favorable
report from the Budget Bureau
Mr.. Skies declared, "but an un-
favorable report is not going to stop
us. We think we can pass it."
The pending bill would set up
the terminal leave pay on retro
active basis so that men now out
Of the service would get the accrued
leave pay.
The amount of leave they were
given in the service would be. de-
Quoted from the 120 days. Oppo-
nents of the legislation contend
that the War Department does not
have complete records on the leave
the men were given during service.
Cost Also Major Argument.
Cost of the legislation also is a
major argument of those opposing
the bill. 1t was understood, however,
that the estimates of cost given by
the Budget Bureau were consider
ably higher than that estimated by
the War Department.
The War Department has gone on
record in favor of terminal leave
pay for enlisted men on the ground
that some officers get both muster
ing out and terminal leave pay
while enlisted men get only muster
ing out pay, ranging up to $500.

Warsaw Termed a Fortress.
The marshal said he commanded
