WAR RISK CLERKS
WORRIED OVER Jobs
Senator Smoot's Plan to Do
Away With Department
Causes Concern.

Thirteen thousand clerical employees
of the War Risk Insurance Bureau
were plainly concerned today over
the proposal of Senator Smoot to
abolish the bureau and distribute it's
work among the old established Gov
ernmental agencies, but the higher
officials did not take seriously to the
plan.
The Smoot plan would send the
compensation division to the pension
bureau: allotments, TO the War and
Navy Departments; Insurance. to thA
PostofYice Department and claims, to
the auditors office of either the
Treasury or War Department.
Senator Smoot's idea is to save the
Government the salaries of 5000 to
10. 600 clerks. he says, and at the same
time increase the efficiency of the
work
Bureau in Good shape.

according to r. c.. Cholmeley-J Jones
director OF the War Risk Bureau

ex-service men. The fact that a saw
ing may be brought about through
the dismissal of 10000 clerks is only
Incidental.
. -At2the present time the bureau il
in better shape than it has ever been
in. The aetd creating it says that 4,

clared. Why dump certain of its in
active departments on Government
agencies already established when
they would automat tically 60 out OF
existence within comparatively
short time"

that 1T will be a department OF ex-
service men operated for the benefit
OF ex-service men, as the director
explains 1t.
AS soon as Congress reconvenes mex,
week Director Cholmeley-Jones will
ask for hearing before committees
or the House and Senate. He does not
believe that the Smoot plan will ge,
any considerable support in either
branch OF Congress
The American Legion. which has
manifested keen interest in the
work OF the bureau, may take a hand
TO determine whether the war risk act
can be best administered through a
separate bureau or through several
bureaus working separately.

Under tbe, pail CAST by the grayest
crisis that ever threatened disaster
to the nation as the outcome of a
dispute BET xeen capital and labor,
most of thsrseFenteen members of
President Wilson'S new industrial
conference are due to arrive here
tomorrow ready for the opening ses-
sion Monday.
Although 1t is not the Presidents
intention that the new body OF in
dustrial peace-makers will deal d.
rectly with the coal situation or any
existing quarrel, it is felt here that
il is high time that something con-
structive should be undertaken to
put a stop to the blind and growing
class antagonism which is dragging
the country into trouble.
No Details Prepared.
Owing TO the mad succession OF in
cidents during the past two weeks
the rejection of the treaty, the coal
strike. the Mexican embroglio. and
others-the details Of what promises
TO be one of the most far-reaehlnS
events yet staged in the National
capital. have been left until the last
minute.
Where the conference Will sit; az
what hour: who will preside at the
opening session: who will be perma-
ent chairman; whether the delibera-
tons will be behind closed doors or
in public: what the order of procedure
viii be. whether there will be a mes
sage from President Wilson read
ell these things have yet TO be deter
mined. according TO those in closest
touch with the situation today.
1t Is considered likely. however.
that the seventeen will hold their
rleetings at the Pan-Americsn build
ing, and that Secretary OF Labor Will
son will preside. All that Is known
beyond question Is that the conference
begins in Washington on Monday.
