War Risk Bureau Expects
Large Number of 4,OOO,O 900
Soldiers to Continue Policies.

Washington-Uncle Sam has the
biggest insurance business in the
world-as much, in fact, as the rest
Of the world together.
When the armistice was signed he
had insured his soldiers for a total of
between $4,000, 900, 900 and $685.
900, 900, 900, fully two-thirds the cost
Of the war to the United States. This
was written on the lives Of 100000
soldiers, 95 per cent of whom. now
carry insurance. The average policy
is about $3.50.
The War Risk Insurance Bureau is
now at work cancelling allotments to
dependents of soldiers as they are
discharged from the army. About
100000 men made allotments.
On Dec. Q, 1918, the War Risk In
surance Bureau had made compensa-
ton awards on 4,023 death claims
and 4,699 disability claims and had
received total of 51,s45 claims. A
large number Of the men insured are
expected to keep their insurance in
force. And the War Risk Insurance
Bureau is expected to be in operation
many years.
If the death claims were paid in
one sum, instead of by installments,
they would amount to about $780,
100000. Premiums to date amount
to s170,00O,000, as an offset to these
claims, or leaving deficit of $780,
100000. This figure may be greatly
increased when final reports have
been received. Deaths from inhuen-
"a amounted to 1900.
