Oil Heating Conversions
Will Not Be Permitted

Householders planning to convert
from coal to oil face rejection of
their applications for conversion,
the Petroleum Administration for
War warned today in reporting "an
alarming increase" in the number
of applications.
The agency said the increase was
due apparently to "a widespread
but erroneous impression fuel oil
will be more plentiful as a result of
the defeat of Germany" There is
no prospect of increasing the ci-
william allotment of home heating
oil before Japan is defeated, PAW
said.
During the last few months, ap-
plications for conversion in East
coast and Midwestern States have
increased about 36 per cent over
the same period year ago. 1.-THE
majority of these applications must
Of necessity be rejected" Deputy
PAW Director Ralph K. Davies de-
clared.
Conversion from coal to oil will
be allowed only in "very real emer-
gencies," PAW said, and even
though new oil burners may be
placed on the market, the situation
would not change.

May Get Regular Policies.
Veterans Of this war, like those OF
the World War, may convert their
National Service insurance into "reg-
ular" policies after the war without
further physical examination and
continue them in civilian life. The
law provides for conversion into
ordinary life, Repayment or 30-pay-
ment insurance. No endowment
policies are available under the act.
Endowment insurance could be
chosen by veterans OF the last war
when they converted their war risk
insurance into United States Gov
ernment life policies.
The term insurance offered vet
Grams Of the last war expired gen.
orally July 2, 1927, but Congress
since has extended it for the fourth
five-year term. This term insurance
had to be renewed every five years,
with the premium rate fixed by
the age at the time of renewal.
Other converted policies - United
States Government insurance-such
as ordinary or tixed-payment life,
remain at their original premium
rates. The plan is substantially the
same for the newer National Service
insurance.
While private insurance companies
can compute the amounts they will
pay out in claims, at least to q
reasonable extent, on the basis OF
actuarial tables of mortality and dis
bility, the Government cannot make
even rough guess what it will cosl
to underwrite the risks of q war
Only fate can tell what casualties
each battle will bring. Since the
Government assumes the burden
solely to protect the dependents ol
soldiers, and fixes arbitrarily low
rate OF premium, the costs of in.

years by actuaries must be disre.
garded. Nor can postwar claims bt
estimated with such tables, since
many veterans necessarily will be
poorer risks than ordinary civilians
1t can be predicted with certainty
only that the insurance bill for this
war when finally added up will
greatly exceed the sum of the claim.
