Westbrook Pegler argues for raising base army pay to $60 a month to improve morale and social standing of soldiers, estimating annual costs at about $720 million. He contends higher wages would reduce resentment, aid discipline, and reflect future bonuses, noting the impracticality of “tobacco money” wages and the need for better conditions for a modern force. He references historical views on soldiers’ pay and social access, ending with a note on Russian Communist rule.
