viewed as part of a bunch of invest ments-part of long range plan to secure the future"
 I thought that over and decided the VA man had something. wondered what effect the lump sum provision in the new law would have on veterans keeping and re- instating their insurance. The VA man broke in on my thoughts.
 Actually" he said, T don't be lieve as many as half of all com mercial insurance policy holders want their insurance paid off :n lump sums when they die. Why? Because they'd rather be sure their beneficiary will have certain amount of money coming in every month for a specific number of months. They're little leery of having the whole face value of the policy paid out in a lump sum, and then dissipated in maybe a few years, or even months.
 That often happens, and then the beneficiary is left with no in- come at all"
 Probably the insurance man was right, but it seems as though he was overlooking one thing. If guy has large insurance policy, say Sl0,000, then he'd be likely to want it paid out in small installments.
 But if he had only small amount, two or three thousand, he'd surely want it paid in lump sum. because the installments would be so small they wouldn't keep his beneficiary in cigarettes.
 Actually, the new lump sum pro- vision probably will persuade many vets to keep their NSLI-vets who otherwise would have let it drop.
 So will the new disability benefit provision, which will pay a veteran S5 a mouth for every thousand dol- lars of insurance he has during any time he's totally disabled and un- able to earn a living. The five bucks don't start coming in until the insured has been disabled for six months.
 To get this added protection we veterans have to pay a small, extra premium. This extra premium amounts to only two or three bucks a year per thousand of insurance, depending upon the type of policy We have and our age at the time we take out the added coverage.
 Another column will be on the newest changes relating to our GI insurance.

There's lot of insurance talk III the wind these days-all about the new amendments to the National Service Life Insurance Act. These amendments were signed by Presi- dent Truman August l. How they're going to work out furnishes plenty of Veterans Guide material.

It's like the little boy who wanted chocolate cake for breakfast. He plaques and plagued his mother for it, so finally she bought a dozen large cakes and made him eat it three times a day. He couldn't stand it.

KAISER WONT BE RATED AS
 SACRED cow
Michigan Congressman Makes Issue of Defer
 red Payment of Loan

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Rep Bradley (R-Mich) complained to- day of New Deal sacred cows" and Get Rich Quick Wallingfords' dur ing an exchange with Henry J Kaiser, West Coast industrialist, at a hearing on wartime earnings of shipbuilding firms.
 I'm sure you don't mean me, Kaiser retorted.
 The exchange occurred before the House Merchant Marine committee after Bradley asserted that Kaiser had received preferential treatment from the government.
 Woodruff added that ''in typical Get Rich Quick Wallingford style" payment of s35 100000 on a govern ment loan to Kaiser had been put off for a period of 25 years"
 After saying he was certain that Bradley was not referring to him in talking about sacred cows, Kaiser protested what he called preferential government treatment to the U. s. Steel Company
 Earlier, a suggestion by Rep. Weichel (R-Ohio) that the House committee is seeking to shield the wartime 1 financial operations of the Maritime Commission brought sharp denial from Chairman Bland D-Va).

Hirohit0 Resented
 Move 10 Boost Toio
 Into w ar Council

TOKYO, Sept. 25.-Japanese mil itarists were so eager to push Hi deki Tojo. then general into the War Ministry, that they badly irri- tated Emperor Hirohito in l940, the War Crimes Commission heard to- day.
 The story came from the diary introduced as evidence-of Mar quis Koichi Kido, one of the de- fendants and formerly one of the emperor's closest advisors.
 Kido wrote that Hirohito told him he did not like the militarists approaching him secretly to recom- mend Tojo before Prince Konoye, as Premier, had completed his cab- inet, or accepted Tojo.

Doty Vs. Martin At Hartford

Hartford, Aug. 5-The bumper crowd of the outdoor boxing season in Hartford is expected to be on hand at the Hartford Auditorium outdoor arena Tuesday night when George (Red) Doty makes a bid to take the New England Welterweight crown from George Martin of Bos- ton.
 This bout has been set for F rounds, minimum distance for a championship match and it shapes up as the hardest test Doty has yet seen called upon to meet.
 This durable Hartford battler has been a busy fighter the past two years and has earned reputation for both giving punch and taking e. He is free mixer and because of that type of warfare has won a deserved reputation as crowd pleaser."
 On his last trip out Red" beat Roy Williams, the New York City Negro with the lethal right. Will Hams had been despatching all his opponents to dreamland in the early rounds and was, therefore the prebattle favorite but Doty turned in an upset.
 This win earned Doty the shot at Martin.

New York, Aug. - (UP) - The Cleveland Indians, attracting what may be officially recorded as the largest crowd ever to attend a ma- 1or league baseball game in the Uni ted States, Ie' mainly responsible yesterday for establishing the big gest Sunday gate receipts since June g.
 A total of 253,616 paying custom CTS saw the program of games in the two leagues with the Indians and their star pitcher, Bobby Teller, drawing a gate of 75,595 for a sched- uled double-header with the Yankees. The second game was rained out.
 | Except for an often disputed fig ure of 81,841 for the Yankees set in a Memorial Day double header at New York in 1888, there has been no other crowd to top the one which packed Cleveland's big lakefront municipal stadium yesterday. The Yankee crowd of 1888, which is not listed officially as a record in all major league books, is far beyond the seating capacity of the park.
 As usual, the American League outdrew the National with a total of 153,161 fans as compared with l00,455 for the four games in the senior circuit.
