For Better Budgeting

Certain Navy, Marine Units

To Test 'Two-Week' Pay Call Would you like to have 26 in-

stead of 24 paydays every year, even if the checks are a bit smaller each time?

A Navy and Marine Corps test of a payday every other Friday will begin July 13 and run six months, according to a Navy Times story this week.

Test units will include some ships in the Atlantic Fleet cruiser-destroyer and service forces, the Naval Air Technicat Training Command, the Naval Air Facility at Andrews Field in Washington, a portion of the activities paid by the Navy Ac- counts Disbursing Office in San Diego and the 1st Marine Di- vision and most other Marine activities in the Camp Pendle- ton complex on the West Coast. The big advantage of the sys-

:em is that it puts money in a serviceman's pocket for every other weekend. Under the pres- TA twice-a-month system, not sly can payday be any day of e week, but sometimes a single

;ay must cover three weekends. If the system is practical and

is acceptable to Navymen and Marines, it probably will be adopted for use throughout the

Navy Department sometime in 1963.

The idea originated in the Ot- fice of the Navy Comptroller. Be- hind the idea is the theory that paying every two weeks will sim- plify money management for everyone, especially those in the

I lower pay grades, whether mar- 1 ried or single. The Comptroller also feels that the schedule will reduce the number of special pay chits handled by disbursing officers.

To get an idea of the possible acceptance of the system, representatives from the Comptroller's office talked to men in all pay grades, from admirals through seamen. They found that the smaller the individual's paycheck the more popular the idea was. As the amount of pay and the re- liance on allotments increases, the advantages seen by the individual for pay every two weeks de- crease, the survey showed.

In the higher grades the re- action is one of little concern from a personal standpoint, but approval, if it would make the juniors' pay more manageable. The lower grades were all for

Fulfilling Our SEATO Commitment The landing of 1800 Marines in Thailand to bolster the strength

of some 1000 U.S. troops already in that country on maneuvers will be welcomed by the seven nations that, with the United States, make up the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization. They will no

less applaud the formation of a U.S. Military Assistance Command in Thailand which was announced by Seeretaly of Defense Mc- Namara following President Kennedy's decision in his words, "to help insure the territoriai integrity of this peaceful country."

For Thailand, a SEATO member, is our friend and a bastion of freedom in a part of the world where the Communist cancer is

showing fresh malignancy. One of her borders faces troubled little Laos. racked again by fighting since the pro-Communist Pathet Lao forces of Prince Souphanouvong broke the cease-fire. That violation, as the President noted, made the dispatch of the Marines and Army and Air Force units desirable.

That we honor our defense commitments to the nations of the Free World who are our allies will not surprise them. Berli.o. is fresh in memory. and the issues there are far from settled. The new Thailand Command is a reaffirmation, of the spirit of the Manila Conference that created SEATO almost eight years ago. It is Free World might backing up our pledge on paper. And, as the President also noted, it is "wholly consistent with the United Nations Charter which specifically recognizes that nations have an inherent right to take collective measures for self defense."

Such a show of strength as the President has decided upon is. then, the best answer to the Asian Communists who hope to gain by tenacious nibbles what they cannot have in a single slashing bite. "A threat to Thailand is of grave concern to the United States," said the President, and the Marines who landed at Bangkok were personifications, each and every man, of our commitment. (AFPSI

- pm, June I, 1962

By Chaplain W. J. McConnell

The month of June according to the fabled lore of antiquity and also according to contemporary advertising is famous for wed- dings. Yet underneath the super- ficial veneer of what must be purchased, what must be worn and what must be served, there is no hint of the sacrifices that must be made to insure the success of this marital union. Too many television and motion picture romances make the transition from the reel world to the real world almost too much to bear.

