SOLDIER RELIEF
PLAN IS MADE
OVER YET AGAIN
New Idea Would Give Men Paid
Up Insurance
TO COST SIX BILLIONS
Expense Would &c Greater Than the
Bonus But Would Not Come
All q. One Time.

Washington, April 2S (By the Asso-
ciated Press Republican members
of the House ways and means commit
tee virtually decided today TO include
in their soldier relief legislation pro-
gram plan of paid up insurance, it's
value to increase annually by com
pounded interest and on which loans
would be obtained from any postoffce.
With this addition, ex-service men
might elect anyone of the five fol-
lowing plans included in the Republi-
can program.
A cash bonus of $125 a day for each
day of service; aid in buying farm
land, to be reclaimed by the govern
ment; aiding in buying city homes
and in education; or the insurance.
To popularize the last four plans the
Republicans propose to allow $1.75 a
day for each day Of service, instead OF
the SL25 cash bonus as the basis for
computing farm and home aid, loans
and the amount Of financial aid each
man might receive in the form of ed
ucational training.
The insurance plan as such was
said by committeeman to be a mis-
nomer' but they declared it was the
most attractive" OF any of the five
plans. The average period Of service
for World war veterans was 400 days
they said, explaining that under the in
surance plan the average veteran
could receive paid up insurance poll
cy of S1,S57 payable to HIM in cash
