In addition, DeRamus pointed out, another unknown number of veterans whose disabilities are not service-connected may also be able to purchase up to $10,000 in coverage. They may do this under terms of the new law on or after May 1, 1965, and before May 3, 1966. The VA is planning before May 1, 1965, to mail full details and application forms to all vet erans receiving monthly c -mpen- sation payments. Those veterans whose disabili ties are service-connected but who are not drawing compensa tion will not be included in this mailing. For these, and for other veterans who believe they may be eligible, full explanatory ma terial and application forms will be on hand at all VA Regional Offices by April, 1965. The Re gional Office serving this area is at 310 W. Fourth St., Winston- Salem. DeRamus said no applications can be accepted before May 1, 1965. Because of this, the VA re quests that veterans do not write, phone or call for applications un til after April 1, 1965. Information on the nev/ pro gram wiU also be available from the office of N. A. MacLeod, Moore County veterans service officer, at Carthage. Converting Also Permitted In addition to the re-opening of NSLI, DeRamus said, the new law allows veterans who already hold existing World War II or Korean Conflict-type term poli cies to convert to a modified life plan. The one-year time limit does not apply to this provision. The VA plans to notify all term holders of this new modified plan at the time of their renewal. This plan is an inducement to term policyholders to convert to a lifetime level premium plan before the premiums on renew able term insurance become pro hibitive with increasing age. The advantage is that it per mits conversion to permanent type insurance at lower premium rates than possible before, but the face value of the policy will be automatically reduced by 50 per cent when the insured reaches the age of 65. The policyholder has the op tion at that time to restore the full amount of coverage by pur chasing ordinary life insurance without medical examination.

Prior to the introduction of the 1965 Fords, the country’s lead ing automotive writers drove the new models at Dearborn. Most of these experts remarked about the extraordinary quiet ness and smoothness of the Ford ride. An automotive writer, in Mechanix Illustrated, said, “If there is a quieter car made in this country, I haven’t driven it.” Quiet Means Quality . . . Since quiet is a traditional measure of car quality, Ford engineers designed the ’65 Ford for maxi mum quietness. To illustrate New Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III during series of tests. this quality achievement. Ford chose to make a documented test against the world’s finest luxury car—Rolls-Royce. Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Inc., world’s leading acoustic consultants to government and industry, conducted the tests under supervision of the au thoritative United States Auto Club. All cars were tuned to factory specifications. The Result... The Fords proved PRODUCTS OF motor COMPANY to be slightly quieter at all speeds. The official test report reads, in part: “At all moving speeds, on both courses, the Fords were quieter than the Rolls-Royces.” The Difference . . . The sound level difference, to be sure, is small—but it is there. At 60 miles an hour. Ford was actu ally 2.8 decibels* quieter than Rolls-Royce. At 40, Ford was 5.5 decibels* quieter. At 20, Ford was 4.9 decibels* quieter. However small these advan tages over Rolls-Royce may be, they are significant evidence of quality—important to anyone buying a car in Ford’s class.
