tNCLE SAM 18 MAKING RESTITU-
TIOX TO THOSE WHOSE SOX8
DIED IN WAR.
[ POLICY $8,740
Disabled Soldiers, Widows, Children
and Dependent Parents of Those
Who Made the Supreme Sacrifice
uc Being Made Comfortable by the
■Government.
"Washington, Sept. 29,—Texan fam-
ilies are being paid HE,159,580 in
war rlak Insurance claims by Uncle
Sam. He Is making restitution to
those whose sons and husbands died
in the service of their country during
the greatest war of all times.
There are 0,167 insurance clalsM
being paid In Texas through the Bu-
reau of War Risk Insurance to bene-
ficiaries named at the time applica-
tion for Insurance was made by sol-
diers, sailors and marines, now dead.
The average policy carried by these
(.1(7 men was M.740.
Disabled soldiers, as well as wid-
ows and children and dependent par-
ents of those who have "died, are be-
ing made comfortable by the gov-
ernment which is paying 2.S08 com-
pensation claims to residents of Tex-
as.
In addition to the Insurance and
compensation claims now being paid
in Texas there'are 1797 of both these
classes of claims under investiga-
tion. These cases, however, are rap-
Idly being adjusted following an in-
vestigation by bureau representatives.
The Bureau of War Risk Insurance
which administers these affairs has
been established by the government
as a permanent institution in recog-
nition of the services veterans of the
world war rendered their country.
The Insurance which venterans are
able to carry as the result of this
«ct of an appreciative government
will be a constant reminder to them
Of the part they took In the war;
whether it has been a matter of ac-
complishing a deed of valor as per-
formed- by Sergeant Alvln Callum
Tork, of Pall Mall. Tenn., or that of
the newest recruit who only under-
went the discomforts of barrack life,
and was .deprived of over-seas ser-
,vlce by the armistice.
Records in the bureau jihow that
this has been a young man's war
and a mother's war. More than 47
per cent of the men who carried gov-
ernment Insurance made mothers
their beniflciariea. Fathers were
named by approximately 11 per cent
of the. men.
The average age of the men killed
in Prance was 23 years.
An examination of the records in
the Bureaii of War Risk Insurance
shows that a large percentage of mar-
ried men in arranging for the future
protection of their families planned
for insurance to be paid to their
mothers, while their thought, in ar-
ranging their compensation benefits,
was for their wives.
About S3 per cent of the men who
carried war risk Insurance named
their wives In making arrangements
for compensation. Mothers were
named by 22 per cent, while the
"wife and child" were named by 14
per cent. This is the natural con-
sequence of privileges granted by the
war risk insurance act. They felt It
their first duty to provide for the im-
mediate needs of their family, making
at the same time, through applica-
tion for insurance, provision for their
parents In their advancing years.
Insurance claims which the bureau
will be called upon to pay amount
to more than <1,012,000,000. The
amount of premiums received from all
service men and which was deducted
from their pay during the active pe-
riod of the war approximates only
$200,000,000 or less than one-fifth of
the -amount of Insurance claims. The
excess above premiums will be paid
by the government.
More than 1.200,000 men who were
born and raised on farms in the
United States and who served in the
army, navy and marine corps during
the recent world war carried approx-
imately $10,488,000,000 of war risk
Insurance. Records show that a
large percentage of this sum waa
The Malaria Mosquito
A mosquito cannot communicate malaria unless
it is infected with malaria. The bite of a malaria
mosquito will transmit malarial parasites to the
blood of a person and these malarial parasites which
feed on the blood should be destroyed before they
have time to increase in numbers. Malarial Fever is
sometimes called Chills and Fever, Bilious Fever and
Swamp Fever.

made payable to their mother*, fath-
ers and others who reside on itarms.
According to an estimate fciade by
the Department of Agriculture,* the
loss In man p«wer to farms as the re-
sult of former service men giving up
farm life.for the city upon their re-
turn from the war, after the general
restlessness brought about by the war
ha» subsided, will be about 600,000.
Records in the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance, compiled during the rap-
id demobilization, covering the period
from January 1, 1919, to June 1.
last, show that more than half the
men change their residence after be-
ing mustered put of the service.
| A certain percentage of the vet-
: erans of the world war are keeping
I up their government Insurance. In
! order to reach those who temporar-
| ily have allowed their insurance to
; lapse, the Bureau of War Risk In-
i surance has organised a voluntary
' field force which will endeavor to
! conserve as much ns possible of the
j nearly $40,000,000,000 of insurance
! carried by men in the service.
This nation wide field force con-
] slats of organisations interested In the
| welfare of soldiers, sailors and ma-
rines, among them, the Red Cross,
T. M. C. A.. War Camp Community
Service, K. of C.. Y. M. H. A., and
other associations. In addition, the
voluntary service® of more |han 50,-
000 life insurance agents hfwe been
enlisted. The volunteer rog further
Includes thousands of bankers, doc-
tors, lawyers, manufacturers, other
business men and representatives of
all associations which come in con-
tact with discharged service men and
their dependents.
