Thousands of World War II vete-
FANS may lose the opportunity to

After July 81, veterans whose
NSLI term policies have been lapsed
more than three months must take
physical examinations to qualify as
insurable risks. Before August !,
veterans have only to sign a COM
parative health statement.
Eligible veterans may reinstate
any amount of term insurance up
to $4,000 in multiples of $500 re-
gardless of the length of time it
has been lapsed under present libe-
raj regulations If they apply before
August /.
They need only fill out a simple
application form, in which they GER
tify that their health is as good as
when the policy lapsed. and pay
| premiums for two months.
Authority OF n veterans Au-
ministration to provide automobiles
or other conveyances for veterans
of World War ii who in service
lost, or lost the use of, one or both
legs at or above the ankle, has been
extended until June 80, 1949.
The law granting vehicles to such
| disabled veterans had been schedul-
ed to expire June 80, 1948. The ex-
tension and an appropriation of ST.
100000 for the program were con-
tanned in the Second Deficiency APP
preparation Act for l948.
A veteran who qualities is entitl-
| ed to an automobile or other con-
veyance costing not more than ST.
| 600, including such special equip
ment or appliance as may be neces-
sary to enable him to operate the
vehicle safely.

chairman of the Louisiana State
PIMA committee, emphasizes the
way the Agricultural Conservation
Program operates. Every farmer in
every agricultural county in the
United States and insular posses

farmer who does cooperate-and
there are more than 3 million who
do-carries out needed conservation
practices on his own farm.
Every farm is a little different
