INSURANCE FOR EVERY SOLDIER

The Treasury Department is
making every effort to have
every member of Americas
fighting forces take advantage of
the Government-insurance plan,
which Secretary McAdoo asserts
to be the most just and humane
provision ever made by any ma
ton for its soldiers and sailors.
The purpose is rapidly being
achieved, the insurance having
passed the third billion mark in
the total of policies written, and
there are many military units in
which every member has taken
insurance.
The automatic insurance pro-
vided by the law is only partial
and limited protection, payable
only to wife, child, or widowed
mother and ceases after Febru-
airy IL, 1918. 1t is important,
therefore, not only to the sold
iers and sailors of the country
but to their families and depend
ents, that before that date they
avail themselves of the full Gov
eminent protection, which can
60 as high as $40, 600 and is pay
ableIto aSwife, husband, child
grandchild, parent, brother, or
sister.
The law also provides for the
reeducation and rehabilitation of
the totally disabled and monthly
COMPENSATION to those disabled.

Draft Boards Pay

Prsvost Marshall General Crowder
has announced that he has accepted the
recommendation of board members and
others connected with the administra-
ton of the selective draft to place the
salary of members of the local boards
on cost basis. Extravagant expense
bills rendered by many members led to
this decision.
Hereafter, according to the announce
ment, the boards will receive an aggre-
gate of 80 cents remuneration for each
man finally classified, exclusive of com
pensation of clerk hire or expenses for
examining physicians.

for subsequent usefulness in the many
enterprises under Mr.. Changes dtrec-
tion-the transportation companies,
