ADDITIONAL RULINGS ON
REINSTATEMENT.

A series of decisions issued b,
the Director Of the Bureau of Wa
Risk insurance with the approva
of the Secretary Of the Treasur,
provides more liberal conditions
for reinstateent Of lapsed or can
celed insurance.
The provisions of, Treasury De
cision No. AZ, allowing eighteen
months from the date Of discharge
for reinstatement upon paymer'
of only two months premiums or
the amount Of insurance to be re
instated, are retained. That de
cision is liberalized, however, by
new provision that men out OF
the service are permitted to rein
state by merely paying the two
months premiums without max.
ing a statement as to health at
any time within three calendar
months following the month of
discharge.
After the three months follow
ing the date Of discharge have
elapsed, a statement from the ap-
plicant to the effect that he is in
as good health as at the date Of
discharge or at the expiration Of
the grace period, whichever is the
later date. will be required to-
gether with a written application
for reinstatement and the tender
Of two months premiums on the
amount Of insurance he wishes to
reinstate-
In order to give all former
service men whose insurance has
lapsed or been Cancelled. a fair
chance to reinstate their insur-
ance, including men who have
been out of the service eighteen
months or more, and who are
therefore barred from reinstate-
ment under the former ruling,
special blanket ruling is made
which ALLOWS all ex-service men
to reinstate their insurance be-
fore December 81, 1919. provided
that each applicant is in as good
health as at date of discharge or
at expiration Of the grace period.
whichever is the later date, and
30 states in his application. OF
course it is necessary that he ten

The amount of insurance he wishes
to reinstate.
Service men who re1ngtsted
their insurance by payment Of
al back premiums priod to July
.. 1919, when the decision re-
luiring payment Of only two
months premiums went into ef-
'ect, upon written application toI
he Bureau may have any prem
ums paid in excess Of two ap-
,lied toward the payment OF fu-
ure premiums. For example. if

tx months premiums instead of
wo, he may secure credit for four
1onths' premiums.
The provisions for reinstate-
lent do not protect a man until !

ealth as he was at the time of
ischarge and consequently may

 SCANLON PLEA
But A Different Opinion Is Held By Judge Hogan, Who
 Finds Him Guilty Despite the
 Arguments of Woman Red

M. J. (Mickey) Scanlon, I. W. w. organizer, will come before Judge John J. Logan this morning for sen tence as vagrant Scanlon was found guilty, following a brief hear ing yesterday, but refused to waive the time limit for sentence and was released until today on a $100 bond. It is said he probably will take an appeal to the superior court.
 A petticoated l. W. w. compatriot of Scanlon's, who gave her name as Mrs. B. Metcalf and vigorously ad- mitted being an organizer of WOb- plies, was the feature of yesterday mornings hearing. She informed the court that Scanlon was a regular em- plOyed organizer of the I. w. w. and hence no vagrant.
 Charles Bentley, who furnished the bond for Scanlon's release, also tes- tified that the man was an l. W. W.. organizer and brought along books of the union to show it.
 Scanlon declared his work" to be the "most lawful of any in the United States" and "as great an honor as recruiting for the army or navy"
 Mickey was not represented by an attorney, handling his own case.
