I). S. INSURANCE CONTRIBUTED TO MORALE OF ARMY
Cost U. S. Only $1,500,000 to Write Insurance of $36,250,000,000. 'By Associated PrMl CHICAGO, Nnv. 11. It has cost the government only $1,600,000 to write $36,250,000,000 of insurance on the lives of soldiers and sailors within the last year, said Thomas B. Love, assistant secretary of the treasury, in an address here today before the association of life agency officers By its accomplishments in the short period of twelve months, the treasury's bureau of war risk insurance "has wrought the insurance miracle of doubling the volume of ordinary life insurance outstanding in the world," Mr. Love added. Describing the growth of the largest life insurance organization in the world, the largest disbursing institution, and the biggest government bureau with 14,000 employes, Secretary Love said, the result had contributed strongly to the morale of American troops abroad by giving them material assurance that their dependents were cared for during their absence, and would continue to receive assistance from the government in case of their death or injury. 18,000 Die In Camp. Secretary Love said that in the last two months more than 18,000 soldiers or sailors have died of Influenza in this country alone and insurances which the governments will pay to their beneficiaries will amount eventually to $170,000,000. Premium income collected from insured soldiers is estimated at $143,000,000 and up to Nov. 1, disbursements on account of deaths amounted to $4,102,000. These payments are distributed over a period of years, and the aggregate or commuted value of claims is $122,098,000. New insurance has been written at the rate of $2,750,000,000 a month or $92,000,000 a day and it is estimated that 95 percent of men in the army and navy are insured. "During the first year of its existence," said Mr. Love, "the bureau of war risk insurance handled more than 8.000,000 individual applications for insurance and allotments and allowances together besides many thousand compensation cases. It has been necessary to maintain more than thirty million individual card records and the work all told has involved literally hundreds of millions of separate clerical and administrative transactions." Errors had now been reduced to a minimum, he said, and there are comparatively few complaints from persons failing to receive proper allotment and allowance remittances.