All too often, two young people who are about to commence the most important step in their lives, forget to share it with Our Lord who said "Without me you can do nothing." This couple falls to realize that the future of their country and the world itself cannot be strong unless the family, the basic unit of society, remains firm and in- violate. Often it seems odd or old-fash-

ioned for our present generation to make any sacrifices. We hear so much concerning the easy way as a norm that we become ob- livious to the fact that important events in every life require and demand sacrifices.

Too many families today are being destroyed by the unwilling- ness of one or both of the parties to sacrifice. Children, the most precious gifts of matrimony, are often used as ping pong balls bouncing from one spouse to the other or as weapons whereby one parent may threaten the other.

Surely when one looks at the deleterious effects of di- vorce and separation from any viewpoint whatsoever - be It religious, economic, soda/ or military - it is not difficult to ascertain that something is rad- ically wrong both with our ideals and our ideas. Adequate planning and prepa-

ration is a prerequisite to attain any objective. Those contemplat- ing marriage need all the moral and religious resources that they

i can muster to become one in ,

mind, one in heart and one in af-1 fection. Matrimcniy is too important to be dependent upon a

whim. Advice should be sought from

those who possess similar religious and economic backgrounds. Saint Paul compares the love of a husband for his wife with the love that Our Lord had for his church. Surely there can be no finer example of love for those about to be married, for those newly wed and for those who have partaken of the marital bles- sings for many years.

Amphib Training

At LFTU 'Li! Creek Twenty thousand Arn-y troop-

ers from six major Army installations throughout the country will report to the U.S. Naval Amphib- ious Base, Little Creek, Va., this summer and fall to be trained in the latest amphibious assault techniques developed by the Navy- Marine Corps team.

The move is designed to de- velop an effective amtphibious Army. The training, one of the largest

joint-service operations ever held at the Little Creek base, will provide instruction and practical work in the shore-based and afloat preparation for a successful landing.

U.S. Army Battle Groups, comprised of infantry, artillery, cavalry, armor and combat en- gineers from many areas, will participate. Divided into 10 periods, the

training began early last month and will continue through mid- October.

Navy and Marine Corps personnel, with long experience in amphibious assault, will instruct the soldiers in the latest techniques, culminating each training period with an over-the-beach mnhibini 1, assault from chips of

a Navy task force.

It is strange how death often gives birth to an idea -art idea that may often save the lives of many persons later. Death on the highways gave rise to the idea of seat belts in automobiles.

So it was at Cherry Point when the death of a Navy Pilot gave rise to the idea of a training rig that could well save the lives of Navy and Marine pilots. The idea for the training device,

dubbed "parachute descent rig," is the brain child of GySgt. Raymond C. Sanders and Cpl. Andrew Pu- glise, both of the H&M5-14's flight equipment section.

Formulation of the idea began when the flight equipment section received a bulletin stating that a Navy pilot had drowned as a result

of his rip cord not being discon- nected after the pilot had entered the water.

The pilot had turned loose of the parachute canopy snap; but the rio cord had remained intact, causing him to be dragged in the water to his death.

GySgt. Sanders decided to work on a design for a rig that could be used in training Marine pilots. To his knowledge there is no other such rig now in existence.

GySgt. Sanders drew up plans for his rig and took them to the H&MS-14 metal shop. In a few days the shop came up with exactly what Sanders wanted. The new rig consisted of four

metal bars joined together to form a square. It was suspended by four cables which enabled the rig to be used on a standard hoist. The completed rig performed the function of the parachute canopy.

GySgt. Sanders then had Cpl. Puglise design and make four long risers with quick release connectors. When finished, the risers resembled the regular straps on a parachute. For two weeks, flight equipment

personnel conducted tests of the rig with Cpl. Puglise acting as the "gueina pilot." After nine satis- factory mock ejections, the rig was considered a success and was presented to the squadron and group COs for approval.

Both agreed the rig was terrific and set up a schedule to train MAG-14 pilots. Plans for the rig were sent to the Wing flight equipment office for evaluation.

