Arrnistice Speeds
Insurance Plans
For War Veterans
All Men With Policies to
Get Chance to Change
to Peace SYSTEM
Women Eligible, Too
Members of Nurse Corps to
Have Same Rights as Sol
diers and Sailors

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Prepara-
lions by the government for reinsur-
;pgs the lives of soldiers and sailors
on their return have been fastened by
the signing of the armistice.
II is certain each Of the 4,250,000
men in the military or naval service
now holding voluntary government in
surance. will be permitted within five
years after peace to convert it with
out further medical examination into
ordinary life, twenty payment life en-
dowment maturing at the age of sixty
two, or other prescribed forms.
This insurance will be arranged bv
the government. not by private com
uanies. The cost is expected to be at
east one-fourth less than similar
forms offered by private agencies, be-
cause the government will pay all over
head expenses, which for private COM
vanies is II per cent of premium re-
cepts; will save solicitation fees and
bear the risk resulting from wounding
or weakening of men while in service.
The government will arrange to COL
lsct premiums monthly or for longer
periods in advance. This may be done
through postoffices. The minimum in
surance to be issued probably will be
$1,000 and the maximum $4,000, with
amounts between those sums in multi
lies of $500. There will be provision
for payments in case Of disability as
veil as death, according to the tenta-
tive plan.
The insurance may be purchased by
y
women members of the army or navy
nurse corps if they already hold gov
eminent voluntary life insurance.
About 95 per cent. of the 4,500.000
men in the service are covered by this
back to civilian life and cease paying
premiums.
This is the system devised to replace
the old pension plan.
Thus will be created ont the govern
ment's emergency war insurance bu-
reau the greatest life insurance insti-
iution in the world for peace times.
Out of the experience gained may
syentualy develop expansion of gov
eminent insurance to old age, to in
dastrial and other forms of insurance,
aficals say.
Regulations for reinsuring returning
soldiers and sailors are being framed
by an advisory board. consisting of
Arthur Hunter, actuary of the New
York Life Insurance Company; w. A.
Fraser, of Omaha. of the Woodmen Of
the World, and F. Robertson Jones, Of
the workmens compensation publicity
bureau, Of New York.
Plans also are under consideration
for allowing beneficiaries of men who
have died or have been killed in the
service to choose between taking
monthly payments over a period Of
twenty years OF to commute these pay
ments in lump sum.

WAYS THAT ARE DARK

FL PASO, Texas, Jan. All ot the tricks which smugglers have used in the past to get contraband goods. ammunition and jewelry in and out of Mexico are now being employed to get contraband foodstuffs into Mex ico through this port. False bottoms in trunks, wagons and automobile trucks with two floors and peddlers' carts with false partitions are some of the devices resorted to by the men who would evade the food embargo Recently large quantity of lard and sugar, prohibited articles, were dis covered under a pile of merchandise on commission brokers float The goods were confiscated and the brok- CTS license revoked. It is believed much of the smuggled contraband is being sent to Germans in Mexico.

PHOENIX, Jan. 7-Thc skeleton of the sHuntC Campbell gubernatorial
 contest was rattled again when the counsel for cx-de facto Gov Camp,
 bell, filed motion in the Supreme
 court this afternoon asking for re-
 hearing of the case.
 With the undisturbed lapse of fl of
 the Is days following the decision of
 the high court, 1t had been taken for
 granted that the matter was settled for good. Today marks the close of the Is days during which motions for rehearing can be made, and Judge Sloan, together with his assistants, worked until almost the last minute to get the legal papers to the clerk of the Supreme court on time.
 As has been the case throughout the long recounting and trial in the lower court, Douglas precinct No. l forms the backbone of the attack of the Campbell attorneys in their mo- ton for a re-hcaring.
 The brief sets forth the contention that the Supreme court erred in stat ing that Douglas precinct No. is not a separate precinct as a unity. The records show, according to the brief, that the election officials of this precinct didn't live in the precinct and further, that they went to other precincts to cast their own votes. That the boundaries of Douglas No. l were laid down and determined by the board of supervisors, as were the additional six precincts in Douglas Each is as separate precinct as any other precinct in the state, it is con- tended.
 Other points cited in the brief are as follows:
 That the Supreme court erred in stating that the election board oi Douglas No. l was made mp of Democrats and Republicans together. The records show that all were Democrats Also that all of the |, clerks of the board were Democrats, with the exception of c. R. Walters, who although he swore that he was registered as Republican, is shown on the records of Cochisc county to have registered as an independent.
 That the court erred that this ille gality could have been corrected by ' a mandamus, as these officials were not appointed by the board of super visors, but were "filibustering" volun- ! teers. It would have been impossible to have ejected them by mandamus proceedings after they had taken charge.
 The Supreme court has stated tha.
