PROBES SICK BENEFITS
Uncle Sam investigates Conduct
of Various Organizations.
Membership Classification Based Upon
Earnings, Prevailing Practice In
Majority of Cases.

An investigation has recently been
completed by the bureau of labor sta
tistics of the department of labor to
determine certain facts about nom
commercial sickness and disability
benefit funds as conducted (a) in es-
adjustments, for the benefit of em-
ployees by single firm, whether such
FUNDS are conducted solely by the em-
plQyees themselves, solely by the em-
ployer, or jointly by both; CD sick
ness and disability funds conducted by
national or international trade unions;
(c) such funds conducted as an ac-
tivity Of local trade unions.
The points sought to be emphasized
in this study, officials of Uncle Sans
bureau state, were the qualification for
membership; the benefits paid; the fire.
quency and duration of disabilities
In relation both to total membership,
and to total actual beneiiciaries and,
finally, the cost Of maintenance of such
funds and the percentage of such cost
that goes to cash benefits to members
and to administrative expense.
1t was found that the membership Of
the establishment funds consists to a
very large extent of wage-earning male
employees, although no distinction is
made between salaried and wage-earn-
ing applicants. 1t Is estimated that
females constitute less than 10 per
cent Of the combined membership Of
all funds. About two-thirds of the
establishment funds have only one
class Of membership. The prevailing
practice, 1t was found, in about three
fourths of the funds having classes is
to base the membership classification
upon the earnings OF the applicants or
When females join in large
numbers n special class Is usually Gre
ated for them.
In the great majority of the funds
by the national or interna-
tiOnal labor organizations the amount
of cash benefits paid per week is rath-
er small, the average in all but two
funds being less than So.
Few of the national organizations
have any accounting system furnishing
data regarding the cost of administer
ing the sick benefit features. In terms
Of a percentage Of the total cost of
he schemes the administrative cost in
i've organizations was 22.5, 1876, 12.4,
S.3, and 6.5 per cent, respectively, an
lverage of slightly over II per cent.

Produce Most Tale Here.

The United States is by far the
largest producer and consumer of tale
In the world, according to the United
States geological survey, department
of the interior. The softness, absorp-
tive capacity, difficult fusibility and
solubility, and electric resistance of
tale make it one of the most generally
useful of all minerals in the arts and
industries. Its principal military use
is to prevent sore feet among march
ing soldiers. Only pure ground tale
should be used for this purpose. The
demand for the "fOOtease" grade of
ground tale, which is now extensively
used In the army, may be fully sup
piled in this country. Although the
war has stimulated production it has
not greatly increased the price

MEDICAL HISTORY OF WAR
Record Will Be Kept of the Work Of
Uncle Sans Surgeons and
Health Officers.

The surgeon general of the army,
Maj. Gen. William G. Gorgas, has es-
tablished board to collect material
for the medical and surgical history
of American participation in the Euro
pean war. This board is composed Of
Col. G. c. McCullock, librarian of the
Army Medical Library Maj. f. H. Car
rison, assistant librarian in direct
charge of work on the history; and
Capt. John S. Fulton, secretary of the
Maryland State Board of Health, who
will have charge Of the statistical work.
One phase of the subject which will
be given attention is the advance made
in reducing both the number of cases
of disease and the death rate among
those cases occurring This reduction
is forecast by results during the mobi-
lization of United States troops for
service on the Mexican border and
among the European armies engaged in
war.
Some European countries are known
to be well along on medical histories
of the war. The medical history Of
the Civil war in the United States is
made up Of six volumes, whose prep
aratiOn covered a period of % years
from the end of the war.
It is planned to have the work done
relatively soon after the end Of tho
war, although the immense mass of
reports to be gone through and an-
alyzed and the material from them asa
sembled will probably require many
months work

Uncle Sans Sea Soldiers
Invent Movable Trenches

Trenches that may be picked
up bodily and moved around
from place to place is the inven-
ton of United States marines,
who use this novel apparatus
for practice in hand grenade
throwing.
Sections, about 10 feet long,
with a parapet that stands 3
feet above the head of the gren-
adler, form a skeleton frame
work of pine, shaped similar to
the regular trenches. From In
side these portable trenches, or
"StallS," as the marines call
them, the sea-soldiers hurl the
grenades over the top and into
other stalls, placed about 80 feet
away, to represent the enemy
trenches.
The practice grenades are nom
explosive, but are of the same
weight and size as those used
by the allies. Long, rangy fell
lows prove to be the best throw
ers, as their greater reach helps
them to develop the sweeping
overhead throw that experienced
grenadiers use.
