Friday Feb. 7. 1947; $1.50 Per Year In Advance LOCAL CITIZENS URGED TO HELP CONTACT VETS . Spotlighting Utah Prominent citizens and leading organ- izations of this community will be asked to join with the Veterans Administration in an all out local campaign to urge veterans to reinstate their lapsed National Servce Life Insurance policies, E. A. Littlefield, Manager of the Utah State VA office, has announced. The local campaign will be part of a nation-wid- e drive planned by the VA and officially launchea this week in Washington by General Omar N. Bradley, administrator for veterans affairs. Of the 13,000,000 veterans who at one time held NS'LI policies, nearly 10,000,-00- 0 have allowed their policies to lapse. Approximately 44,849 of these uninsured veterans are in Utah. Since the NSLI policy has advantages in low cost, safety and coverage that cannot be duplicated by private companies, the VA has planned this sweeping campaign right in the veterans home communities to point out, not only the value of the NLI policies!, but also the ease with which reinstatement may be made. Merely two months premium payments are required, regardless of the length of lapse. In March a task force of insurance experts will visit this area to supply an on the spot climax to the reinstatement drive. Idaho Wants State Publicity Department. While the Utah State Legislature is pondering the fate of the Utah Department of Publicity and Industrial Development, the Idaho State Editorial Association has made a recommendation to the Idaho Legislature that they appropriate $100,000 for setting up a publicity department to publicize the state and encourage tourist trade. In these modern times hardly any state in the Union is without its publicity department whose main objective is to attract tourists. With the national tourist expenditure this season expected to climb to more than ten billion dollars, every state in the Union is bidding for a share from this pot of gold. New York State today leads all states in tourist income, with California a close second. Utah with more unique attractions than either New York or California, is 42nd down the list.
