Washington volunteers form fund to buy homesteads after service
Several volunteer companies in Washington adopt a system to pay part of their wages into a trust fund for purchasing homesteads on government lands after enlistment ends. Each member deposits ten dollars per sixty days, with death deposits paid to spouses or heirs. Funds are invested in homes after service, with a certificate of deposit issued to the saver and a protected endowment for widows or children. The plan, run by trustees, is widely praised and likely to be adopted widely.
