Letters Sent
Veterans About
Insurance AcctS.
Washington 25, D. c.

washington 70, u. e..
Thousands of letters are being
sent by the Veterans Administra-
tion to National Service Life In
surance policyholders asking their
help in Strengthening out tL,eir in
surance accounts, insurance Off
cials of VAS Richmond Branch of
flee reported Saturday.
The letters are going to veterans
throughout the Richmond branch
area which embraces Virginia,
Maryland, the District of Column
bia, North Carolina and West VIr-
ginia.
Veterans to whom the letters are
being sent are those whose insur-
ance records indicate that their
policies have lapsed because they
failed to make their premium pay
ments regularly, VA said.
In some cases, the necessary pre-
MUM payments have been made
by the veteran, however, VA has
failed to credit the payments in
these cases to the veterans account
for various reasons.
The letter being sent to veterans
whose policies apparently have
lapsed says, Without regard to
what the records of the Veterans
Administration presently indicate,
YOUR POLICY is NOT LAPSED
IF YOU HAVE RENTED
YOUR PREMIUMS REGULAR
LY."
The letter further states that
the policyholder should not be con-
cerned with the status of his insur-
ance unless he has failed to send
his premiums TO VA on time.
If the veteran receiving the let
ter believes VAS record of his ac-
count is in error, he is asked TO
furnish the Richmond Branch Of
fee with the dates and amounts of
remittances together with. other
pertinent data.
The information thus supplied by
the veteran will be of great assist
ance in getting his account up-to-
date in hurry, VA said.
Veterans in the Richmond branch
area who are recipients of these
letters should address their an
swers to the Insurance Service,
Collections Unit, Veterans Admin
istration, 900 North Lombardy ST.,
Richmond, Va.
Another reason for the backlog,
VA added, is that upwards of 49,
100000 remittances, applications,
and insurance letters were received
during the period that insurance
records were being transferred,
from New York City to the branch
offices throughout the country. G
The reverse side of VAS new
notification letter contains an ap-
plication blank for reinstatement.

Oklahoma Finally Goes Down

SAN FRANCISCO, (P) - The battleship Oklahoma went down for the last time Saturday.
 The once mighty survivor of a sinking in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor plunged to the bot ton early Saturday morning $40 miles out of Honolulu in an area of the Pacific approximately three miles deep.
 Abandoned by the navy as a fighting ship, the 33-year-old ves- sel was under tow to an Oakland, Calif., drydock ompany for scrapping.
 The coast guard announced there were no creWmen aboard.
 The Oklahoma, launched March 23, 1914, had been reported ear Her as listing badly and Young Brothers, Ltd, Honolulu agency which handled her purchase for scrap, had ordered the tugs Her cules and Monarch, who had the ship under tow, to return to Pearl Harbor rather than try to make the mainland. She left for Homo lulu last Saturday.
 Little of the Oklahoma's for mer might remained for her last voyage.
 Her superstructure, including her anti-aircraft batteries, her 10 l4-inch guns and 16 5-inch guns, were gone.
 Much of her machinery, how ever, including boilers, remained intact.
 Torpedoed from the air in the Japanese air attack at Pearl Har- Dor, the Oklahoma turned turtle in shallow water. She was righted and refloated in May, 1943, and rebuilt.
 The Moore Drydock Company of Oakland had purchased the
