By an Acts of Congress approved
February 28, 1910, "An enlisted man
honorably discharged from the
Army, Navy or Marine Corps since
November eleventh, nineteen hundred
and eighteen, or who may here
after be honorably discharged, shall
receive five cents per mile from the
place of his discharge to his actual
bona fide home or residence, or or
iginal muster into the service, at his
option: Provided, That for sea travel
on discharge, transportation and sub
sistence only shall be furnished to
enlisted men."
This act has been construed in part
as follows: "It is therefore conclud
ed that upon discharge, an enlisted
man should be paid five cents a mile
from place, of discharge to place of
original muster into the service and
if the place claimed to be that of his
actual bona Me home or residence
is at a greater distance, he can pre
sent a claim for the difference . be
tween that amount and the amount
pard him on discharge."
'' Those entitled to the extra pay
mentioned above, can secure the
necessary application . and affidavit
blanks at the Y. M. C. A. Ask for
the Secretary for Soldiers, Sailors
and Marines who is giving his full
time. Including evenings, to serving
enlisted and discharged men.
