East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1919-09-18

: Secretary of the Treasury Carter
Glass. on July 25. signed decision
of momentous Importance and inter
est to discharged soldiers. sailors and
marines.
In the decision 1T. D. ~, W. R.) the
secretary ruled that discharged sol
1tliers. sailors and marines who have
dropped or cancelled their insurance
may reinstate it within eighteen
months after discharge without pay
ing the back premiums All they will
be asked to pay win be the premium
on the amount of insurance to be re-
instated for the month of grace in
which they were covered and for the
current month.
Thus, for example, if a man drop
ped $4,000 of insurance in January,
1919. and applies for reinstatement
she LIST of September for $500. all
he will have TO pay will be the prem
ium for January (the month of
Rrace) on $4,000 and the premium for
September on $1,000. Or, if he ap-
plies for reinstatement of the full
$4,000, he will pay a total of two
months premiums on $4,000, one
for January and none for September.
He will not have to pay premiums in
either case for the intervening months.
The decision stipulates that the for
mer service man applying for rein
statement be in as good health as at
date of discharge.
Former Treasury Decision As, W.
r., and other prior regulations in
conflict with the new decision are re-
voked.
! Director r. C. Cholmeley-J Jones, of
the Bureau of War Risk Insurance,
following the signing of the decision
made the following statement:
The present decision is one of the
most important to former service
men that has been made in the his
tory of the bureau.
Many service men have been de-
TERED from availing themselves of
the former and less liberal reinstate-
1nent privileges by reason of the rel
atively large amoutn of money rep
resented by accumulated overdue
premiums. and because it would seem
that they were paving for something
that they never actually had, which,
in fact. was the case.
Under the new decision man is
relieved of the burden of overdue
premiums. He has an opportunity to
rehabilitate himself financially after
getting out of the army. navy or ma
rine corps, and to reinstate his insur-
ance at any time within is months
following discharge without the bur-
den of paying large amount of mon
ey.
''The reason payment for the month

any payment.
"Therefore. 1 urge that care be ta-
ken to make clear to every former SER
vice man who has dropped his insur-
ance that the new ruling does not au-
tamaticaliy reinstate him, and to im-
press upon him that no will be with
out insurance until he Voluntarily ap-
plies for and secures reinstatement
He should Immediately apply for re-
instatement for his own protection
and that of his dependents.
Don't forget that men die or be-
come disabled in peace time as well
as in war time, and that If man
waits he may not be In as good health
as he was at the time of his discharge
and consequently may not be able to
secure reinstatement.
'pon't put off reinstatement. Do 1t
now.
"If the policyholder Is unable to keep
the fun amount of War Risk Insur-
ance he carried while in the service,
he may reinstate part of it from ST.
600 up to $4,000, in multiples of
$500. Reductions may be made in
multiples of soc to any amount, but
not less than $1,000. Premiums are
due on the first of the month. al
though payments may be made any
time during the calendar month.
Premiums should be paid by check,
draft, or money order payable to the
Treasurer of the United States, and
sent to the Premium Receipt Section,
Bureau of War Risk Insurance. WASH

Sharks are so plentiful that one Flori-
da concern recently caught TAI in

flesh is so good that when people
have tried it once it needs no camou-
flage or trade name.

Available Sugar Statistics.

Sugar available for distribution in
the United States for 1888. accord
ing to statements before the Senate
subcommittee. was estimated to be
1855 900. 900 pounds. while the total
consumption for the same period was
estimated at S.790.000.00 pounds. an
excess of about 1865. 100000 pounds
available above total estimated con-
sumption. While no direct statement
has been made by any one to that eff
feet from statements emanating from
various sources the inference is drawn
that approximately a billion pounds
of sugar now is held, pending a stabi-
lization of price conditions, etc. and
that something like that amount
probably will be placed on the mar
ket under the new terms suggested
by the Attorney General.
Total sugar production. beet and
cane, of the United States for the

200. 100000 pounds, of which $751;
