Show GOVERNMENT INSURANCE ENDORSED. BY OFFICIAL OF NATIONAL LIFE CO. "Cnn you imagine what would happen hap-pen if all the employees in the thrco hundred life insurance companies of America word drawn into one department depart-ment and were required to administer tho tremendous work that the Bureau of War Risk Insurance has had to do in Washington? In view of tho fact thot it wrote over forty billion dollars worth of insurance within a few months, necessarily there were mistakes mis-takes tho contrary would havo been impossible. No executive of any life insurance company hesitates to recommend rec-ommend in tho most emphatic torniB thnt tho Government Insurance is a good thing. You cannot expect tho regular old line life insurance companies com-panies to furnish insurance at the snmo rate as the Government docs. The Government premium docs not carry administration expense. That is borno by the tax payer. So in tho last analysis there is every reason, and every life insurance agent will tell you there is every reason, why you should hold on to your Government Govern-ment Insurance. It is the cheapest, has the most substantial backing, tho Treasury of tho United States itself, and will bo made tho most attractive." The above statement was made by President Fred A. Wowlnnd of tho Nntionnl Lifo Insurance Company of Montpelier, Vermont, in tho course of an addrccss to the March meeting of Commanders of the American Legion Post of tho state of Vermont, and represents the viewpoint of an official of n lifo insurance company. Ex-service Ex-service men who permit their government govern-ment lifo insurance to lapse are throwing throw-ing away one of their most valuable investments, and one which they will bo unable Inter to regain or obtain anew. |
