QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

Q. I hold a World War Two
CT term policy. Is there any
deadline for converting my in
surance to one of the permanent
plans?
A. There is no deadline for
converting your World War Two
CT term insurance to a perma-
nent plan. You may continue
it as term insurance for as long
as you please. However, the long
er you keep your term insurance,
the higher the premiums will
be. Premiums on permanent
plans, on the ether hand, remain
constant and do not rise.

operations.
There's a need for tighten

by the league said one source

to remain unidentified. This

indicated the league might re-

able to form a more compact