Training with the rig is conducted in distinct phases. First, a pilot is booked up in his own torso harness to the rig. He com- mences the post ejection pro- ceedures of separating from the ejection seat. On separation, the automatic parachute release is actuated and the parachute canopy is deployed. At the completion of this action in a real situation, the pilot would float down from the sky. To similate the parachute de-

scent, the pilot is hoisted into the air by the rig to a height of about two feet. While suspended in the air, the pilot then goes through the next phase of training by com- pleting the following steps: release rip cord; removes oxygen mask (after oxygen supply diminshes); disconnects seat pan hose; releases his left leg rocket jet fitting and

I risers simultaneously, and in-

flates his life preserver. This releases the pilot from the rig and he lands on the floor. Once on the ground, the pilot follows his raft th_ cfre. his raft container, inflates his raft and climbs aboard. This completes the training cycle. During the first few months of

training with the new rig, one important factor has come to light. Some pilots have found that they were wearing mis-fitting torso harnesses. Who knows, this dis- covery alone may be enough to save the pilot's life.

NEW TRAINING RIG - Capt. Louis C. Pritchett of VMA-242 hangs suspended from the "parachute descent rig" which has been incorporated in the training of all pilots of MAG-I4 at Cherry Point. The rig was the brain-child of GySgt. Raymond C. Sanders of H&MS-14 flight equipment section. With the rig, pilots can go through all the steps that have to be completed while descending after ejecting.

"But .perhaps his bigges, asset is patience," says the Dien Bien Phu veteran. "The Red Laotian soldier, The Pathet Lao, has none of that 'significant drive' you'll find in a Western fighter. There is no compulsion to smash in, clean up and get on with the war to get it over.

"The Pathet Lao thinks nothing of crawling on his belly for days at a time. He lives off a handful of cold rice as he goes, and can cover eight to 10 miles a day, slithering along like a snake.

"He rarely makes a sound. He'll 'freeze' so still in the face of danger, you may well step on him before you know you're in the middle of a war party. But then it's like stepping on a train of ants. You may collar a ha.Ad- ful in the immediate vicinity, but even as you're capturing them, you can hear the others scuttling off in the bush." (AFPS)

13,000 Hours

Accident-Free Pilots ane crewmen of the Bri-

gade's Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron-161 completed two years of accident-free flying last Sunday.

The record exceeds that of any other helicopter unit bailed on Oahu.

The industrious squ a dr on logged more than 13,083 hours in the air during the two-year period, f l y i n g OE observation planes, and HRS and HUS heli- copters.

HMM-161 is the Brigade's only helicopter squadron, currently op- erating with an average of 15 aircraft and 33 pilots. Its main mission is transporting Brigade infantrymen in carrying out the Marine Corps' vertical assault doctrine.

Over the past two years the squadron has accumulated many impressive statistics. '161 has car- ried more than 40,000 Marines, 5500 passengers and 1000 VIPs who occasionally visit the commands.

In public service, the flying workhorses spent almost 400 hours in the air on 220 search end rescue missions. Cargo, such as artillery pieces,

radar equipment and supplies for field training maneuvers have also been heli-lifted - more than 443 tons of it.

At least once a year the squadron participates in aircraft car- rier qualifications aboard special- ly designed helicopter assault ships. The squadron has operated aboard the USS Princeton, Kear- sarge, Thetis Bay and Benning- ton.

Four months of last year, from April to July were spent on Oki- nawa in support of elements of the Brigade and the 3d Marine Division during an earlier flare- up in Southeast Asia.

The squad: on strongly empha- sizes night-flying and spends almost a quarter of its flight hours in night training operations.

Now piloting HUS-type 'copters which can carry up to 12 Ma- rine infantrymen and their equipment, the squadron is commanded by LtCol. L. V. Tope.

Two weeks of dust-filled training at the sometimes frosty !')o- hakuloa training area came to an ear-splitting climax for infantrymen of 2/4 as air, artillery and ground elements of the Brigade unleashed their might during day and night firing demonstrations last week.

