Three solutions were submitted by ‘Gen, Walker as to just what was the fun trouble and the remedy which would correct it. They ave: (a) Elimipate “entirely the dependent mothér from the act of June 10, 1932. (b) Place the determination of what constitutgs dependency in the -hands of the ry of War and make Ech det h.uuon final and eoncl(n-) ive upon t! wflu“ . (¢) Eliminate all dependency from the act of June 10, 1922, and for the services he s as such, the pay aceording to grade and 1 of service to be that now preseri for officers with dependents. The only difficulty of any conse- juence encountered by the War De- partraent, in the opinion of the Secre- tary of War, I8 in’connection with the disbursement to officers on ac- dount of dependent mothers, but this trouble, it is contended by Secretary Davis, has- been removed by the act of May 26, 1926, which defines very specifically the requirements for de- ermination constitutes Y “There ap to exist the idea,’ the seenur‘y’“:fld in discussing this subject, “that the pay act of 1022 riminatory in charact since money from the Government officers of similar or higher rank who have no dependents. And this appears to constitute the principal argument in_favor of amendatory tion that would change the pay act so that all officers, regardiess of whether or net they have dependents, would receive the same amount of money from the Governmeft. Such'idea #nd such argument are, in my opin- fon, without much merit. The basic verdt I pay 1s the same, regardless of wheth- er or pot they have dependents. It is the allowances—rental and subsist. ence allowances on account of de- pendents—that makes the difference er | in the amount of money received by different officers in the same or dif- account of all the services that would be entailed by this proposed amend. atory on would amount to $1,500,000, and in view of the Govern- ment's economy program. the Secre. ‘tary feels that it would be unwise to seek: this additional riation for the pay of the Army at this time. ‘With the announcement of a gen- eral policy relative to applications of ‘West Point graduates to resign from the service immediately following their graduation, or prior to the ex- piration of the eight years they have agreed to serve, the Secretary of War has served solemn notice on the pres- ent undergraduate body at the United States Military Academy that they will be held to the strict observance of their agreement. Only under very exceptional circumstances are the res. ignations of newly graduated cadets accepted by the War Department. As vas pointed out last week, it is felt in the department that any.cadet who requests that he be separated from the active rolls of the regular estab- lishment " following his graduation is not only breaking his contract with the Government to serve for eight vears, four years as cadet and four the fact that he is turn to the Gove: for four long expense, maintai emy and given hi which few educationsl institutions in the United States can provide.

A rulling just made by the Con- roller General will not permit warrant officera of the Marine Corps who have had service as fleld clerk, Quarter- master's Department, to’ count that service for longevity pay purposes as warrent officers in the Marine Corps. The question submitted to the controller, by the paymaster of the Marine Corps was whether Marine Corps warrant officers could count such service under the act of April 27, 1926, which authoriged the ap- rlnlmnt of Army fleld clerks and leld cleaks, Quartermaster Corps, now in active service, as.warrant of- ficers, and which authorized the counting of prior service as Army field clerks, Quartermaster Corps, and all classified fleld service rendered as headquarters clerks of the Quarter- masters Corps in computing their longevity pay. ‘The contention was 1hade that the longevity pay of warrant officers of the Marine Corps is assimilated with ing of April 27, 1926, should entit! \:l.lnfln' s fleld clerks in Y t Marine for longe: m‘l It ‘was held by the Con- Mmlwm‘ tMA‘lc':! fl:lx‘ to o clerka and that it does not extend to ‘warrant rs, generally in the Army, and that it does not apply to warrant officers in the Marine Corps..
