GRANT FURLOUGH SO
SOLDIER CAN WORK
AND PAY GOVERNMENT
Waller C. Gaffney Affected
by Most Unusaal Rale
Takes Civilian Job.
Because of nn airventh hour decision
of the comptroller of the currency which
held that certain enlisted men of the
army owed the Kovernment money be-
cause their pay had not been reduced
several months ago. Walter C. Oaff-
ney a termer sergeant at Kelly Field
who ia now a private has been grant
cd a three-montha furlough to go out
in eivil life nnd make money to pay
back the government and support his
family.
The decision which is characterixcd
as very unusual by army officers has
resulted in several former non-commis-
sioned officers having to pay back to
the government the difference between
the pay of their lower grade ami what
they have received.
An act passed by congress only al-
lowed for a certain percentage of non-
commisisoned officers.
All of the surplus grades were re
duecd in rank but officers ear that
congress clearly intended that their
pay was to continue until the end of
their enlistment as these men were per-
forming the duties of their former
grades. No question was ever raiser! in
the army about the continuance of the
former pay until the decision of the
comptroller which held that a particu-
lar non commissioned officer owes the
government money which he should not
have’ been paid. As a result in many
cases the soldiers were unable to pay.
In the ease of Gaffney during the
next five months of his enlistment he
would receive n total of sl7u. He owes
the government $l5lO. In the meantime
