Examination on
1 U. S. Insurance
After Friday
; Lapsed Policies of Service
Men Must Be Renewed at
I . Once to Avoid Taking
New Physical Test
Lincoln Neb. Dec 29. Soldiers
of the recent war have but today and
tomorrow to renew their lapsed gov
ernment war risk insurance without
iirst submitting to physical examma-
tions. There are 55,000 men m Ne
braska eligible to carry government
insurance. Of this number it is es
timated that but 14,000 have con-
' tinued their government insurance,
i George Davis, state representative of
fithe war risk insurance bureau, says
: his records show that slightly more
' than 70 per cent of the service men
in Nebraska have failed to make
payments on their insurance since
i being discharged.
' The period during which ex-serv-V
ice men may renew their insurance
'.' without passing a physical examina-'-
tion ends at midnight December 31.
The examination is said to be identi
cal to that of old-line companies. The
examinations must be made by a
licensed physician, and the cost must
be borne by the applicant.
Mr. Davis estimates that the 14,000
Nebraskans carrying government in
surance have policies amounting to
n $98,000,000. - He says each ex-service
man continuing the government in
surance in one form or another holas
policies averaging $7,000.
Government term insurance can
be continued for a period of five
V. years after the termination of the
v war, but policy holders may convert
it into old line policies at anytime.
" Mr. Davis says a majority, of the
; policy holders in the state already
have converted their insurance.
Nebraska policy holders of gov
ernment converted insurance, Mr.
Davis says, are carrying more 20-
year paid-up policies than any other
V, form. Twenty-year endowment pol
' icies, he says, is next in popularity.
Ordinary life, endowment at the agi
?: of 62, 30-year paid tip and 30-year
J;, endowment follow in the order
;i named. ... .
j, Mr. Davis explains that it is to the
" policy holders' advantage to convert
; the term insurance as soon" as fman
t: cially able, as the longer it is delayed
the larger the premiums win oc

Lincolnite Talks
On Current Topics
With Sen. Harding
President-Elect Reiterates
Statement That League Is
Dead In Chat With John
G. Maher.
John G. Maher of Lincoln, former
democrat, now a republican, re
turned i to Nebraska yesterday fol
lowing a two-hour conference in
Marion, O., Tuesday with President-elect
Harding.
Maher stated that the interview,
solicited by the president-elect, cov
ered current topics of the day from
the league of nations to the soldier
b'ohus.
"However," Maher said yesterday
in Omaha, "I do not feel at liberty to
divulge much of the interview, ex
cept that in speaking of the Wilson
league of nations Senator Harding
told me emphatically that it was
dead because he took the over
whelming vote of November as a
mandate from the people to puj it
in the scrap heap.
"The senator expressed belief in
a pact with European nations but
not one that would gag and tie
American independence in action
and thought in any world
emergency.
"In discussing the soldier bonus,
he stated that the soldiers need have
no fear but that the people would
take care of their soldiers in the fu
ture just as they hadin the past."
Maher described his interview at
Mavion as a "feeler" on the part of
the president-elect that he is getting
from people of all classes and cults
in an attempt to ascertain the poli
cies that will suit the people in
general.
"Those who feel that he will be
under the influences of a sinister
group will be badly fooled," Maher
declared -today.
Becomes Republican.
Maher, a lifelong democrat until
that party indorsed and made the
league of nations an issue, left his
party in September when he wrote
a letter to the G. O. P. state chair
man and the G. O. P. national chair
man announcing the donning of the
G. O. P., uniform and expressing 1m
dissenting views on the democratic
issue, the league of nations.
Maher not only battled with the
democrats verbally from then on, he
organized with the assistance of
other "reformed democrats organiza
tions known as the American Inde
pendence clubs which obtained anti
league of nations speakers such as
Senator Reed of Missouri and Sena
tor. Gore of Oklahoma. , ,
