    When unable to adjust. War Office adjustment an A.F. O 1682 to another paymaster in the same command, clearly mark it Local in red ink. 390. Should a paymaster be unable to adjust a Local pay- mastei''s advance, he may pass it to another paymaster in the same command if the latter is able to adjust it, but if not he should make it the subject of a separate transaction under paymasters' advances. Under no circumstances should a paymaster's advance marked Local and scheduled as Local be converted into a War Office paymaster's advance or sent to a jmymaster in another command. 391. Should a paymaster's advance originally credited in a War Office schedule be returned to the sender or passed to a paymaster in the same command as the sender for adjustment, it should be charged on a War Office schedule and not be treated :is a local paymaster's advance. SECTION VII.—NON-EFFECTIVE ESTATES. 1. GENERAL. Effects and 392. The manner in which the effects and credits of deceased ^o^be*co^^ officers and soldiers, of soldiers dischai-ged as insane, of desertei-s, lected, &o. and of men sentenced to imprisonment on conviction of felony, are to be collected and accounted for is prescribed in the Regimental Debts Act and the Eoyal Warrants of 30th August, 1893, 20th October, 1904, and 23rd May, 1906, with the regulations thereunder. 2. NON-EFFECTIVE ACCOTTNTS OF MEN OF THE REGTJIiAR FORCES AND THE SPECIAIi RESERVE. J^s^s^uf be ^ non-effective account (A.F. O 1625) will be prepared with prepared, as little delay as possible for every soldier (except an absconded recruit) who becomes non-effective by death, desertion, or discharge on account of insanity, or who is sentenced to penal servitude or to be discharged with ignominy. In the case of a soldier becoming non-effective from other causes than these, a non-efiective account will only be prepared when a Dr. balance is chargeable against the public. When articles of necessaries are left behind, a deserter's account will not be finally closed until such articles have been disposed of in accordance witli the C!lothing Eegulatious. If, in the meantime, the accounts of the unit to which the deserter belongs are transferred to another paymaster, a non-effective account, completed as far as possible, will be transmitted with the accounts, and the ]mymaster of the new station will, in due course, secure credit for the amount realised by the disposal of the necessaries, and complete the non-effective account.
