C. A. to facilitate the payment of sums of money entrusted to the “Y” to be forwarded to them, by American soldiers still serving overseas. These remittances are part of the 614 which remained undelivered June 26, out of the 835,514 aggregating $20,580,• 242J20 handled for the doughboys by the “Y" since January 1. 1018. The total of undelivered remittances represents one third of one per cent of the entire amount handled. In every caw inability to clear remittances is due to incorrect or incom plete addresses or the disappearance of payees without trace. Four months ago, with a tota lof 1,659 undelivered remittances, the Y. M. C. A. appealed to the press of the country for assiitance in locating payees. Since that time, through the publicity given these cases by the newspapers, the total has been reduced by more than 1,000.
