This insurance is to be arranged by
the government. not by private agen-

write insurance on many wounded
men.
The government will arrange to
collect premiums monthly If men
wish to pay this way. or for longer
periods in advance. This may be
done through postoffices. The mini
mum amount OF insurance to be is
sued probably will be $1,000 and the
maximum $4,000, with any amount
between those sums in multiples OF
$500. There Will be provision for
payments in case of disability as well

plan. The insurance may be pur-