Settled on a lofty loaf of volcanic rock, 2/4 Leathernecks saw just exactly the type and amount of support they could expect in combat.

From their 400-foot high "au- ditorium" in the saddle between the Big Island's largest volcanoes, they received a bird's-eye view of air, artillery and demolitive action taking place in the desolate impact area below.

The battalion had spent the past two weeks engaged in company and battalion-size field maneuvers. The demonstration of fire support - staged both during daylight and piten-black

as close to an situation as im-

night - was actual combat aginable. Kirkinoo off the show, three

A4D "Skyhawk" bombers from VMA-212 deliv ered powerful punches with napalm, bombs and 20mm cannon fire. Both high- altitude and close-to-the-ground delivery of ordnance was used. Aircraft were directed on their runs by Capt. 0. C. Baker, 2/4's forward air controller.

Following the Skyhawk at- tacks, booming howitzers of "H" Battery, 3/12, began a steady vol- ley of 105mm shells, both high explosive and white phosphorus, blasting from a range of more

than two miles. "H" Battery, is normally com-

mitted to support 2/4 in training. Their role in the demonstration was a vital one.

A squad from "B" Co., 3d Pio- neer Battalion, provided a real- istic show of its own destructive powers by simulating an attack on a fortified position which had been strengthened with mine emplacements and long strings of concertina wire. The finale to their demonstration was total de- struction of the position with a 15-pound satchel charge.

During the evening show, 2/4 Leathernecks watched in awe as A4Ds repeatedly hit the target, guided only by conversa- tion with the forward air controller. One Skyhawk dropped flares which illuminated the impact area with light equal to one million candlepower. The other two jets swooped down in close for bombing and rocket runs. To provide a show of all-out

firepower available to and used by one rifle company, "H" Co. 2/4 joined "H" Battery 3/12 and sections of H&S Co. 2/4 in a con- tinuous 10-minute display of con- centrated fire power.

As the howitzers lofted 500,000 - candlepower illumination flares and began dropping a barrage of shells, "H" 2/4 poured out thou- sands of rounds from rifles, BARs and machine guns.

Mortar and 106mm recoilless rifle fire from H&S 2/4 completed the composite cannonade.

Colonel Allan Sutter, 4th Ma- r Ines Commanding Officer, commenting on the firing exercise. said: "The live-firing demonstration was exceptional- ly effective in showing the tre- mendous amount of support

which can be brought to bear by the Marine Collis air-ground team.

"I know the infantry was particularly impressed by the close air support aircraft and organic weapons of the infantry battalion."

Thursday morning, Brigadier General Keith B. McCutcheon, Brigade Commander, joined Colonel Sutter at the Pohakuloa base camp to visit and observe Marines in the field.

With the general, who piloted a HMM-161 helicopter from K-Bay to the Big Island, was Capt. W. A. Roble, USN, Bri- gade Surgeon; Maj. L. R. Webb, 4th Marines S-3; Sergeants Ma- jor W. G. McElliot, Brigade, and J. Puterbaugh, 4th Marines; and MGySgt. N. H. Adams, Regimental S-3 Chief.

The morning was spent viewing segments of 2/4 as they wrapped up the final stages of their two-week training. In the afternoon after a briefing by 3/12 officers, Gen. McCutcheon visited battery emplacements in the training area.

During a visit to "H" Battery, the general's party and the battery were surprised by an "ag- gressor guerrilla" attack on the position. Aggressors attempted to destroy the gun site and overtake the troops with a gas attack, but were quickly subdued.

The 2nd Battalion returned to K-Bay last Friday. It was re- placed at Pohakuloa by 1/4. In- crements of 3/12 will return today, followed by the rest of the battalion Tuesday.