Until recently the Bureau of War
Risk Insurance was housed in six-
teen buildings in Washington, rang-
ing from garages to the new national
museum. At present there are about
15,000 people who are engaged in
administering thi« insurance of world
war veterans. If the women work-
ers of the bureau stood finger tip
to finger tip, they would extend
more than thirteen miles.
There are more than 80.000,000
individual records in the bureau, this
large number being necessary in or-
der to keep the data on every man's
insurance up to date. More than five
miles of files are required to hold
these records.
Pome idea of the magnitude of j
$40,000,000,000 may be gained by
figures compiled by the actual sec-
tion of the bureau showing that if
thl« amount were in dollar bills, end
to end, the line thus formed would
extend to the moon more than four-
teen times.
To July 1 there had been 17.828.-
445 checks mailed. If these were in
• line, end for end. they would ex-
tend 2,891 miles. During the first
She months of 1919, there were more
than 4,000,000 letters received by the
bureau. An army of correspondents
Is needed to take care of the great
dally Inflow of letters from former
service men seeking Information on
all phases of War Risk insurance.
There are six permanent forms of
government Insurance, as follows:
1. 10—Tear endowment.
2. 80—Year endowment.
8. 20—Payment Hfe:
4. 80—Payment life.
15. Endowment at age <J.
6. Ordinary life.
Applications are being rece'.ved by
the Bureau of War Risk Insurance
for changing the present term insur-
ance which was Issued at the time
of entering the service, into the per-
manent forms. TlVe government, in
an effort to aid everv man in keep-
ing up his war risk Insurance, has
made unusually liberal provisions
covering reinstatement of insurance,
where the former sen-ice man bas
allowed it temporarily to lapse. In
this way every bit of Insurance which
has been allowed to lapse may be
reinstated under the following pro-
visions:
A. The applicant must be in as
pood health as at the date of dis-
charge, or at the date the insurance
lapsed, if lapse occurred after dis-
charge, and must so slate In the
signed application for reinstatement.
B. The application must be ac-
companied by a remittance to pay
the premium for the month of grace
during which protection was provid-
ed after discharge, and for the first
month on the 'reinstated Insurance.
Ten features which prominently
stand out in the government policy
are ns follows:'
1. The total permanent disability
clause is granted without cost to the
insured and it Is free from nil re-
strictions.
1. Government insurance does not
charge its policy holders any over-
bead expense.
3. It contains an extremely liber-
al definition of disability.
4. It gives very substantial pay-
ments.
5. It contains no age restrictions.
6. It is unrestricted as to travel,
residence or occupation.
7. Premiums paid in advance are
refunded down to the month, in case
of death.
8. The policy is non-taxable.
9. Unusually liberal cash', loan,
paid up insurance and extended term
insurance values ere Included.
10. It participate,, In dividends.
If the policy holder Is unable to
keep the full amount of the war risk
insurance he carried while In the
service, he may reinstate part of it
from $1,000 up to $10,000 in multi-
ples of $500. Reductions may he
made in multiples of $500 to any
amount, but not less than $1,000.
Premiums are due on the first of
the month, although payments may
be made anytime.

FIVE WHITE SOX MEN
ON CINCINNATI TEAM
Chicago Sept. 29,—It ia a singular
coincidence that five members of the
Cincinnati formerly wore the uni-
forms of the White Sox—the team
they are to Play for the world's
baseball championship.
Eddie Rouah atar batter and out-
fielder with the Reds was with the
White Sox for a tryout under the
management of Jimmy Callahan in
1918 but waa released to Lincoln,
Morrla Rath, the Reds second base-
man also was with) the White Sox
under Caliahsn. He was released to
the Kansas City club where he came
to the front as a .800 hitter. He wai
signed by Cincinnati last season—
and made good from the start.
"Hod" Eller. who has been pitch-
ing remarkable ball for the Reds was
on the White Sox roster during the
spring training trip of 1919, but was
released to the Moline club of the
Three-I-league. Eller started his
professional career In the Three-I-
league. which also produced Clar-
ence Rowland, whom "Kid" Gleason
succeeded a> manager of the White
Sox. Rowland was the first to rec-
ognize Eller's major league possibili-
ties and gave him a chance to
qualify In fast company.
While the team was in training at
Mineral Wells, Tex., Eller "palled"
with Dave Danforth and other pitch-
era, and picked up a lot of valuable
Information. His rise to baseball
fame with the Reds has been rapid.
Like Eddie Olcotte, one of the pitch-
j ing atars of the White Sox, Eller's
best year previous to this season was
In 1917. He won ten out of fifteen
games. He has been one of the
pitching mainstays of the Red's staff
this season.
The Sox al8o contributed two more
players to the Reds, concerning
whom little Is heard. They are
Henry Schreiber, utility lnfielder, who
was with the Chicago club In 1914,
and Artemus Ward Allen, a catcher,
who was with Oomiskey's club for a
short time in 1911, later going to
Minneapolis.
