For the first time, the army has advised the department that it would like to count upon it for help in det ermining whether men seeking dis charges from the army in order to re turn home to support dependents should be discharged. Capt. Rudolph D. Zotel, adjutant for the 118th infantry regiment, of the 30th division, has written Thom as H. Daniel, state director of wel fare, asking for the department’s as sistance in such work. “We plan to cooperate in every way possible,” Daniel said. For some time, the department has been assisting selective service boards by making investigations of the circumstances of families of reg istrants under selective service to ascertain whether they should be de ferred (in the draft) so that they might care for dependents. This is the first time, however, the department has been notified that its assistance is desired in investigating the-oases-ef-meri-i»l*e«dy in-the-army who are peeking discharge,, or whose families desire it for economic reas. ona. In his letter to Daniel, Capt, Zobel enclosed copies of army regulations, and explained that certification by an authorized welfare agency is neces sary for such discharges. The wel fare agency would njake an investi gation of the family involved to det ermine whether there is a genuine need for the man to be discharged and returned to b>« home. “It is requested that you cooper ate with us,” Capt. Zobel wrote Mr. Daniel, “as we try in all cases to help the families who shfeuld nave their soldier husbands or sons back home for support.” Mr. and Mrs. William Owens Wick er of Pomaria announce tlis marriage of their daughter, Mary Willene, to Joseph Mayer Eargle, son of Mrs. Irene Wessinger Eargle and the late Mr. Eargle of Peak, on November 4, 1940.
