Do me a favor and drop a note
in the mail with the answer TO
these questions:
/. Have you converted your ma
tional service term insurance to q
permanent form. and II 50. when?
2. How long did 1t take to get
the deal completed with the VA?
3. Have you been getting insur-
ance premium due notices and re-
ceipts on time?
4. II so. since when? II not.
how late do they arrive?
5. Do you have any major grippe
about your current insurance
dealings with the VA?
Just those five questions an
swered on a penny post card. I'd
like to check your answers with
the following information. con-
sisting of figures recently gath
cred by the VA on current insur-
ance operations:
According to these figures lthey
ARE absolutely officiaD the VA is
now just on the e dge OF the woods
it's been trying to get out OF ever
since ls45. If improvements con-
tinue, VAS insurance business, the
largest In the world. will soon be
on a current, day-to-day basis.
These figures show the improve
ments.
Backlog Dro ps TO 1883.
On February 2B. 1947. VA says.
branch Offices had 1872, 1888 appli-
cations for conversion from term
to permanent form insurance. A
year later these had been reduced
| to 5000. This last February only
1855 applications remained to be
processed. of which 10000 conldnt
be handled for lack Of adequate
information from the veteran.
So the backlog has been reduced
to 10 days work (the VA handles
875 conversions a day..
That's a notable Improvement
but 1t should be remembered thai
the rate of applications is falling
of, too, making it easier to reduce
the backlog.
On February 20, l947. the VA
had just under 100000 applica-
tions for reinstatement Of lapseo
NSLI. A year later 10000 were or
hand. Last February 20 this had
been reduced to about $4,000. q
Today job Of work.
But again. the rate OF applica-
tions is going down.
On February 20. l947. the VA
had 373,539 letters from veterans
which needed answering. ) They
had been piling UP, little by little
ever since rehabilitation released
millions of veterans hungry foY
insurance information.
A year later the unanswered let
ters had been cut to a third and
last February only $4,000 re-
mained, . normal seven-day out
