'Calculations On ^National Service , rr Life Insurance ^e Veterans Administration has made public its first calcu-' latlons on the amounts to be paid to nearly 16,000*600 veter ans in the two-billion-elght-hun dred-mlllion-dollar special Na tional Service Life Insurance dividend. The maximum possible amount i Shat any veteran can receive will' kg $528. Other payments, based age groups, will run to lessor sums. The dividend will be paid on both term and converted in surance policies, and will be paid only for the period that the pol icy' was in force prior to the pol icy anniversary in 1948.vNo pay-' ments will be made for periods of lapse, VA emphasized. j The estimated rate of the divi dend, VA says, was arrived at alter long actuarial studies and the rate of payment will be the same for both term and convert ed policies, as the dividend is based o n mortality savings. There have been no excess inter est earnings. In computing the maximum ment of $528 the dividend based on a $10,000 policy in force for 96 months'(the longest! possible period), on a veteran j aged 40 or less at the time the' policy was taken out. This repre sents a payment of 65 cents a month per 61,000 of insurance. As the mortality rate for the age group of 40 and under did not vary greatly, a single dividend rate will apply to this whole group. The rates of payment will be: those under 40 years of age at the rate of 55 cents per month per $1,000 of insurance; those 41 to 45 years of age, scaling down from 52 cents to 40 cents; those 46 to 50, 37 cents down to 25 cents; those 51 to 54, 24 cents down to 21 cents; those 55 and over, 20 cents per thous and. . - Applications must be made to | receive the dividends, which will be paid in 1950. o Milk May Be Secret To Longer Life?Cornell University sclent 11st discovers unsuspected secret of long and sturdy life in milk diet.
