No Money Wasted Says Salvation Army Chief Disbursing Officer
The Salvation Army faces critics who claim funds are wasted or misapplied. A recent annual statement and auditing sheet show officers’ modest salaries and the organization’s use of donations.

Enemies unlikely to harm the cause over pay questions.
