Charles B Neely, of f icer-in-charge of the St aid today .that several false id eas had been spread during recent weeks concerning enlistment stan- dards in the Navy, and issued a statement to celar up the misun dering. ;; -vviV ; "All recruits in the Navy," he said, are allowed compensation for their dependents, whether they be ' the recruit's wife., mother or father orallthreet "The lowest base pay of any Na vy man is $50 per month. That is drawn by the apprentice seamen, v who is equal to a private in the Army V; "For the man who enlists as an : apprentice seamen, an allowance of $50 per month is available for his wife. Just as in any other ser vice, $22 of that is taken from the recruit's pay, and the government adds another. $28. That is true in - the Army, Navy, Marince Corps or uoast uuara. . -Another misunderstanding con : cemed the eligibility or men about to be drafted. "A man may volun- , teer for the Navy up until the time of his actual induction into the army. If he is in Class 1-A even it he hasjust been reclassified to th at group he needs no release from his draft board. , . . "However, it is wise to volunteer at least three days before date of induction, so that enlistment can be completed before time of induc tion." :" : Married men are eligible for en listment in the Naval Reserve. Al so, men who have false teeth will be accepted if they are otherwise in good condition. Lt. Neely pointed out that many ; men who once were rejected by the Navy now may be eligible toe enlistment. "Physical requireme nts have been considerably modifi ed," he said, "especially concern ing eyesight and teeth.'! , It no longer is a prerequisite to have a high school education. Men who can think clearly and quickly, and who can read and write legib ly easily can qualify for enlistme nt ln the Navy, and enjoy the ad vantages which were held open for high school graduates.

Certifica tion blanks may be obtained from postoffices, garages and filling sta tions and must be mailed to the local rationing boards. Directions were given for com plying with the government's idle tire purchase plan to remove all but the allowed five tires from private garages, with the Railway Express Agency designated as the government's agent for collection of the tires. "If you call the company and tell them you have tires for Uncle Sam, the express man will call for and pick them up if you live in his pick-rUp service area. He will give ydu a receipt for them and a form to fill out saying whether you wish to give the tires to the government or whether you wish to be paid for them. ' . "If you choose to be paid you will have a choice of receiving your money by U. S. Treasury check or in war bonds and stamps at ceiling prices set for all tires and tubes less the cost of any necessary re pairs to make your tires usable Only usable tires are wanted but difficult repairs will be undertaken if they appear to be worthwhile, otherwise you will be paid the sc rap rubber price for your tire.
