GOVT INSURANCE
GOOD PROPOSITION
Director R. G Cholmcley-Jooee of

today that ■Ishnsding and la-
tateaaenta relative

ctrrulatd by individuals appar-
ragaged to atttwnpted "twtattog"
of lamraace. A speclSr and typical
repart received by tto Dim-tor waa a
the effect that mum* of three Individ
nets had hoarded a aaval veeeel at
Philadelphia and had told tto aaliors
that Goveraaarat Insurant* would not
be good after ive yeera.
"Government Life laaareaee for vet-
erans of the greet war Is a permanent
proposition." said Director Cbolmeley
Joaee. "Misleading statements have
been made to the effect that Govern-
ment Insurance will cease at the end
of live years after the war. or that it
will be turned over to private com pan
ice. Much statements are absolutely
false and without foundation. There
is, however, a requirement that the
temporary term insurance held during
the war which increased in wwd
year to year, be changed or converted
iuto one of the six permanent forms of
Government Life Insurance, (ordinary
life, an-paymeut life. ■ payment life.

Ave years after the formal declaration
of pence by priM-lamatiou of tlie Presi-
dent, if the insured desires to continue
to Im> protected. This permanent in-
surance does not increase in premium
coat aa the insured grows older.
"Improper <-ondnct by the individ-
uals I have referred to is in direct op-
puatiou to the attitude of the great life
insurance companies, which is embrac-
ed in a statement by the secretary of
one of the large companies, who recent-
ly said:
" 'Of course, a life insurance comp-
any cannot grant insurance at less
than <-ost, but the Government offers
Insurance to soldiers and sailors at less
than it would ••out, the Government to
grant that insurance (that is Itecause
the Government liears all expenses of
management, etc. i. The government is
justified in this lilwrality in consider-
ation of the fact that them* soldier*
and sailors have risked their Uvea, or
have heea will tag to rtak their Uvea,
