Show ' Friday, June 17, 1966 Vol. No. 9 No. 23 Published for Dugway Proving Ground, Dugway, Utah Published by the Transcript-Bulleti- n Publishing Company, Tooele, Utah, a private firm, in no way connected with the Department of the Army. Opinions expressed by publisher and writ- ers herein are their own and are not to be considered an official expression by the Depart Gothing Cost To Increase Starting July 1 Savings Bond Campaign Is Extended The cost of 19 enlisted uniform items are expected to increase July 1, 1968 with several of the items, jumping more than 50 per cent above the current price. THE TOTAL cost of the clothing for enlisted personnel is expected to increase by more than 30 per cent going from the present $165.58 up to $218.23 based on the recommended allowances and price adjustments awaiting approval by the Defense Department. Officials state that the general rising costs in the clothing industry are the reasons for the price increase. For the past several years prices have changed slightly on individual items but the net increase has been small, as an example the increase was $2.69 last July compared to $52.65 this year. There has been no official word as yet but there is a strong probability that monthly clothing maintenance allowances will be increased due to the sharp rise in costs. All services have asked the Defense Department to increase the monthly clothing allowance from $4.20 to $5.40 for the first 36 months of service and an increase from the present $6.00 to $7.80 per month for all enlisted personnel with over three years service.
