According to OWI announcements a private makes the equivalent of $1700 yearly, t- so-calle- ttoit d. Figured in the total amount are care, quarters, food, and amounts saved through GI insurance, PX purchases, laundries, and barber shops in addition to the cash income. Soldiers cash Income at $50 per month nets $600; food, figured at $1.50 a day, $574.50; barracks shelter, $10 monthly, $120; equipment and replacement, $170; medical, dental, and hospital care, $100; saved on life insurance $63.40, saved on cigarets, $10.95; saved on laundry, $32.50; saved on postage and barber charges $28.65. All of which amount to approximately $1700.
