follow noweven in the midst of the tragedy of world

blessings God has bestowed upon blessings that are
better than peace of mind and prosperity OF enter

midst Of the greatest enterprise the spirits OF men have
ever entered upon have If we but observe reason

our own new light shines about us. The great
duties of new day day awaken new and greater

Insurance Law For Soldiers
Explained.

through the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance, has been charged
with the administration of the
War Insurance Law enacted by
the Congress as a measure of
justice to the men and women
who have been called to give
their lives, if need be, in the SER
vice of their country.
| wish to acquaint you with the
benefits and privileges which
your Government has placed at
your disposal. 1t is essential
that you and your families at
home should know of your and
their rights under this law in Or
der that full advantage may be-
taken of them.
To care for the wife and chill.
dren of the enlisted man during
his service, the War Insurance
Law compels him to contribute
UP to one-half of his pay for
their support. The Government
on application, will generously
add to this an allowance of from
$40 to SIS month, according to
the size of the family, More
over if the enlisted man will
make some further provision
himself for a dependent parent,
brother, sister, or grandchild,
they may be included in the Gov
ernment allowance.
If, as result of injuries iucur-
red or disease contracted in the
line of duty, an officer or enlisted
man or an Army or Navy nurse
should be disabled, provision is
made for compensation of from
$50 to 500 a month to him, and
should he die, compensation of
from $40 to SIS month will be
paid to his wife, his child, or his
widowed mother.
In order. however, fully to pro
tect each person and family,
Congress has made 1t possible.
for every soldier. sailor. and
nurse to obtain life and total
disability insurance. This in
surance applies to injuries receiy-
ed while he or she is in the SER
vice or after he or she shall have
left it.
Exposure to the extra dangers
of war makes the cost of life in
surance in private life insurance
Companies prohibitive. It was
therefore, a plain duty and obi
cation for the Government to as
sumo the risk of insuring hun
dreds of thousands of our soldiers
and sailors who are making the
supreme sacrifice. Under this
law, every soldier and sailor and
nurse, commissioned and enlisted
and of any age. has the right,
between now and February IL,
1918, to take out life and total
disability insurance up to $40, 600
at very low cost. with the Gov
ernment without medical exam
ination. This right is purely OPP
tional. The soldiers and sailors
are not compelled to take insur-
ance, but if they desire to exer-
else the right, they must do so
before tho 18th of Februtry, |
1913. The cost ranges from 65
cents monthly. at the age of Il,
to II. 20 monthly, at the age of
81. for each $1,000 of insurance.
This is a small CHARGE on mans
pay small in proportion TO the
benefits il may bring. The pre-
milims will be deducted from his
pay. if he desires. thus elimina-
ting trouble on his part.
To provide adequate protection
until February IL. 1918. during
the period when the soldiers and |
sailors are learning the details of
the law. the Government auto
matically insnres each man and
woman. commissioned or enlisted
in the military service of the

their rights through lack Of
knowledge. Full informa on
may be obtained from The Blu
reau Of War Risk Insurance Of
the Treasury Department. Wash
ngton, D. G, | earnestly urge
that the officers Of the Army and
Navy give to the men under
their command aIlpossible AID in
helping them to understand fully
the benefits that. this insurance
may bring totheir fanihes and
the small cost at which il may be
obtained.
This is the greatest measure or
protection ever Offered to lbs
fighting forces by any nation in
the history of the world II is
not charity; il is simply justice
to the enlisted men and women
and 10 their loved ones al home,
and each and every one of them
should promptly take the benefit
of this great law.

Secretary of the Treasury.
