SHORT TIME LEFT
 FOR REINSTATING
 YOUR INSURANCE
By SID HOUSTON.

Have you reinstated your War Risk Insurance
 As has been announced for some time July 1 will be the last day of grace for many of us and even should the bureau extend the time it is not likely that reinstatement after that time will be permitted without a phy- sical examination which is unneces- sary now.
 Anyone may require War Risk h. surance at any time before July 1, or IS months after discharge, if that be a later date. For great many July 1 is the latest date.
 To reinstate the applicant must state on his application that he is in good health as at the time of his dis charge-but no physicians certificate is necessary must pay two months premium. If he cares to re- instate his term insurance and convert it to regular policy he must pay one month premium of the term insurance
 and the first annual, semi-annual, quarterly or monthly premium, as the case may be, of the converted policy selected.
 Billions Have Lapsed.
 Thousands of men have allowed their insurance to lapse until the amount of lapsed insurance reaches a total of something like ,O00,0O0,OOO The War Risk Bureau is working with the American Legion and other vet erans' organizations in an effort to get the most of this amount reinstated. Under new law passed by the last Congress converted insurance is now payable in lump sum at death and the list of beneficiaries has been en- larged to include any of the following:
 Parent grandparent, step-parent, wife Or husband, child, step-child, adopted child, grandchild, brother, sister, half-brother, half-sister, broth CT through adoption, sister through adoption, step-brother, step-sister, parent through adoption, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece, brother-in-law, sister in-law; persons who have stood in the relation of a parent to you for a period of one year or more prior to your enlistment or induction, or the child or children of such persons; par ent, grandparent, step-parent, Or par ent through adoption of your wife or husband.

RETALIATION OF
 CANADIANS AND S.. TANKS PLANNED

Winnepeg, Canada.-To furthe, promote a spirit of good feeling be, tween Canada and the United States the executive council of the Great War Veterans Association here has adopt
 ed resolution recommending that negotiation be opened with the Amer ican Legion and the G. A. R. with the object of effecting a close utilization if not physical union, of the American with the Canadian veterans organi- zation.
 It is believed such an utilization will do more to ucheckmate the Americans and British who are attempting to raise barrier of hatred between the two nations than anything else.
 The resolution adopted by the execu- tive council here will be submitted to the national organization of the Great War Veterans Association and, ac- cording to local veterans officials, its adoption by that body is a foregonc conclusion. The announced purpose of the movement is to keep alive and develop the friendship between the "doughboy" and "Canuck" that grew out of their association in the trench es.
 No Hostility Between Vets. "There are people and newspapers who are trying to foment strife be- tween British and the United States" said Leo Ward, president of the vet erans' council,in urging the adoption of the resolution by that body. "But they are reckoning without the men of this country and the men of the United States who fought side by side against the common enemy overseas. There is no hostility between us, and it would be we'll that we let the world know there is none by joining to- gether in one great Anglo-Saxon War Veterans Association"
