Draft Ruling

Adjutant General George Mel.
Presson, the provost marshal OF
Maine, has received the following
reau War Risk Insurance, at Wash
ington. ID. c.:
Il beg to acknowledge the receipt
of your favor of the 25th instant,
making inquiry whether dependents
of men drafted and accepted into the
military and naval service. who are
not citizens of the United States, and
! whose dependents are citizens and
residents of allied or neutral coun-
tries, can make application for fam
lily allowance under the Insurance
Act. and also whether a soldier can
name such persons as his beneficlaries
under the War Risk Insurance.
There is no Limitation in. the act
as to the citizenship of de pendents
of the men IN The service. 1t is acr
cordinglya the opinion Of Ahe bureau
that a man IT'D the service may make
allotments and claim allowances for
his dependents in Glass A or Glass
E (See Section 204 Of the War Risk
Insurance Act irrespective of their
residence or citizenship. IT will, of
course, often happen that where they
are residents abroad there will be
considerable delay in the 0isburse-
ments being made.
The same opinion prevails as to
the naming of beneficiaries under the
War Risk Insurance. The only limi-
tation found in the act is that the per-
sons named as beneficiaries must be
within the permitted class specified
in Section 4O2, namely. spouse, child,
