More than $12,000,000,000 of Insurance upon the lives of members of the military and naval forces of. the United States has been written by the Bureau of War-Risk Insurance of the I'nited States Treasury. A year ago the total amount of life (Insurance in force In the United States was about $22,000,000,000 In a few months the United States Gov-.

ernment has written more than 60 per cent of that amount. It furnishes this insurance to the beneficiaries at the Bame rate that private companies would furnish It in times of peace. This insurance Is bought and paid for at regular rates by the beneficiaries, except that the Nation assumes the. additional risk I that being In the military, and naval service 01 the country entails upon the beneficiaries. When Americans give up their private occupations and in obedience to the call of their country and the law of the land, often at great financial pacriflce, face the dangers of war and offer their lives In the service of their country, it Is but right and just that upon the nation and not upon fhem should be put the added cost of In surance their dangerous occupation incurs.
