News for Returning Vets

An eight-page pamphlet entitled, Keep Up Your G.I. Insurance" has been published by the Connecticut Veterans Unemployment and Ad- visory Commission and is now ready for distribution to veterans at their local Veterans Advisory Service Centers or at the Commis- sion's office in the State Armory, Hartford, Director James M. Quinn announced today.
 In brief form the pamphlet gives comprehensive information in re- gard to G.I. Insurance, informing the ex-servicemen how they can Ob- tain government insurance, rein state lapsed insurance and how to convert temporary policies into permanent ones. Vital information on costs of various types of poli- cies, rights and benefits in regard to insurance enjoyed by veterans under the CT. Bill of Rights, the various types of insurance avail able and the different plans under which beneficiaries are able to col 1ect the principal after the death of the veteran, are outlined.
 The information contained in this
 pamphlet is invaluable to every former member of the Armed Fore
 es and General Quinn urges all vet erans to call at their local Veterans Advisory Service Centers and ob- tain their copies at their earliest convenience.
 General Quinn also pointed out the fact that the time limit in which veterans may reinstate lapsed G.I. insurance without phy- sical examinations has been ex- tended by the Veterans Administra- ton to August l, 1947, and urges all veterans. who have dropped their government insurance, to con- sider reinstatement before that date.
