In the insurance act passed In its closing sessions, congress met every major reason why many veterans dropped their national service life insurance after leaving the service, the VA said. Major reasons for dropping CI insurance have been lack of lump sum payment to beneficiaries, restriction of beneficiaries to members of immediate family and omission of endowment plans among permanent plans offered.

All these, important to civilian needs of veterans, have now been changed. Congress also added a disability income provision to pay $50 a month insurance income in case of total disability occurring any time before age 60. Millions of veterans will now reinstate their insurance, the VA expects. To reinstate the term insurance easily without medical exam, as most veterans will want to do, it is necessary to pay 2 premiums. After Feb.

1, 1947, a medical exam will again be required if the insurance has lapsed for more than 6 months.

Vote for Howard M. Remley Republican Candidate for Justice of the Peace POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT en to increasing wage and salary rates if it should turn out that the increase in cost of living continues. It should be pointed out, however, that the recent weakening in many wholesale commodity prices indicates the possibility that the country may be passing through a peak in the cost of living curve. Viewing both of these trends, the 'company feels that it cannot intelligently determine the necessity for general wage and salary increases until it can be more definitely established what the level of the cost of living index will be and what the general wage pattern in industry is to be. The company recognizes the importance of the objective of all industry to attempt to curb further inflationary tendencies.

The bonus to assist employes was adopted as a temporary measure in view of these considerations, the company said. Goodell -Mr. and Mrs. Andy Richert and Barbara of Rickey, Mont, are visiting relatives, the Greimans, and are guests in the home of her cousin, Mrs. Fred Et-chen.

rOLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT mMS MONDAY EVENING fefe. NOVEMBER 4th JIM MSI; 0 iff I -e SNEAK UP ON Mother Nature doesn't have much trouble putting ber children, so to sneak, to She just tarns off the heat, cools off the sun, and opens the north gate to let the winter in, and pretty soon all crowing things have shed their summer attire and gone to sleep to await the, coming of another spring. But after the winter sleep, how little it takes to awaken the sleepers. Just a warm breath of spring wandering over the few remaining snow drifts, a bright, warm sun, and a couple of robins, and nature's children rub the sleep from their eyes and begin once more to grow and blossom and fruit. Too bad we cannot all do like nature does nd sleep throughout the winter.

At last we have Betty Buix fully equipped with new tires. And now we can really warm up her insides once more. Which plodding along about AO or 45 miles an hour expecting at any minute to hear a loud reverberating bang from a rear tire is not conducive to a satisfying peace of mind. Tis not much fun, To drive about. When tires may, an- time blow out.

And now comes yet another tall corn tale. This fellow has corn so big that he was compelled to engage lumberjacks to get it harvested. The corn was so immense that it had to be chopped or sawed down, the ears trimmed off with an ax, and handled in tiers like cordwood. The poor man says he hasn't yet figured out how he will get it shelled for the market Heaven help the poor distressed farmers in their tall corn predicament. SIGN IN A DOWN TOWN WINDOW: "WINTER IS SOONER THAN YOU THINK." To which we would say that If anyone thinks winter is sooner than we think It is they sure are some thinker.

This has been about the mildest election campaign we ever saw. There has been no visible loud talking or violent gesticulating. One can ask almost anyone who is running for what and outside of the candidates for governor, and possibly Tim Phalen and Verne Mettler, the names of but mighty few candidates can be given. The old whoop it up and vote for me spirit is sadly missing. Or at least it is as this is written.

E'EN THOUGH ELEC-. TION TIME BE TAME, WE HAVE TO HAVE, ONE JUST THE SAME. "Divorces at new high," reads a startling news heading. It just seems like marriage doesn't agree with some people no more. Or they are more restless and always wanting something different.

Or maybe thej just get tired of looking at the same old face every morning at breakfast, if any, and decide to call the whole thing off. And wouldn't it be the height of something or other did more people get divorced than married. About every so often someone who doesn't like Ioway State college suggests in a big way that Ames should play Ioway at feet-ball. As if Ioway State doesn't get walloped bad enough as it is. Which Iowa didn't do as well against Notre Dame as everyone expected and no one really expected they would.

Not but what Ioway went down fighting and, given a few breaks, would have done much better. On the other hand, Ohio beating Minnesota sort of took the sting off of Ioway's defeat And if Ioway can just beat Minnesota, the feet-ball season will be a success as far as we are concerned. WHEN IOWA MIN-, NESOTA BEATS, WE MIND NOT OTH-, ER BAD DEFEATS, All right, al right. So Roosevelt junior high did beat Monroe at feetbalL So what They couldn't do it again, we And just wait until basketball and baseball comes along. We bet Monroe could skin the pants off of Roosevelt in either of these games.

And as for the music bands, we bet Monroe's bass drummer can make more noise on his drum than can i of the Roosevelt band all playing at once.
