 He found the work of the Rec- ord Division many months in the arrears. When Congress wanted in- formation of the record of a sol dier, or the Pension Office sought similar information as basis for an allowance or pension, that ses- sion of Congress frequently ended, and the object of the pension fre-

quently died before 1t was forth coming. Major General Ainsworth changed all of this. It was he who introduced the card index system into the War Department, whence it has spread throughout the gov ernment service.
 Owing to the system which he put into effect, not only the medi- cal but the military part of the reports in pensions and other claims were so thoroughly brought up to date that for many years prior to his retirement from 95 to 97 per cent of the calls for information were answered within twenty-four hours. At the same time through improved methods, resulting in an increased efficiency, the clerica force was reduced until there has been effected a saving of $500,00C annually.
 Retired 1912
 General Ainsworth retired from the army as a Major General and as Adjuant General February 16 1912 on his own application and as a result of a sharp difference of opinion with general Wood Chief of Staff and Secretary of War Simpson over methods of re- organization and business methods of the Adjutant-Generals office. Since his retirement he has lived in Washington.

The plaintiveness of their appeal
seemed to find a mysterious but sweet

she termed her problems.

PENSIONS AND INSURANCE

THE question has been raised whether the
- next Congress should provide old age
security through Federal aid to old age pension
states, or through national contributory in
Surance system. The answer is simple. 1t
should do both.
Pensions for INDECENT aged have come to be
the accepted American substitute for poor
house relief. Pension laws have been enacted
in 20 states These states, however, need Fed
eral help. Due to fiscal difficulties the pension
systems are fully operative in only 10 of these
% states. In the II others the aged poor are
cared for under general poor relief
Pensions are pitifully inadequate in many
states Last year they averaged only $3.50 a
month, and in some states were 81 monthly.
Today some 100000 Americans past IS are
on Federal relief. Only about 10000 men and
women past 65 are getting pensions
The Government should contribute to state
pension funds, at least as generously as was
proposed in the Dill-Connery bill. This aid
would tend to bring non-pension states into
national system. Moreover, it would fix mini
mum rates and standards at better level
But such aid to state pension systems based
on the means or pauper test is inadequate.
national system of contributory old age in
surance also should be started now
Unless an insurance system is provided, the
cost of old age relief threatens to swamp tax
payers in a few years. OF the 6,5OO0OO Amer
leans past IS at least 100000 are needy. I'm
less younger workers soon start contributing
to a nationally administered insurance fund,
the number will increase to staggering bur-
den. Such a security fund, based on earnings
and not on a means test, could create back
log against old age dependency, conserve the
workers self-respect and save billions of dol
lars in relief.
Fortunately, Americas very neglect of her
workers security now gives her an opportunity
to profit by other nations experiences All of
the important industrial countries have old
age insurance systems. Only few of the non
industrial ones have the single pension system.
We shall find it necessary as have both Eng
land and France to retain the pension system
and to aid the insurance system
The two systems are not conflicting They
are supplemental
