Veterans Insurance

Although liberal terms have been offered ex-
service men BY the government for the conversion
tf their term insurance into somesf form of per-
manent protection for themselves and dependents,
than three million who purchased insur-
ance during the war have taken this step.
cording to the United States Veterans Bureau in
urging that they take advantage of the opportun-
ty before the final date on which this may be done.
July 2.
Almost 100000 men are still carrying their term
insurance and paying premiums thereon and three
million have allowed theirs to lapse Many
of those in the latter group of the lib
cral provisions for reinstatement Of insurance Of
fered by the veterans bureau.
1t is impossible here to go into these provisions,
but it is necessary to draw the attention Of
ans to the opportunity they ignoring. The
government insurance is splendid thing and all
veterans who possibly can should become reinstatel
and convert their term coverage into perma-
nent protection under the very advantageous terms
available.

Airplanes Versus Airships

Controversy between proponents OF airpanes and
Of airships seems doomed 20 continue. Experts
disagree in their opinions 10 the comparative
value Of each. To the layman, however. thee
would seem little for controversy since each
would seem 10 supplement, the other.
For light loads at high speed the arplane would
seem supreme. while for heavier loads at a lower
speed the airshp would seem 20 have the best O.
it. There is need for both types Of air trans
portation, however and thus there should be no
conflict between them.
England realizes this and is turning TO the
airship for the backbone Of the system Of imperial
air communications being organized. In re-
cent report this projec, il pointed out thai;
the advantages Of the airshp for heavy loads

Parole of Criminals

While most students of crime conditions are
scoring the parole system and it's evil effects John
Philip Bramer, New York state parole custodian
and chairman Of the committee on pardon and
parole Of the American Prison association, comes
to it's defense with new book called Parole" in
which he declares that the method is sound, but
thxS it is misunderstood, mishandled and man.
1lqed. He points OF that mass treatment of de-
snts on parole must give way to highly in
ualized effort, however, and that human be-
I1Ss cannot Re reformed wholesale, but can be re-
4aGxped as individuals
Psrole as complement to an indeterminate SEN
:tsnee, is fundamental to the protection Of society
and the intelligent treatment of the lawbreaker.
The parole system seems fundamentally sound, bu.
has suffered condemnation in recent years. no doubt
because Of poor administration Of it's provisions
Certainly il we are to keep the parole plan in OPP
eration it will be necessary to reconstruct it some
what to bring it in sympathy with advancing ideas
on the subject Of punishment.
