IS A SPECIAL WARTIME ACT
Thousands OF Soldiers Still In the Ser.
vice Both at Home and Abroad,
Maintain Their AIlotments.

Notwithstanding allotments
and allowances under the war risk in.
surance act will expire automatically
on July 81, Comptroller Warwick, of
the Treasury, holds.
The ruling was based on the resolu-
ton adopted by the last congress re-
pealing most of the special wartime
acts. War risk insurance bureau Off
cials were unable to give accurate fig
ures concerning the number of SOL
der sailor and marine -allotnlents
which would be affected, but they said
thousands of men still in the service
both at home and in the American
army on the Rhine were maintaining
the allotment3 to their relatives and
that the government likewise was
supplying an equal amount
Mr.. Warwick holds that the resolu-
tion repealed the war risk insurance
act within four calendar months after
its adoption by congress and that con-
sequently the allowances, made by the
government to equal the allotments of
members of the military forces must
cease after July 81.
