ANSWER FOR CRITICS OF WAR RISK BUREAU Victimized Oftcner Than It Blunders, Says Dr. Carl Kelscy The pulillo hears a great deal about poor persons who havo not been paid their war allotments by the Government, but Utile Is said of tho thousands re ceiving from tho Government monev they are not entitled to. Tills tllOUKllt Win nrannutiMl 1... n "rI h-elsey. professor in the AVharton school of KInnnee, In charge of the war risk Insurance bureau for Pennsyl anla, New Jersey nnd Delaware. Doc tor Kelsey spolto today before the Civic Club In an effort to explain the Gov ernment's provision for tho dependents of soldiers and sailors. "The hiarvet of It all !s that, despite the complicated methods and the millions of requisites and letters that flood tho Government offices, 9G per cent of the allotments are being paid to the proper families without ary trouble. "All tho trouble over ullotments does not rest with tho Go eminent," smiled Doctor Kelsey, as ho further explained. "Some men forgot they had wives when then, enlisted. Somo wrote so llleirfhlv that amcs and addresses could not ! mado out. Somo tew mado out their al-' " "' ' ' , ... . WCre not tnelr wives. Many families lme moved with. out notifying the department at Wash-I Ington. 'Ttlght now I have the names of more ' than 100 families In Philadelphia who! should bo receiving clicks and I can't find them on tho face of tho earth. "Thero are, of course, a number of mistakes In tho Government offices. It I is Inevitable In any scheme. Imagine ' ' r "ee men or the same name, from the same town. In tho same com pany, all of whom made out requisitions for allotments to their families. You know some confusion Is bound to re sult." i "You heat- a few stories of distress from families of men In service. But I could tell you ten times as many as , ngalnat these, self-advertised ones. You ' hear that Mrs, Mary Jones on your street Is destitute and hasn't received i her payments for three months, and you j blame the Government. You don't know that that cheek has been going out I regularly, but some other Mrs. Mary i Jones hns been getting It lately nnd she cashed It and said nothing about it to ' authorities though she knew It was not ! hers. "You don't hear about the poor work- ' man, discharged from the army months ago, who Is still receiving and using I tho money alloted to his family while ' he was In service. Wo could prosecute him becauso that money no longer be- longs to hm andho must know It. But the Qovernmerit has not prosecuted, be cause he was poor and Ignorant. Doctor Kelsey urged tho women to turn all complaints Into tho home service section of Red Crooa which was organized to care for such emergencies. Mrs. John Newbold, Jr., speaking for tho after-care committee of, lied Cross, explained that they were taking care of thousands of such cases In Phila delphia. ENSIGN HOME WITH BRIDE Edward B.
