the losses they are inflicting upon
themselves in permitting their Gov.
eminent insurance to lapse The
missionary work has had marked
effect, and the American Legion
has won recognition from the Vet.
Grams Bureau because of the ex.
cellent work that it has done.
Along with the insurance drive,
the Veterans Bureau announced
today that more than $50, 900 loans
have been made by it to ex-service
men since April /, with their adj
justed compensation certificates as
security. The amount of the loans
