Washington, July 25. Discharged service men who .let their government insurance lapse were given the privi lege of reinstating their policies within eighteen months without payment of back premiums, under an order signed todsy by Secretary Glass. The new reinstatement regulation, one ef a number under consideration de signed to make it possible for every dis charged eoldier, tailor and marine to eoatinue government insurance after re-, turn to civil life, is regarded aa the most liberal ever offered by any in surance organisation. The only re quirement it that the maa requeating reinstatement must be in aa good health as at the time of discharge and must pay the premium for the one month of grace ia which bis insurance . waa con tinued after he stopped psyment and the premium for the month in which he requests reinstatement. Premiums for the, intervening months will not be re quired. Aa An Investment. "Many service men have been deter red from' reinstating policies because they did not wish to pay or could not pay the accumulated premiums," Direc tor Cholmeley-Jones, of the War Hlik Bureau, said. "The new decision per mits a maa to rehabilitate himself financially after returning to civil life and then take up his insurance aa an investment. The reason payment for the -month of grace is required is that the insured waa protected by having his policy continued in force that month, and if he had died, his dependents would hnve received the face of the policy. "Should a taps again occur, after the eighteen months from date of discharge, reuittatemeat may - bo mti provided tuck insurance shall set have lapsed mere than one year. Meat Apply. "I want to make it elear that the new ruling does not automatically reinstate anybody's policy. Every man who al lows hia policy to lapse is without pro lection until he voluntarily applies for reinstatement, which I Strongly urge all men to do at once, while their physical condition is such that reinstatement may be made."
