There is, however, require ment that the temporary term insur- ance held during the war which in creased in cost from year to year be changed or, converted into one of the six permanent forms of Government Life Insurance Ordinary life, 20 payment life, 20 year endowment, 30 year endowment or endowment at age 26) within five years after the formal declaration of peace by proc lamation of the president, if the in- sured desires to continue to be pro- tected.

OliUe Poisoning is
 Up for v. s. Probe

Memphis, Feb. 10.-Federal probe into the shipment of poison olives that recently caused the death in Memphis of six persons will probably follow conference this morning be- tween Thomas J. Walsh, assistant United States District Attorney, and local authorities.
 At this conference information may be obtained as to the firm or firms that shipped the olives into Memphis. At any rate MT. Walsh said yesterday, it was violation of the federal pure food laws to make shipments of impure goods, and that in cases where dealers had purchas- ed them in the belief that they were pure, they were as liable as the firm selling them.
 During the war several shipments of similar goods were ordered de- stroyed by federal food administra- tors after they were found to be bad.
 While there is no certain authori- ty for rumor in Memphis, federal officers will make an investigation of firm in Alabama where it is be- lieved the poisoned olives came froms
 In the conference today will be Mayor Paine, who was United States food administrator for this part of Tennesse during the war How much information is to be made public is guess work, but MT. Walsh said yes terday that if any violations were found, and he believed there would be, the guilty parties will be arrest ed
 MT. Walsh will submit his findings to the United States Pure Food De- partment and special agents will then be assigned to the work and make a close investigation of the canned olive shipments.
