McCulloch to Seek Two Year Premium Payment Amendment
Canton congressman McCulloch will propose an amendment to attach to the Sweet war risk insurance bill. The plan would have the government pay premiums for two years after discharge, drawing largely on funds already in Army and Navy premium accounts estimated at about 200.6 million dollars through January 30 1919 plus 50 million added since. At a rate based on federal actuaries the annual excess would be about 252 million, spread over 20 years under current beneficiary provisions.

Railro ade Men Deferr Strike Action After AFL Meeting
Washington August 30 The American Federation of Labor executive council adjourned after a three day session focusing on the Plumb plan for railroad nationalization. A ninety day pause was urged on the railroad shopmen strike while negotiations continue with the president. The council cautioned against broad action, stressing moderation amid the nation’s economic strain and labor unrest, including support for 125,000 cigar makers seeking higher wages. It was noted the Plumb plan would be studied further before a firm federation policy is set. The group fears September 2 could bring renewed work stoppages unless talks improve.
