AIR STUNTS
BARRED

CTUNT flying has been barred
~ to all airplane pilots engaged
in transporting mail across the
United States. says a report re.
cetved here from the American
Air Transport Association. The
airmail pilot, 1t is stated, has
but one job to do-to leave his
home airport with mail pouches
at a certain minute and arrive at
the end of his route on schedule
time. BY adhering to this policy
the pilots in the airmail service
have established record for
efficiency that excels any other

It Is vastly better form for the

Reinstate Government Insurance
Now Says Local Legion in Appeal

War who have allowed their Govern
ment Insurance, the cheapest and best
available to service men, to lapse.
The Government agency handling this
matter is the United States Veterans
Bureau. The Minneapolis Regional
Office of this Bureau states that fully
60 per cent of the eligible men in
Minnesota, approximately 10000 in
number, have not taken advantage of
this benefit offered by the Govern
ment. According to the statements
of prominent local members of SER
vice organizations, there is no bene-
fit which the Government has pro-
vided for service men which is so ex-
tensive, and so productive of econ
omic good to service men as Gov
ernment Insurance.
From the standpoint of community
good it can be stated that veteran
who is a policy holder has removed
those who are dependent upon him
