and there is an epidemic every three
or four years.
DR.. Dauer said the number OF cases
here now is more than four times
the usual average, which is about Is
new cases a week, beginning in the
fall and disappearing in the spring.
The epidemic, DR.. Dauer said, is
not local. From reports he has re-
ceived through the United States
Public Health Service, there is a
vast increase in measles all over the
country.
The new gamma globulin, admin
istered hypodermically, is being given
as preventive measure to children
who have been exposed to the
disease. The Red Cross donates the
serum to the Health Department,
which in turn, gives it to Wash
ington physicians. The two-cubic
centimeter vial would cost about Sc
in drug store, DR.. Dauer said.
For the last seven weeks, DR..
Dauer'S chart shows the following
number of cases reported: Week of

Gil INSURANCE

Last week, the U. S. Supreme
Court rendered a decision which
failed to make much of a splash
in the headlines, but which saved
the National Service Life Insurance
fund a matter of hundreds of mil
lions of dollars, and gave the green
light toward plans for distributing
dividends to holders Of National
Service Life Insurance. 1t was
therefore a rather important deci-
sion as far as the World War II vet
Grams are concerned
The Supreme Court case concern
ed the claims of Mrs Tfllie zazove
of Chicago for increased insurance
payments as the beneficiary of Ma
tional Service Life insurance. Mrs.
Zazove had initially been awarded
monthly payments for life (the
amount of the payments being bas-
ed upon her age, with 100 INSTALL
ments being guaranteed in the evene
of her death prior to receiving at
least 100 payments. The payments
were in accordance with a mortal
ity table based upon average life
expectancy, and if the beneficiary
lived at least as long as the average
for her age, she would receive the
full face amount of the policy, plus
interest. If she lived longer, she
would receive more than the face
amount; if less, she and subsequent
heneficiaries would of course re-
ceive a lesser amount, the minimum
being 100 guaranteed installments
Attorneys for Mrs. Zazove con-
tended % that the full face amount
of the policy, plus interest, should
be paid and guaranteed over the
first 100 installments, and (2) that
if she outlived the ten-year period
she should continue to receive the
same monthly installments for life
The amount of the monthly install.
ments would of course, have to bt
increased in order that the full fact
amount of the policy could be paie
over the first ten-year period.
Mrs. Zazove's ingenious contention
was upheld by the Circuit Court o.
Appeals. The government, facet
with huge potential deficit il

fund. appealed to the court of las
resort. which reversed the lowe
courts decision in favor of tn
claimant, on the ground that Con
gress never had intended such
mode of payment The Suprem
Court ruling appears to be clea
and logical Mrs. Zazove's argu
ments, while clever and ingenious
