DETROIT TIMES
Your Money
BY JOHN M. OS KI SON
At length detail* of the go%ern
menu* insurance plan aie out They
make good reading to u* who have
any personal interest .n the war’s
outcome.
I find that any American between
the ag -* of 15 and 65 who 1* in any
way assisting in the war work iuhv
buv government insurance up to
JlO.iKbV Men. women and children
•: e> nuv all buy it
I find that the coef (or premium?!
will be figured on a monthly ban?
on the following schedule:
At age 15 the mon:hly coat of a
policy for will be »?3 cents
Between the age? of 21 and 31
the rate increases slowly from a*,'* to
70 ren.s per month per thousand
Beyond 31 the rate rises until at
age 6*, the cost is $3.35 per month
per thousand.
The government proro*c* to do
more than offer p'ain life insurance,
ft i* proposed to go a lons way in
caring for the fanill-a of men actu
ally dependent on the scldier’s earn
ing*
It is proposed to car-* for the mat
ter of re educating wounded soldiers
so that they may take up ?om* other
kind of productive work when they
pome home from ’he war
It ia proposed to continue for th •
family of the, man killed in the war
’he offer of insurance at the very
low- war rate. .
Finally, it is proposed to adopt In
the payment of policies the most
modern theory concerning death
benefit*, and in case* of total disa
bilttv the payments will continue for
at least 20 years if the soldier lives
that long if he d*e* before, the
enilre sum will be paid o\er to !.i»
fauiily
What, practically, wouid this in
stallmen? plan amount to?
The government says that if the
soldier is 25 >eur<- old when he
•akes his policy, the n-on’hly pay
ment for total disability will amount
to $' 75 for each $1,049 ot insurance
Thu> the soldier w ho taaes 1 10.000
of insurance a* the age of 25 will
pay s(> $0 a month, and ts he |s dis
shied »he government will pay him
s'7 Trt \ month for 2'» years
1* is worth while asking for a eopv
of this n»w plan from the war risk
