Grams to revise bureau policies.
The d. A. v. urged a year ago that
the bureau launch a campaign to ap-
prise veterans of their right to rein
state and convert insurance policies
before the expiration of the time limit
last July. The success of this move

$4,000 former service men got their
respective policies in shape before the
last chance was lost. Now the D. A.

man be furnished an individual notice

1t was stated definitely at the

the coming drive Is successful it will
be necessary for the department to
abandon it's iiason service, which is
maintained at 1540 l street to assist

of this city have been assisted by this
service, which is supported entirely
from the proceeds of the annual For

No part of the proceeds from the
drive Will so to salaries for workers,
the fun returns being for the benefit
