INFORMATION ON
 WAR INSURANCE
BENEFICIARIES ARE NOT RE- CURED TO PROVE DEPEND ENCY IN ORDER TO SECURE PAYMENT.

There are several claimants in Pulaski county for war insurance. Carter Glass, secretary of the treas ury, has issued the following state ment with reference to it:
 Considerable confusion and much misunderstanding seems to prevail among the relatives and benefciaries of men in the military and naval service as to their rights under the War Risk Insurance Act. Many mothers and fathers named as bene- ficiaries of the government insurance applied for by their sons have gained the impression that they must prove dependency in order to receive pay ments of insurance. This is an en- tirely erroneous impression probably due to a confusion of the insurance and compensation provisions of the Act of Congress of October 6, 1917, and to a mistaken assumption that the terms Insurance" and "Compen- sation" are used interchangeably, whereas they represent two entirely separate and distinct benefits.
 "1nsurance is payable regardless of any dependency and a beneficiary designated in an application for gov ernment insurance if within the per- mitted class of spouse, child grand child, parent, brother, or sister is en- titled to receive the insurance in monthly installments without proving any dependency upon the insured.
 Compensation" however, which is separate and apart from insurance and takes the place of the pensions provided under the old pension system is payable only to a wife, child, de- pendent mother, or dependent father of a man who is disabled or dies as result of injury suffered or disease contracted in the line of duty while employed in the active service. Com pensation may be payable in addition to insurance, but a mother or father must prove actual dependency in order to receive monthly payments of compensation although they will re- ceive the insurance in monthly in stallments if named as the beneficiary thereof whether they are dependent or not.
 "No dependency need be shown by any beneficiary in order to receive the government insurance, but mother or father must prove actual depend ency upon their deceased son for the necessaries of life in order to re- ceive the additional payment of com pensation."

WEATHER.

Summary of weather and crop con- ditions in the cotton region for the week ending April 29, 1919.
 The week was favorable for plant ing cotton, which progressed nearly to the northern limits of the belt; but germination and growth continues slow inemany sections on account of low temperature and lack of moisture, particularly in central and eastern portions. Early cotton improved in Texas and later planted made satis- factory progress. Domination was rather poor, but recent moderate rains were beneficial. Corn, truck, and pastures need rain in many southern districts.
