To RE|NSURE men
IN WAR SERVICE
Signing of Armistice Hastens
Plan Given Five Years
to Apply.
RATES WILL BE CHEAP

Preparations by the government fol
reinsuring the lives Of soldiers and
sailors on their return have been
FASTENED by the signing Of the arms
tice. Although regulations have not
yet been fully drafted, it is certain
that each of the 4,250,000 men in the
military or naval service now hold
ing voluntary government insurance
will be permitted within five years
after peace is declared to convert II
without further medical examination
into ordinary life. twenty payment
life, endowment at the age Of sixty
two or other prescribed forms OF in
SurAnce.
Will Save Men Money.
This insurance will be arranged by
the government, not by private COM
panies. and the cost is expected to be
forms offered by private agencies. The
low cost will result from the fact that
the government will pay all overhead
administration expenses, which for
private companies amounts to IT per
cent Of premium receipts; will save
the usual solicitation fees and in ad-
dition bear the risk resulting from,
while in the service. Private COM
panies would not write insurance on
many wounded men. or their rates
would be unusually high.
The government Will arrange to
collect premiums monthly, if mon
wish to Fay that way. or for longer
periods in advance This may be
mum amount of insurance to be
issued probably will be $1,000. and
the maximum. $4,000, with any
amount between those sums in multi
pies OF $500. There will, be provision
for payments in case OF disability as
tive plan.
Persons Who Are Eligible.
Tho insurance may be purchased
by any soldier, sailor or marine-of-
icer or enlisted man-end by woman
members of the Army or Navy Nurse
Corps. provided they already hold
About 95 per cent Of the 4.500.0ou
men in the service are covered by
this insurance. which expires after
they go back to civilian life and cease
paying premiums. This is the sys-
TEN devised to replace the old PEN
sion plan Of providing for ex-soldters
and sailors.
Thus will be created out of the gov
ernment's emergency war insurance
bureau the greatest life insurance in
stitution in the world for peace times
with more policy holders and greater
aggregate risks than half a dozen OF
the worlds biggest private companies
combined. Out Of the experience
gained may eventually develop ex-
pansion Of government insurance to old
age, Industrial and other forms of in
surance, in the opinion OF officials who
have studied the subject.
Regulations Being Framed.
Regulations for reinsuring return
ing soldiers and sailors are being
framed by an, advisory board to the
military end naval section of the war
risk bureau, consisting of Arthur
Hunter, actuary Of the New York Life
insurance Company; w. A. Fraser
Omaha, OF the Woodmen Of the World
and r. Robertson Jones of the work
mems compensation publicity bureau
New York.
Plans also are under consideration
for allowing beneficiaries of men who
have died or been killed in the service
to choose between taking monthly
payments over a period of twenty
years or to commute these payments

Committee Reports to Con-

Utilities Commissioners.
RAILROADS SUGGESTED

Complete elimination Of railway ex.
press companies was demanded in
majority report by the committee
on express and other contract car
riers by rail- to the National Associa-
ton Of Railway and Utilities Commits
sioners at their meeting this morning.
The report was read by the chairman,
Royal c. Dunn of Florida.
Mr.. Dunn said the functions of. the
express companies should be per-
formed by the railroads He said the
express companies were wholly I'M
necessary in tho industrial system Of
the nation. He saw no reason for
dividing the carrying business be-
tween two organisations and splitting
the revenue when one organization
could do better service and get bet
ter results for the public at a mate
rally decreased outlay.
Economy Is Argument.
The report states that the business
could be done with much greater econ-
omy by the railways divorced from the
express companies.
Commissioner Thomas Yapp Of Min
nesota presented minority report
which disagreed with the conclusions
of his colleague.
This afternoon the convention will
60 on record on the question of whether
it would be advisable for the govern
fnent to continue to control and operate
the railways.
In his speech to tho commissioners
yesterday afternoon. Winthrop NJ.
Daniels. chairman OF the Interstate
Commerce. Commission. said the rail-
ways would. in his opinion, either be
operated entirely by the government
or by private organisations. The
commissioner said the present govern
ment management without govern
ment ownership would hardly be
suitable for peace times.
Would Continue Present Policies.
With restoration Of private man.
should be eliminated BY perpetuatIns
the railroad administrations plan
for curtailing unnecessary passenger
train schedules. on parallel roads, and
hauling freight over the shortest
routes. regardless of it's origin. Ter.
minal equipment facilities should be
used in common. regional consolida-
ton of parallel and competing lines
should BIO worked out, and govern
ment and regional tribunals should
be authorised to pass on proposed
railroad security issues to determine
the necessity Of new lines.
