did you RTFMP, my friend? if you are using the adduser Debian uses (Guy
Maor is maintainer) it would turn you to /etc/adduser.conf and
adduser.conf(5) that goes with it, and among all the cool stuff it does
(two level homedirs and other tricks), it has this to say:

       DIR_MODE
              If  set to a valid value (e.g. 0755 or 755), direc­
              tories created will have the specified permissions.
              Otherwise 0755 is used as default.

why did I quote all this? because I have a toe gnawing feeling, either
you didn't read it or you are not using the right distro. my adduser is
the one found on Debian. (you can get it from the mirror on IGLU)

bonna fortuna,
Ira.
