HAS INCREASED PENSION LIST
LESS THAN eEvEN
THoUsAND.
IN EFFECT ONE YEAR
NEW APPLICATION 10 NECESSARY
FOR EACH AGE
INCREASE.

Warrington the service pen
sion act was passed last February
there was much speculation as to what
its effect would be in placing upon the
pension rolls the names Of soldiers and
sailors who heretofore had never
made application. The omcials Of the
pension once we're Of the opinion that
there would be as many as 100000 ap-
plications from members Of the So
called unknown army" Few persons
thought the number would be less
than $4,000.
The service pension act became ef
fective February 9Th last. The first
pension certificates urder It were isl
sued eight days later. Up to the firsh
Of the present year 2S2,85 certificates
granting pensions under this act had
been issued. The total number OF GER
tihcates issued under all other laws
last year was 60.879. Only 6.S61 new
names are on the pension rolls at this
time as a result Of the legislation Of
February.
About 100000 applications for pen
sions under the service law-most Of
them being from men now on the rolls
who desire to take advantage Of the
higher rating afforded by the legisla-
tion Of last February-arc pending In
the pension once. Many Of these
cases have been delayed by reason Of
the discrepancy as to the age Of the
applicant shown In the application and
the age shown by the records Of the
War Department.
Fifty applications for pensions un-
der the service Law were filed the day
the act went into effect. The follow
Ing day more than 100 applications
were received. and In the two or three
weeks following 1000 applications
daily were not unusual.
The service pension Law provides
for the allowance Of q pension df el2

Of sixty.two and seventy years Who
served ninety days; . pe1sioa Of 11k,

In the last few weeks many sena.

asked by pensioners whether Il will
be necessary for them to make now
applications when they reach the Pc
Rod OF life which names them to re-
ceive higher rating. For instance.
