PEOMPTTLMITCOTJETEOUS service Food Draft May Ito Purchased and ftk'tit to Sufferer In Central nnd I Eastern 10uroio Food drafts on warehouses in Eu rope to relieve the distress caunrd by the shortage of supplies and Il licit distribution Is the latest means devised by the American relief ad i n.iMintion to cope with this seri ous situation. Herbert Hoover, chair man of the relief administration. In nrklnp the support of the bankers of the country, guve It as his opin ion, that without systematized as sistance In obtaining food on some basis of support from America, larpe sections of central and eastern Eu rope would be subject to famine and anarchy during the winter. There are millions of people In the United M't. whose relatives and frtewls abroad are suffering for lack of food. Many are desirous of giving direct lp, but In some Instances, the pack ing and extra freight Involved add 100 per cent to the cost and there can be no certainty of delivery of the hlpment. Under the plan of the merlcan relief administration, food drafts of different values may be purchased from banks In the United States and forwarded to sufferers in. tho restricted districts. The home service committee of tho American Red Cross, who have re ceived this information, have con ferred with local bankers and will be glad to give information and every assistance possible to those Interested in this method of relief. Every food draft is on order upon the warehouses of the relief adminis tration and will be exchanged for the quantity of food designated thereon when presented by the per Bon to whom it is Bent or by his rep- esentative. Warehouses are located In Ham burg, Warsaw, Vienna, Prague and Budapest. Flour, beans, bacon, corned eef, lard or vegetable oils and condensed milk are the staples listed on the food drafts and the quantities indicated determine the value of the draft. Orders must be presented within Inety days of the date of the draft and when filled the Belling bank will be notified and In turn inform its customer. The purchaser or the food draft will be charged the fac tory cost of the food plus a reason- ble margin to cover transportation and insurance expenses. The project, although not commer cial, will be operated on a business basis and has the endorsement of the governments Interested, as well as the Hpproviil of tho president of the American bankers' association.

CAN ItKIXSTATH INSURANCE WITHIN EIGHTEEN MONTHS To relieve any confusion that may exist in the minds of former service men on account of the special provi sion of lapsed war term insurance which authorized reinstatement up to December 31, 1919, regardless of date of discharge, announcement is made by the bureau of war risk In surance that the provisions for re instatement of lapsed or canceled In surance, within eighteen months from date of discharge, upon pay ment of only two months' premiums on the amount of Insurance to be re Instated, provided the Insured Is In as good health as at the date of dis charge or expiration of the grace period whichever is the. later date,' and so states in his application, still hold good. The provision that discharged service men are permitted to rein state at any time within three cat endar months following the month of discharge by merely paying the two months' premiums, without making a formal application or statement as to health Is also still In force. The provisions ' for reinstatement do not protect a man until he actual ly reinstates.
