BIG SAVING, HE SAYS

Payment of disability compensa-
ton to soldiers and of death bene-
fits to their beneficiaries would be
taken out of the hands OF the War
Risk Bureau and administered by
the Pension Bureau by a bill intro
duced into the House yesterday by
Representative Joseph w. Fordney.
OF Michigan.
Fordney declares his bill will
save the government 100000
yearly and increase efficiency.
The War Risk Bureau has over
$500 people doing this work." he
said. while the Commissioner of
Pensions informs me he can do It
with a force of $50 or 800. Their
employees are skilled in that line of
work while those of the War Risk
are not.
Discretion Vs. Law. e..
Besides, in the Bureau of War
Risk Insurance the pension a man
receives Is entirely discretionary
with some official there. In the
Pension Bureau they do not take
that attitude-they administer the
act according to the law.
The Pension Bureau has a medi-
cal stan in the field all over the
country, which costs the govern
ment 100000 annually. II this
work Is kept in the War Risk Bu-
reau IL will entail another medical
stan fully as large" T..
Wants Transfer Committee.
Fordney wants the transfer ar
ranged by a committee of five,
ramed respectively by the Secretary
of the Treasury. the Secretary of
the Interior. the Commissioner of
Pensions, the Director of the War
Risk Bureau and the United States
Bureau of Efficiency.
