DRAMA OF 6 MEN AND GIRL NOW
 BILL AT CAPITOL

Cclumbia's MT District Attorney" is an open and shut case for the psople. For the people who go to the movies, that is. Produced by Samuel Bischoff and currently play ing at the Capitol Theatre, the pie ture meets the constant demand for hard hitting melodrama.
 It's rugged yarn of six men and a girl. A girl whose touch made love and murder the same thing, whose creed-"Men are like cigar cites. when I'm through I toss 'em away'-will make her one of the most widely discussed leading lacies of the current season.
 Based upon the popular radio pro gram of the same name created by Phillips H. Lord. MT. District At torney' stars Dennis O'Keefe as an honest, hard-fighting young lawyer in love with the wrong woman; Adolphe Msnjou in the title role, far surpassing any acting job of his in recent years: lovely Marguerite Chapman in the strongest dramatic part of her bright career; and Mi chael O'Shea as a wise-cracking tut efficient assistant to the D.A.
 Forgotten Island of This is America" series, is the added short feature.

The Veterans Administration can not allow ex-service people who are totally disabled to reinstate their National Service Life Insurance.
 That would be something like in- surfing a house against fire after the first floor has burned up.
 Here is a story. reported here ex- actly as it was written to me.
 T only hope the writer said. that through this you can save some one else the heartbreak and worry that I went through.
 My husband went to a VA llospi- tai in February 1946 and died there in August that year. He had received his discharge in July 1945 and was awarded 10 percent disability rat ing as soon as he got out.
 Then in June 1946 his disability rating stepped up to 100 percent and dated back to February, when he had entered the hospital.
 "In August, just before he died he tried to reinstata his term NSLI, which he allowed to lapse when he was discharged. After his death I opened letter from the VA to him which said that his rein statement appeared to be allowable.
 But soon after that. when I ap- piled for payments of the insurance, the VA said that it had not taken into consideration the fact that my husband was rated totally disabled at the time he had tried to rein state his insurance. They told me that since he had been totally dis abled at that time the reinstate- ment could not be allowed.
 My husband died thinking that I was to receive his $l0,000 NSLI. l am not complaining because am convinced the VA was right in not allowing the reinstatement but I only wish you could explain this to others who may in the future be given the same transformation that my husband was"
 The transformation, of course, was the letter from the VA imply that reinstatement was possible. Ac- tually, it was never possible so long as the man remained totally dis abled.
 Why can't a totally disabled vet reinstate his term" insurance? Be-
