Army Cracks Down On Dependent Fraud False Claims Made By Many Soldiers WASHINGTON, UP— The army plans a nationwide crackdown next month on soldiers who have been defrauding the government of millions of dollars through false dependency claims, it was disclosed today. , The crackdown was ordered after chairman Dewey Short (R- Mo.) of the house armed services committee told defense officials he was “shocked" at the wide-spread fraud uncovered in a preliminary army survey of the so-called “Claas Q" allotments for servicemen's' families. The air force, navy an<( marine corps plan to make their, own “preliminary surveys" to see if their people are also gypping the gov* erkment. ( ‘ \ > Reliable sources reported the navy and marine corps in particular had to be “prodded” by Short into making such an investigation. Their contention, rejected by Short, was that services composed entirtly of volunteers would not be likely to have a fraud problem. Class Q allotments are made to dependents of an enlisted man when the government is unable to provide adequate living quarters for them. Part of the payment comes from the enlisted man’s pay, and the remainder is contributed by the government. Most of the skullduggery uncovered so far by the army has centered around allotments for secondary dependents, such as parents,' as opposed to primary allotments for wives and children. i\ The most productive fluorspar region in the wdrld is in -Hardin County, 111. Fluorspar is a basic ingredient in the manufacture of steel. , The oldest Baptist church in the nation was founded by Roger Williams in Providence, R. 1., in 1638. The congregation now occupies a building built in 1775. Trade in a uooa i own\— Decatur.
