President Takes Care of Situation by Allotment
 From Special Fund.

Washington, March 24-Financial stringency of the war risk insurance bureau was relieved today by Q mes sage from President Wilson to Secre- tary Glass saying the President had made an allotment from his emer- gency war fund to pay expenses of the bureau until Congress appropri- ates at the next session The amount allotted was not specified.
 Treasury officials have estimated a little more than three million dollars will be needed to pay the bureaus ex- penses until the middle of May, when congress may be called in special ses- sion.
 This action of the President means that there is no immediate danger o1 allotment and allowance checks or remittances for insurance or compen- sation being held up by a forced re- duction of clerical help within the bureau.
