MANY WAR RISK
CLAIMS ADJUSTED
Bureau Has Speeded Up and Made
Good Record in Adjusting Pending
Claims Of Service Men.

A reduction of 29.476 in the number
of pending compensation and insur-
ance claims OF former service men and
women has been effected during the
last three months of the fiscal year
ending July 1, 1921, it is announced
toGay by Director G. r. Forbes, of the
Bureau Of War Risk Insurance. This
reduction in the number of claims on
which final action is still to be taken
has been accomplished notwithstand-
ing that new claims have been reach
ing the bureau during that period at
an average rate of from 700 to 500 a
day and that these new cases receive
at once as complete action as is posi-
BILE on the data presented.
On April 1, 1921, there were pending
before the bureau 99401 claims for
compensation and 5,7SS insurance
claims; on July 1, 1921, the account
stands $1,000 pending compensation
claims and S,O25 pending insurance
claims. while during that period OF
time 5625S new claims have been filed
with the bureau.
A determined drive toward the goal
of current basis IN handling the
claims of former service men has been
instituted in the bureau. To this end
weekly chart is prepared and posted in
each of the units of the compensation
and insurance claims division where
action on the claim is inflated. and on
this appears the number of waiting
claims aportioned to that section and
the estimated account as it should
stand at the close of the week. Many
of the units are now running ahead of
of their schedule of reduction of cases
awaiting action.
All cases which have been pending
for six months are now handled by tel
egram, the wires going to the claimant
hismeslf, to the district office of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance which
is nearest to him, to some of the well
fare organizations cooperating with
the bureau, or to any source from
which information necessary to the adj
judication of the claim may be OBJ
tanned.
An intensive program is being car
ried out in the medical division
through the introduction of addi-
tlonal doctors who We're called from
the district offices of the United
States public health service to aid in
the drive and, as result, the medical
division has succeeded from May Is to
July / in handling approximately So
900 cases. The experience in handling
war risk cases so afforded these doc
tors, temporarily detailed for field SER
vice. will be of further assistance and
value to the work Of adjudicating war
risk bureau claims when the doctors
shall have returned to the field and
when legislation may have made the
establishment of regional offices with
authority for complete action on cases
an accomplished fact.

Maize Warnings Found
On Library SheLUes

After all the gallows and devils
with which the book thief has been
threatened, it is a relief to discover
a positively courteous jingle. a
correspondent supplies most polite
and reasoned entreaty as relic
from his school days:
II thou art borrowed by a friend,
Right welcome shall he be
To read, to study, not to lend
But to return to me.
Not that impaired knowledge doth
. Diminish learning's store.
But books too often lent l md,
Return to me no moro.
1t would need a particularly aban-
doned character to resist that pol
ished appeal. Another correspon-
dent contributes an example OF quite
a different warning from any hith-
erto given. Security is achieved by
pointing out to the potential thief
that his onense will be its own
punishment.
If there should be another Flood,
Hither for refuge fly
Were all the world to be submerged
This book would still be dry,
From the Manchester Guardian.
The Washington herald., 1921-01-14
Who Shall Control?

The fundamental service rendered by the
assembly is just this enlightening and rousing
OF public opinion. There is profound wisdom
in Lord Robert CecilS constant reteration of
this point. The assembly has revealed and
made specific the next steps to be taken to inI-
prove the league, and so furnished progressive
elements in all countries with a program and
ralying point round which they unite
This is from the Manchester Engand) Guard
ian known in Great Britain radical, though in
the United States it would be called merely pro-
gressive. As a better index to its international
policy as related to the Lloyd George government
are these statements:
That the American States in the league, the
ScandinavianS, Holland, Switzerland and Italy ia
the admission Of Germany and all countries to
make the league all inclusive and they would de-
tach the covenant from the treaty.
They also favor free amendment OF the cove
nant, while the Guardian favors fixing the German
indemnity at a payable in four hve years;
remission by Great Britain Of the French and
Italian war debts; making prime ministers repre-
sentatives in the council with the other representa-
tves elective; giving the international court COM
pulsory jurisdiction which is also favored by the
bloc OF states, named, and giving the assembly
control over mandatory programs.
Barring forgiveness of debts these would all
have strong support with American progressivcs
and 50 would not be called very radical here But
the Guardian also foretells split in the league, if
the allies through control OF the council, persist in
control of the league regardless OF the assembly.
This is. all very interesting, more interesting as
opinion, than important as judgment 1t
shows how far the league got in its first meeting.
1t indicates that the assembly takes itself seriously
and proposes to be than the tail Of the dog
! evidenced merely by the bark.
There be doubt the assembly will de-
mand the power clearly granted to it by the cove
nant to deal with any matter within the sphere Of
action of the league affecting the peace OF the
world" This phrase in itself gives it coordinate
power with the council.
There is no to doubt, that unless
the council next September when the assembly
again, does concede much actual authority to
it, to at least the extent of frankly and openly con-
sutng with it and refrainng from any spirit Of de-
iance, there may be something OF deadlock.
Possibly, looking to such anscvent Mr.. Harding
may have found here the basis for his reported
association of only the great powers. This may be
simply taking time by the forclock and organizing
sort of great power entente, before the world s
children have a chance to show their nsubordina-
ton.
