G000 INDORSES " HEHER ARMY PAY Secretary, However, Reports Unfavorably Against - Uniform Bill. Expressing his first public opinion on the “present inadequate compensation of the officers of the Army,” Secretary ©f War Good has written a letter to Representative W. Frank James of Michigan reporting unfavorably cn the uniform allowance bill now under oon- sideration by the House committez on military affairs. “This bill,” Mr. Good said, “would Serve the laudable purpose of increas- | ing somewhat the present inadequate | tompensnmm of officers of the Aimy. | It i8 believed, however, to be of too limited application to fully me:t pres- | down ent requi emenu would discriminate in favor of one of the uniform serv- dces now covered by the joint pay act. and would greatly increase the com- lication which now confronts us in umtmstrmon of law prescribing nu 'n u bellend that the necessity of the Government and these individuals would be best served by making the uy of omcer- adequate to meet all which they are subjected, !ncludtng that of uniforms. The raan- ner of revising existing rates of pay w provide adequate rompensation for “ purposes is now under considera- on “In view of the reasons above stated, | I am corstrained to recommend agains: an enactment of -H. R. 703 as a sepa- rate measure at this time in anticipa- tion of the cost of uniforms and equip- ment being considered along with other 's when general pay legislation is undertaken.” Mexican I';oot Ball Game Makes Fan Of President Gil ‘k “Tremendous!” says Na- tion’s Executive, When University Eleven De- feats Champs.
