Time for Insurance
May Take Up Lapsed Policies
Nine Months After
Rehabilitation
NeW York Tribune
WoShfuUtOn Bureau

New York Tribune
Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON May PA new rul
ing on government insurance. which
permits nine months to elapse before
the insurance of service man is can
celled for non-payment of premiums,
was announced by Secretary Of the
Treasury Glass tonight.
Premiums on government insurance
are due on the first day of the month
following discharge, but may be made
any time during the month. If this
premium remains unpaid, two more
months are allowed before the policy
is held as lapsed for non-payment of
premiums.
During these three months the SER
vice man may renew his policy by pay
ing up back premiums and giving his
personal statement that he is in as
good health and as sound physical con-
dition as he was at the time of his
discharge.
Under the new rule the ensuing six
months also are allowed in which in
surance may be reinstated upon pay
ment of the aggregate of premiums
due provided a physicians certificate
is submitted showing the applicant is
still in sound physical condition.

den1ic training; whether they came
from the East or the West, North or

counted then and counts now. America
is not only a greater nation by reason
of the devotion of her mingled sons,
but she is more self-conscious: she
knows Of new sources of strength, and
counts more confidently upon her
future, because of the qualities which
she has discovered in the men and
women born and reared under her
institutions.

successful the clock-like and mechan-

Hosts of welfare workers have done
things that have had a most salutary
and beneficial effect upon our men in

emplification of altruism.
~. The nation owes a debt Of graft
tude to these societies and individuals
for their unwaverng devotion to this
work which has borne such splendid
fruit in the results accomplished.
rs. The Secretary Of War deires that
you convey to each of these organiza-
tons, and as far as may be practicable
to all of the individuals concerned, his
gratitude and hearty appreciation Of
the services performed, and he desires
that you express to each the hope that
all this effort may crystalline into per-

Secretary Baker said, at a speed no
less remarkable than that with which
the troops were sent to France. The
greatest number of troops embarked
for abroad in any one month, he said,
was 100000, and when the end of the
present month came, $4,000 American
soldiers would have started home dur
ing its thirty-one days.
In sending the troops to France, he
said, British tonnage was employed
chiefly, but in getting them home most
OF the ships used flew the American
flag. One million, two hundred thou
sand men had left France, Secretary
Baker said; the War Department was
three months ahead OF Its schedule
and $30o,000,OOO would be saved in con-
sequence.
Secretary Baker said, in part:

and sea is our common possession and
our common pride. 1t mattered moth
