Next to being 4 doctor. 4 lawyer
4 newspaper man or an undertaken,
the most disillusioning occupation IN
the world is probably that Of file
clerk in the War Risk Bureau. Like
the Food Administration workers who
can only eat unpeeled fruit and eggs
in the she'll because of the awful
things she knows about food, the War
Risk worker can't take any stock in
magazine covers or war romances be-
cause Of the awful things she knows
about American family life. She has
seen the reverse side OF the picture.
She has substituted fact for fiction
and the substitution doesn't add to the
gayety Of life.
When Congress passed the War RISK
Insurance act, it gave its administra-
tor an UnreckOned power-that OF
looking into the American home when
the blinds are down and seeing those
things that even the gossipy neigh
bors had never been able to ferret. It
has acted like a huge knife cutting
down through the fabric of the soclat
life of the country and has revealed
in the exposed cleavage all the loves
and hates, the jealousy and spite, the
unbroken romances and divided hNes
OF thousands upon thousands OF
American homes. 1t has turned the
spot light on human nature and
caught it without tinsel or make-up'
Shares Many Secrets.
When Mary Jones went to work II
the bureau-wen call her Mary be-
cause it's a grand old name and
names don't really matter for our
purposes, anyhow-she knew that the
United States Government compelled
every soldier to. allot one-hah his
monthly pay to his wife, did he hap
pen to be possessed Of one; that he
could voluntarily allot even more IL

A DifneuIt job.

The war risk workers have their
problems-from the woman who
spends her morning on the golf links
and yet demands additional allotment
from the Government to the ingenious
colored woman who recently ap-
peGred at the bureau in person az
companied by two small children,
which she finally admitted having bor-
rOwed for the occasion in the hope OF
collecting extra allotment money:
from the soldier who, upon his enlist
ment, declared he had no dependent
children, although the whole twenty
Of them lived right in the shadow Of
the bureau itself, to the enterprising
young woman who married one sol
der and one sailor mot wishing TO
show any preference between the two
mighty branches Of the seryice) AMI
carelessly used the same handwriting

And then there is the pathetic cases
OF the old mothers and fathers who
write in to inquire why their allot-
ment money hasn't come when the
bureaU records show definitely that
Johnny or Willie never did arrange
for an allotment to them. all alIot-
ments with the exception OF those to
wives and children being purely VOL

And they are keeping us in the fight de =
livering the necessities of war

summer and winter, with steady
and tremendous power. When the
big fight comes their way, they are s
ready to fight, to die, to win. They
do not simply go across They
have to Fight their way across, to
land the men who will fight clear
through to Berlin.
They are seldom mentioned in newspa-
per war headings, these sailor boys
of ours; but they are performing.

service without which the war could
not be won.
Millions of dollars must be spent each
month to keep that service up; hun

he chose, that The Government would
allow her an additional sum did she
need il and that the same Govern
ment was urging every soldier ana
sailor to take out anywhere from one
TO ten thousand dollars life and dis
ability insurance for the benent OF
any family he might have.
Mary knew all these things and she
had been fed up on gayly cOlored
magazine covers and posters display

And then she opened the nrst let
ter Of her days work.
1t was all to the effect that John
Doe. private in the United States
States army, was perfectly willing to
take out insurance, IL that was what
the Government wanted him to do,
with just one stipulation. He didn't
care who got the money when he had
been carried from the field OF honor n
fallen hero SO long as his wife, Mary
Doe. never got a cent of IL. And the
things he told the Government about
Mary Doe, Details would be painful.
but the substance was to the general
effect that he didn't believe waS
would be so bad after all.
Again, the busy letter opener. This
time the writer was a woman She
allowed that, although she had four
children, she wished Uncle Sam would
send her William to France. Hes

continued, "and he may be just the

An Assured Income.
And then came a message from
man who just wasn't going to make
an allotment TO that wife of his; no.
not if he were court-martialed and
sent to prison for life. He inclosed
snapshot of a fluffy young
woman entirely surrounded by two
sailors. That's my wife" a notation
on the back OF the picture read. ''It
isn't that I've got anything against
the navy. but do you think any man
ought to have to make an allotment
to a wife like that?"
And at that stage OF proceedings
Commissioner Charles T. Nesbit has
to act as Judge, jury and counsel for
both contending parties.
And another soldier who was with
Ciniculty convinced that he must
make his wife an allotment unless he
lad sufficient grounds for divorce
against her, wrote back:
'All right, give her the money. I'm
acting my satisfscti out of think

In this bureau. which is probably
the largest business unit in the
world, with 1900 employees organ
lied in a years time, is the largest
file on record. 1t card catalogues
nearly four million soldiers and
sailors. Its supervisor. Mrs. Ramsay,
has the domestic record of every man