SHIPPIN' IN THE FIELD - LtCol. C. D. Rowe, 2/4 CO (I), re- enlists IstSgt. A. A. Davis (c) of "F" Co. and Pfc. W. H. Winn of "G" Co. during training at Pohakuloa. Davis reenlisted for three years, Pfc. Winn for sig.

LAST HITCH - GySgt. G. Aranjo, "G" Battery 3/12, is con- gratulated by BrigGen. K. B. McCutcheon after reenlisting for six

years at Pohakuloa last Thursday. The Brigade CG reenlisted the I4 -year veteran on the spot during training exercises in the field.

BIG ISLE AMPHITHEATER-2/4 infantrymen dot the side of Puu Menehune in the Pohakuloa training area as they watch a Howtar fire into the impact area. The Howtar, which had been heli-lifted to a

firing site, was part of the artillery demonstration staged for the Leathernecks by 3/12.

a night firing exercise at Pohakuloa last week. Colonel Allan Suffer, 4th Marines CO, was on hand to view the demonstration.

third. In the eighth, Army's Bob Davis broke the game wide open with an inside-the-park homer. Five runs piled up in that inning to cinch the Army win.

John Spar dont lead the Leatherneeka in batting with his three hits. Still smarting from the de-

feat, the Ma: Ines met leading SubPac Friday night in the con- tinuation of their protested May 1 game plus a regularly scheduled game.

Play in the protested game started in the top of the seventh with the score at 7-5 in the Raid- ers' favor. Neither team scored in the remaining innings and SubPac won.

STRAINING FOR FIRST - Lynn Mayhan of the Hawaii Marines drives hard for second place in the 220-yd. run in last Saturday's Hawaii AAU track and field meet. Tom Randolph, Army, (closest to camera} edges Mayhan and wins the event in 22.5 seconds.

I RECORD BREAKER - Aubrey Dooley sails over the bar for a

new Hawaii State AAU pole vault record of I4-ft. 6-one fourth-in. Dooley then tried for 15' but failed to clear in three attempts.

Kaneohe Track Stars Shine in State An Meet Aubrey Dooley set a new Ha-

waii AAU record in the pole vault event at last Saturday's Hawaii AAU track and field championships.

Dooley vaulted 14-ft. 61/4 -in. to smash the old record of 14-ft. 3/4- in., set by George Appel, of the Spikesters, in 1958.

It was one of only two state AAU records to fall in last weekend's meet.

New Zealand's John Davies and Murray lialberg gave the crowd of 1500 spectators a fine exhibition of rurrninc, compet- ing as guest runners in the mile and two mile races, respective- ly. University of Hawaii's Allan

Birtles smashed the only state AAU record (besides Dooley's) to fall. Running behind Davies in the mile, he turned in a time of 4:13 to better his own state record of 4:23.7 made April 14.

Davies did the mile in 4:11.6.

Birtles. a 6-ft. 6-in. basket- ball star, also finished second in the two-miler. Ile came from dead last in a field of 18 to beat out Harold Cole for the second place slot.

Dooley and other K-Bay track and field stars joined with the other services to form the Armed Forces team that swept the. meet. They piled up 81 points com- pared to second place Spikesters 50 and University of Hawaii's 45.

The K-Bayites made their presence known although they were involved in only two other first place finishes.

In the 880-yd. relays, K- Bay's Lynn Mayhan anchor- manned the winning Armed Foires team that won the event in 1:30.0. Mayhan also ran the 220-yd.

run, finishing second behind Tom Randolph, Armed Services. He finished fourth in a "photo-finish" in the 100-yd. dash. The out-

come of this race was so close it had to be decided from a "picture -in -a- minute" ph o t o g r aph taken of the finish.

In the one mile relay, "M" 3/4's Rudolpf Muse joined other service runners Dennis Green. Allen Nash and Felton Tate to bring the baton across the finish line in 3:36.8, to ih the event. Orville Flynn, VMF-232, fin-

ished second in the 880-yd. run behind Sai Lit Ching, University of Hawaii.

