Heavy taxes are levied, and they
pocket the money. The governor was
not elected, but named by a gang OF

Letters to the Editor
What Was Done With II?

To the Editor OF the Evenino Public Ledger:
Sir--lt was with great interest that
I read Mr.. William Macdonald's state
D,ent as to what the United States Vet
crans' Bureau is now doing for the sol :.
dier. ! suppose 1t was in the nature OF
IN answer to the article of mine re .
Sarding the mishandling VI the soldiers
money by the War Risk Insurance. we
are aware that the War Risk Insurance
Bureau. the Health Bureau and other
bureaus handling matters pertaining to
the welfare Of the soldiers of the late
war have been combined under the
United States Veterans Bureau. and
that this bureau handles insurance, al
lotments, vocational education. etc.
The figures given by Mr.. Macdonald
and the general tone Of his letter would
give the impression that everything Is
cling done for the soldier without any
Expenditure on thr soldiers part ne

he does not state what the bureau Is

crR. He also does not mention thnt hiI'
lions of dollars were collected from the
majority of soldiers during the war. the
number OF enlisted men and officers
amounting TO about 1 900 900. As most
Of the soldiers had $4,000 insurance
and were paying SIS a year, the amount
collected in premiums would be about
81 900 900 day. or approximately
300 900 900 or S4OO, ,OOO, 600 yearly. A
large proportion Of these. men dropped
their insurance. and all the money they
paid in was lost. as there was no ex-
tended insurance feature. no cash SUR
render value. nor rnid-up insurance. az
is the case with old line insurance COM
panies. Furthermore. the insurance
held by the soldiers during the war was
the cheapest kind Of insurance that can
be purchased from an old-line company,
and is known as term insurance.
What was done with the large amount
cs money that was deducted for allot-
mcnts and how can soldier get rec
ord Of the way this money was dis
bursed? Can Mr.. Macdonald tell me
that? Or was there no record kept OF
the disbursements for insurance and al
lotmcrts during the war.
We appreciate what is being done Tor
the soldier ut the present time. bnt we
can't see where there was much done
for him during the war except separate
him from his money.

not giving voice to her feelings, though
