tay Stimson, Navy Secretary Knox,

Commerce Secretary Jones and

War Insurance Approved.
The House Banking Committee
approved a billion-dollar program
for inSuring property against air
raids and other enemy attacks, but
baked at proposals to'make part
OF the insurance free.
1t decided that premiums should
be charged at rate to be deter
mined by the Reconstruction FL
nance Corps War Damage Corp.
The premium plan was substitute
ed for Senate measure authoriz-
ing free insurance against losses
not exceeding $4,000. After the
Senate's approval Of its bill, there
was some murmuring in Congress
over free insurance of property while
soldiers and sailors were required
to pay for insurance on their lives.
To get the program started speed
lily, the House committee directed
that such insurance might be free
Tor a month or two-June 80 at the
latest-and that the r. r. G. would
be required to prepare rates based
on actuarial estimates.
The program, sponsored by Fed
eral Loan Administrator Jones, Is
designed to give every kind OF prop
erty owner reasonably priced pro-
lection against any kind of dam
age except sabotage resulting from
the war. 1t would apply specifically
to cargo shipments, but not in cases
where insurance could be obtained
through the Maritime Commission.

THE LANDSLIDE Of popu-

Moreover, the suit dress has
the trimness and rightness Of a
suit without the usual bulk.
The pair sketched have the
smart three-quarter sleeves, the
gracefully flaring skirt mot too

dress-up sparkle in the rhine

ALTHOUGH WE'VE never
had the opportunity TO don
white robes for sanctimonious
occasions at lodge, we have
heard the difficulty involved in
finding these white gowns in
midwinter.
Seemed like a darn good idea
TO us when local store stocked

Utility means durability Of