K-Bay's Larry Nelson, "I" 3/12. took second in the javelin throw. He was bested by Richard Man- ning, of the Spikesters, who threw the spear 181-ft. 6-in.

In the 120-yd. high hurdles, Carl Johnson, "D" 1/4. finished a close second behind the 16- second winning time of Rod Crayton, also of the Armed Forces team. The Hawaii AAU champion-

ships were held at Punahou's Alexander Field. It was the last meet of the Hawaii track and field season.

K-Bay's Hawaii Marine team was formed late in the season and competed in only a few meets. Considering the late start by the Leathernecks, the team piled up a number of "in-the- money" finishes.

T#1 - Samar - Well troops, back to the Philippines, but let's do it the easy way -- via this film. Gilbert Roland is in charge of Samar, a penal colony where political prisoners are sent.' George Montgomery, a playboy and soldier of fortune, is sent to Samar after being involved in a shooting. Also sent to the colony is lovely Ziva Rodann, daughter of a Spanish official, with whom Montgomery falls in love. Meanwhile, Nico Minardos, a Spanish captain, comes to in- spect the colony, but Roland overtakes him and his crew. He forces them to join him and the inhabitants of Samar in search of a lost village and freedom from Spanish domination. Good adventure.

T#2 - Guns of Fort Petticoat. SATURDAY

Matinee - Submarine Seahawk -The last time this sub surfaced around these parts was about a month ago. It's another sea story that comes out of World War II about a special mission the Sea- hawk undertakes to locate part of the Japanese fleet. The crew dislikes their commander, John Bentley, and further dislikes his waiting to attack the enemy until the last minute. They later understand his actions and he gains their respect.

Ttl Walk on the Wild Side - Talk about your roaring 20s, here's some wild scenes from the 30s. Laurence Harvey, a Texas farmer, thumbs his way to New Orleans in search of his former girl riend, Capucine. He gets word of Capucine's life in a bawdy house operated by Bar- bara Stanwyck. The action mounts when Harvey tries to get her to come back to him. Adding to this honky-tonk tale are Anne Baxter and Jane Fonda. Blunt dialog, cruelty and lust make this strictly for adults.

Tit 2 --Samar. SUNDAY

Matinee - Lawless Street - Sounds like there's a dead-end to this street so we're detouring. No info on this plot, but it sounds western and should provide an action-packed afternoon for young cowpokes.

T #1 - Mr. Sardonicus - You've heard of the beaut' and the beast. Well this pic has most- ly beasts. Ronald Lewis, working in a London hospital, is invited by former girlfriend Audrey Dal- ton, to her castle in Bohemia. There Lewis meets her :,ealthy husband, Guy Rolfe, who wears a mask to cover his disfigured face. Rolfe wants Lewis to use mas- sage treatments on his face because his wife is frightened by his looks. Another nice guy is Oscar Homolka, a one-eyed doc- tor employed by Rolfe, who's hobby is torturing the servants. A good spine-tingler.

T#2--Wa/k on the Wild Side. MONDAY

Tgri- Six Black Horses - Audie Murphy on his way to a small Western town tries to join up with the cattle drive. He finds himself in trouble when he ropes a wild stallion to take the place of his lost horse. He's rescued by Dan Duryea from wranglers who want to string him up as a horse thief. The two become fast friends and ride off together. In town they're offered plenty of dough to escort Joan O'Brien through Indian territory to Mexico to join her husband. The plot takes sev- eral unexpected twists to keep the family's interest.

Tti2 - Mr. Sardonicus. TUESDAY

Tx 1 - Matter of Morals - We all know right from wrong, but :hese characters are all wrong- doers. Patrick O'Neal, an Amer- Call banker, goes to Stockholm

to verify details of a million- dollar loan to representatives of a factory. He meets manager Mogens Wieth, who with others

have been looting the firm's till. Costa Cederlund, ,factory owner and O'Neal's girl friend, must ip- sure her life in order to get the loan. Meanwhile, O'Neal falls in love with Maj-Britt Nilsson, Wieth's sister-in-law. It looks obvious what will happen, but unexpected events follow. Good adult movie.

