Burma Theater
Is Sending Home
Big Sum Monthly
Myitkyina, North Burma iipl
Anybody who thinks the Ameri
can soldier in the Burma-India
theater is playing loose with his
paycheck should take a look at
the books In the Myitkyina post
office they show the GIs are
sending, home about $380,000 a
month in money orders.
One day recently the total sale
of money orders amounted to
$53,616, according to Lt. Sentile
A. Rommel, Hempsted, N Y
Myitgyina postal officer. And he
pointed out, that's just one armv
post office. J
Besides money, the American
soldiers In Burma are sending
home a lot of packages, Rommel
said. The average day of outgoing
mail is 48 sacks of parcels and 16
sauna ui inuers. An average day's
sale of stamps to go on packages
amounts to about $2,200, he said

ler, officer In charge of the Ore
gon navy recruiting district, cm-
phaslzed In a statement Issued
this week that the navy is still
accepting 17-ycar-old volunteers.
Hundreds of telephone calls I
have come Into the Recruiting sta-1
tions throughout Oregon from 17- j
year-olds and their parents who
misunderstood the army-navy an- i
nouncempnt and wpn nf the nnin. '
ion that all ftavy enlistments had
been stopped. .
"The joint service order affects
only those in the 18, 19 and 20-
year groups," Lt. Cmdr. Biehler
stated, "and therefore does not
change the navy's policy of ac
cepting 17-year-olds and men over
37 for voluntary enlistment."
The recruiting officer also
stated that men of draft age who
can qualify for the navy's radio
technician program (radar) will
continue to be given letera of di
rected assignment to the Joint In
duction board at Ft. Lewis, Wash
ington and .will automatically be
Inducted into the navy.
. The same process applies to
those of draft age who qualify
for the air combat crewman and
seabee programs of the navy Lt.
Cmdr. Biehler said.
