Asks 1S-Month Period.
With this in mind the Secretary of
the Treasury recently made a ruling
that period Of eighteen months
would be allowed in which lapsed
policies may be reinstated. Pursuant
to the same policy 1 have made rec
changes in the act which will make
the policies more attractive.
Through the Secretary of the Treas
ury I have asked Congress to amend
the act so that the beneficiary class
of converted policies may include IN
cles. aunts. nephews. nieces and all
persons who have stood Gin loco pa

forces. and also that in case of the
death of the beneficiary before full
payment of the policy has been ac-
complished payment may be made to
the estate of the deceased beneficiary.
1 also have made recommendation
to Congress that. instead of the pres
ent method of paying policies in
monthly installments covering the
period of twenty years, the insured
be allowed the choice Of having
his policy paid to his beneficiary in
lump sum. in monthly installments
covering a period Of three years, or in
the present fashion stretching over
twenty years,
All the attractiveness Of the pol
icy and all the inheritant advan-
tages of government insurance will
be of no service to the boys unless
these facts are made known to each
of them personally.

From o'clock in the morning until

making there was personal work.

to him 1t was explained in detail; if
his attitude remained Indifferent all
the ingenuity of the insurance squad
was bent toward his conversion.
When.the campaign ended by statu-
tory limitations. on February H. more
than nine hundred million dollars
worth of insurance had been written
for the quarter million men then in
foreign service.
IN spite OF the assumption that no
man would be sent across in less time
than 100 days after entering the serv-
ice. such a vast number Of them did
go over in less time that the war
risk section in France succeeded in
getting through an Army order by
which every commanding officer fur

all men who had not been in the
service more than 40 days, together
with the names of those who had not
taken out their full $4,000 worth of
