INSURANCE. MEN CALLED
ON For HELP
Three cntiro days were srent in cX-
planning and instructing these men. and
they were ordered TO return to their
respective stations and sell this insur-
ancc. While they succeeded in sccur-
ing a large number OF applications.
those in authority were not satisfied
with the progress they made, and on
November an entirely new group Of
volunteer workers were summoned to
Washington by the Secretary of the
Treasury for the same purpose. In
this group there were a few practical
life insurance men. but tho group was
made up principally of Law yers social
workers and economists. These in turn
were kept in session for several days
instruction and they were sent 10 the
various training camps and caGtcn-
mcnts. They devoted more than II
month to this service, and still the re-
suits were no; satisfactory. so on De-
Ccmbcr .? tho Secretary of the Treas
ury summoned 20 Washington 4 group

group was told that H. was the earnest

fits OF this insurance should be clearly
and forcefully presented to all soldiers
and sailors then in the service. and
this group was a:ked to arrange a
campaign for the sale OF this insur-
ance.
The responsibility for this campaign
was vested in a smaller group known
rs the Soldiers and Sailors Campaign
Council and they spent about ten days
investigator what had been done, how
II had been done. and in planning a
selling campaign to be conducted with
more or less uniformity at all military
and naval stations, and this campaign
was launched January IL. Up to that
time there had been received at the
Bureau Of War Risk Insurance 4o7,S1l
applications for 4 total Of s3,633.@l3, 900
tan average of SS,493 per pcrson).
The experience of these practical life
insurance men proved valuable in this
campaign One of the first things the
council did was to draft all experienced
life insurance men then in the military
forces OF the nation. and a large number
Of ether persons who were especially
we'll qualified for this service. The
records indicate that the campaign was

requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
