In response to a number of inquiries about the $60 bonus to be paid to soldiers discharged since April 6, 1917, Colonel Goetz stated yesterday that it is applicable to all men who have served in the Student Army Training Corps.

Those who have been discharged and have received their final pay without the $60 bonus should write a letter to the Zone Finance Officer, Lemon Building, Washington, D. C., stating their service since April 6, 1917; the date of last discharge; and their present address to which they desire their bonus check to be sent. They should enclose in this letter their discharge certificate, or military order for discharge, or both, if both were issued.

Checks Mailed in Shortest Time Possible

Upon the receipt by the Zone Finance Officer of this information, and discharge certificate, this officer will cause checks to be drawn and mailed to the claimants in the order in which their claims were received by him. The discharge certificate will be returned to each man with his check.

It is estimated that at least one million and a quarter persons have been discharged from the service who are entitled to the benefits of this act and while payments will be made as expeditiously as possible it will manifestly take considerable time to write and mail this many checks.
