INSURANCE FOR EVERY
FIGHTER.

The Treasury Department is
making every effort to have every
member of Americas fighting for
ces take advantage Of the Gov
ernment-insurance plan, which
Secretary McAdoo asserts to be
<'the most just and humane pro.
vision ever made by any nation
for its soldiers and sailors"
The purpose is rapidly being
achieved, the insurance having
passed the third billion mark in
the total Of policies written, and
there are many military units in
which every member has taken in
Surance.
The automatic insurance pro-
vided by the law is only partial
and limited protection, payable
only to wife, child, or widowed
mother and ceases after February
12, 1918. It is important, there
fore, not only to the soldiers and
sailors Of the country but to their
families and dependents, that be-
fore that date they avail them
selves of the full Government pro-
lection. which can 60 as high as
$4,000 and is payable to a wife,
husband. child, grandchild, par
ont hrothe or sister
The law also provides for the
rceducation and rehabilitation Of
the totally disabled and monthly
compensation to those, disabled.

AT about the time he expected to ar
