RECRUITS' PAY.
STARTS NEXT TUESDAY. FOURTH REINFORCEMENTS. WELLINGTON, Thursday. Expeditionary Force recruits posted to the Fourth Reinforcements, who are out of employment through the delay, owing to the measles epidemic, in mobilising the reinforcements for training, will begin to receive military pay from next Tuesday. They will receive one week's pay on that day and thereafter be paid fortnightly, in accordance with normal army procedure. Pay granted will include sustenance and allowance for wives and children where applicable. To qualify for pay each recruit must produce a certificate from his former employer stating he is unable to provide the recruit with work, or, in the case of unemployed men, a similar certificate from the Social Security Dejwirtment. Men who have been re-engaged in civil occupations pending mobilisation will not be eligible for Army pay. Warrants for pay will be available at defence offices in the various military areas throughout the Dominion and may be cashed at any poet office.—,tP.res3 Assn.) ,