T#2 - Six Black Horses. WEDNESDAY

T#1 - To Hell and Back - Audie Murphy knows the real meaning of this war drama's title. Not much info, but we understand it's the actual story of his combat experiencec during World War II, from which he emerged as one of the most decorated he- roes of our country. If it's not too glamourized by the film makers, it should be a good war pie.

T#2 - Matter of Morals. THURSDAY

T#1 - State Fair - It's the third film version of this musical, but loses the homey touch of Phil Strong's novel. Alice Faye and Tom Ewell are the farmer par- ents of Pat Boone and Pamela Tiffin. Pat's a speed demon entered in a sports car derby. Pam- ela falls in love with TV broad- caster Bobby Darin. Not up to its predecessors, but there's good music for an entertaining evening for the family.

Import Abuse Warning Told

Military Serving Overseas Military and civilian personnel

along with their dependents in overseas areas are being reminded of the temporary nature of the law which allows t ax-free im- portation of household goods, pri- vately owned automobiles and other personal property.

They are warned against abuse of the privileges granted by this law.

The law, unless extended, will expire this year and violations could result in the loss of these privileges by preventing either extension of this law or the passing of a permanent free-import law.

Commanders have been instructed to take necessary actioi; to assure that all personnel ship- ping personal property be reminded of their responsibilities. These persons are required to read and understand the con- tents of the Owners U.S. Customs Declaration and Entry and In- specting Officer's Certificate (DD Form 1252) which covers duty- free entry of such property.

Specifically, the commands are instructed to make persons

of ttta fart that they are not allowed to ship, duty free, any item as an accommodation

for others, or for sale, barter or exchange. Additionally, items shipped

must be only personal and household effects for the shipper's personal use or the use of members of his family who have been re- siding with him overseas.

Not only do such violations jeopardize the privilege, but persons making false statements on DD Form 1252 are subject to criminal prosecution under fed- eral law or the UCMJ, whichever is applicable. (AFPS)

. . . More Paydays Possible (Continued from P-1)

it, whether married or single. Thu point which seems to

make the proposal most desirable to the lower grades is the pros- pect of never having three weekends between paydays. Admin- istratively, the system would permit the scheduling of paydays for

Contestants

the entire year and thus make it possible to steer around holidays which, under the current system, sometimes delay paydays.

The system will not affect the allotments made by a man to his family and it will not change the basic monthly pay rate.

During the test period, which begins the second Friday in July, there will be no Friday holidays. However, in 1963 Washington's birthday falls on a Friday. Should the test system be made permanent, this payday will be scheduled for Feb. 21, one day early.

The law will not permit any advance pay except on permanent change of station orders. If the test system is adopted permanently, paymasters will keep at least one day's pay on each individual's account after each scheduled payday. With this system it will be pos-

sible to hold payday early when the scheduled day is a holiday. Such an early payday without a short check is not possible under the- current system because a full day's pay is not kept on each pay account.

This is how the system will work if it is adopted and goes into use next January. The first payday would be Friday, Jan. 11. The last payday in 1962 for test units would be Friday Dec. 28. On Jan. 11 the paymasters

would pay the rest of December's money and for 10 days in Jan- uary. This would leave the pay for Jan. 11 on the man's account.

He would get 14 days' pay on Jan. 25 and again on Feb. 8, but the next regular payday would be Feb. 22, another holiday. Be- cause there is already one day's pay on the books the paymaster could hold payday on Feb. 21- 13 days from the last payday- ano pay for a full 14 days without violating the law.

The next regular payday would be March 8-15 days after Feb. 21. Again the man would get 14 days pay and again would have his one day's pay back on fhe books.
