-X INSURANCE FQ* OUR SOLDIER BOYS G#vwiMiM*t Will Drop Pension Idea m i Provide Life Luiuraace—Prera- . - itt** Only $8 a ThouiMiRd Dollars— Depmutaftte Will Be Provided For. A bill of- unusual interest was in ' trodweed in both, iwaoee of Conem# last weak. I t is a bill to provide a war oomjwamt&oijt indemnity and life insurance fo r every fighting man in the service of the United States. If this hill becomes a law, it will do away with the pld pension system ‘ now in vogue and will provide an ad' equate fund to take care of families of men who are killed o r injured in the war. „ $8 Per $1000. The outstanding feature of the bill is the authorization of insurance for every fighting man and nurse a t the rate of $8 a year for each $1000 of insurance up to $10,000. It a man fails to make application for*insur­ ance on the $8 per $1000 plan, and is killed, the The $10,000 worth, of insurance for $80 a year, as-compared with stand­ ard rates of about $302 a year for - $10,000 for a man of 27, is possible because the government doesn’t re­ quire high priced salesmen, advertis­ ing and officers. . The b ill provides fo r the assign* ment of p a rt of each man’s pay to his family; for a separation allow­ ance tp be paid by the government; for a graduated scale of payments fo r to ta l.o r partial disability; for a 1 death indemnity and fo r the insur- . ance, ■ ■ Provision For Dependents. For separation support of depend­ ents, the bill provides that $15 of the > enlisted man’s $38 a month, go to his wife. I f there are two children, the government gives the wife-$32.50 a month in addition to that, making the minimum income $7.60. Five dol- lars additional is* allotted for each additional child. The father may give ’ more than $15 from his pay if hd wishes;' If the man’s father or mother is his dependent he gives $5 a month of his pay fo r that, and the government gives $10. Thiis a private with a wife, three children and a dependent moth­ e r can, by allotting $20 of his $33, get ;$47,50 from the government,“mak­ ing $67,50 a month for his depen­ dents. The bill provides that a man with­ out dependents o r who does not allot half of his pay, may be compelled by the government to deposit up to half his pay with the. government a t 4 per cent, interest, compounded semi-annu­ ally. I f total disability results from injury or disease, compensation runs ‘from a minimum of $40 to a max­ imum o f $75 a month fo r enlisted , men, and up. to $200 fo r higher .of­ ficers. An officer can’t receive dis- •ability allowance i f he receives re­ tirement p a y .. » Pay F o r Disability. If a man loses both legs and both arms in battle he ’would-’receive $40 a month; or, if he needed a nurse, $20 more. I f he had a dependent mother he’d get $10 more, If he later mar­ ried, he’d get $15 more, and for each • of the first two children by the mar- •riage $10 more, o t $105, He would be fitted with artificial arms and legs. I f he wanted to sta rt a store, he could collect a $1000 advance on his com­ pensation, to be paid back a t the. rate of $20/a month. If a man dies, his funeral expenses, no t to exceed $100, will be paid. If he leaves his Wife, tw6 children and his mother, they get $60 a month in * addition to the $5000 or $10,000 insur­ ance he may carry a t $8 per $1000, ” Hold Policy After War. . After a soldier leaves the service he can retain his $8 per $1000 insur­ ance a t that rate and change it into a policy maturing before death. All soldier insurance is non-assignable and free from the' claims of creditors of the insured or the beneficiary, The object of this insurance clause is to forestall any fnture attempts a t pension legislation.
