WAR RISK INSURANCE

The Marion County Board of Trade
is in receipt of a statement of Car
ter Glass. secretary of the treasury,
in which is made clear some points of
doubt with regards to the war risk in
surance.
Mr.. Glass statement is as follows:
considerable confusion and much
misunderstanding seems to prevail
among the relatives and benefciaries
of men in the military and naval ser
vice as to their rights under the war
risk insurance act. Many mothers
and fathers named as beneiciaries of
the government insurance applied for
by their sons have gained the i'm
preston that they must prove de-
tendency in order to receive pay
ments of insurance. This is an en-
tirely erroneous impression probably
due to a confusion of the insurance
and compensation provisions of the
act of Congress of October 6, 1917,
the terms Insurance" and "Compen-
sation" are used INTERCHANGEABLE,
whereas they represent two entirely
separate and distinct benefits.
Insurance is payable regardless of
any dependency and a beneficiary
designated in an application for gov
eminent insurance if within the per-
mitted class of spouse, child. grand
child, parent, brother or sister is en-
titled to receive the insurance in
monthly installments without prov
ing any dependency upon the insured.
Compensation however, which is
separate and apart from insurance and
takes the place of the pension pro-
vided under the old pension system. is
payable only to wife, child, depend
ent mother or dependent father of a
man who is disabled or dies as a re-
suit of injury suffered or disease con-
tracted in the line of duty while en-
ployed> in the active service. Com
pensation may be payable in addition
to insurance, but a mother or father
must prove actual dependency in
order to receive monthly payments of
compensation although they will re-
ceive the insurance in monthly in
stallments if named as the beneficiary
thereof whether they are dependent
or not.
"No dependency need be shown by
any beneficiary in order to receive the
government insurance, but a mother
or father must prove actual depend
ency upon their deceased son for the
necessaries of life in order to receive
the additional payment of compensa-
ton"

and sixth grade children. A book that
jumps from a simple proposition to a
complex one. So complex, indeed,
that mothers almost weep as they try
to help their struggling tots to COM
prehend it. Learned teachers tell US
that books like that train the youth
full minds. They do not train, but they
discourage. The Ocala Evening Star
has an admirable editorial on this
subject, all of which we wish we could
copy. We give these extracts. %
And prac-
teal men and women know that what
the Star says is true. They know that
the greatest minds of this land, pres

Every time we have criticised the

Baseball Men Wish
 Peace Would Soon Be
 Declared in American

Baseball men who are not taking part in the American League fight believe that the best way to settle it and to relieve the game from tiresome legal proceedings would be a confer ence between Johnson and his five clubs and the three directors repre- senting Boston, New York and Chi cago at some place in this city. There seems to be no reason why MT. John son and his supporters should not get together with their adyersaries at once.
 The easiest way to settle the contro- Versy, according to neutral baseball mtsn, is to have a showdown either behind closed doors or in the presence of newspaper writers. As in all busi- ness enterprises, the American League affairs should be controlled by a, rna- jority of the clubs and there is no way of determining just how the clubs stand regarding Johnson's rule unless they assemble at once and place themselves on record so that the pub lie may know which faction holds the whip hand. The fans are disgusted with the wrangling and legal proceed lngs which have tangled up the af-

DENY REPORT THAT SOLDIERS
 WERE KILLED

London, Dec. 17.---Offcial denial of the report circulated by the Russian Bolsheviki that hostile Persians had massacred the British garrison of 1900 men at Meshed, Persia, was made by the war office today. The announce ment stated that this report had been repeated to the war office without comment by the officer commanding at Meshed three days after the, alleged destruction of himself and his com mand." The dispatch from the Meshed commander was received at o'clock this afternoon.
 Officials here declare that the report was obviously Bolshevik propaganda intended to stir up trouble in the east particularly in India, by persuading the natives that such massacres were easily possible The Bolsheviki have been making unusual efforts to spread revolutionary propaganda in India, in the hope of starting a revolt, it was added, and they are also working as siduousIy to the same end in Afghan iStan-
