Extra Overseas Pay Cut for Most GI's
Washington AP reports a sweeping change in overseas hardship pay. About 375,000 GIs lose eligibility with 225,000 remaining eligible for some extras. The policy excludes many in Western Europe and Japan while Hawaii personnel lose it and Alaska retain it. Officers overseas are unaffected. The move aims to save 58 million annually, offset by new bonuses under the pay bill.

Parole Board Ruled Remiss In Action Taken on Kerrigan
The Massachusetts parole board, acting as the pardons advisory body, recommended commuting John J. Kerrigan’s death sentence to life. The executive council rejected the commutation, then granted a respite to December 12. Attorney general and district attorney were found to have been improperly notified of Kerrigan’s interview at Walpole Prison. Kerrigan admitted impulsive involvement with Edgar Cook’s escape but denied killing Patrolman Lawrence Gorman.
