Immediately following the sneak attack on Pead Harbor the U. S. GovernrKent, as a temporary measure, announced that all property in the U. S. was automatically covered with free insurance against damage caused by enemy action. This free protection expires at mid night on June 30th, 1942, and is replaced by regular war damage insurance policies, issued by the War Damage Corporation, which must be purchased from your local insurance agent. This new, documentary protection results from the permanent war damage indem nity program established through the Congressional legislation introduced by Senator Wagner of New York. It increased the capitalization of the War Damage Corporation, a subsidiary of theR. F. C., to $1,000,000,000, and authorized the Corporation to issue regular insurance poli cies for a premium charge. These policies are offered at a moderate premium through the cooperation of the fire insurance companies and the insurance agents who have volunteered their services in writing and distributing the insurance on a non-profit basis. They are paid a nominal commission only to cover their out-of-pocket expenses. You must have this insurance if you want your dwelling, household goods, automo bile, store, factory, etc., protected against bombing, invasion etc., or against the damage our own armies might cause you in the course of repelling enemy action. Your present fire insur ance policies do not cover this hazard. Rates on dwellings only 10 cents per $100.00. For further information, see any of the following agents: P. T. BARNUM, INC. A. S.
