Veterans News Letter Veterans whose National Service

Life Insurance policy has lapsed can still reinstate it without taking a physical examination.

Congress recently passed a time ex­tension bill and the President signed it into law about a week and a half ago.

New deadline for the reinstating-without-examination is August 1, 1947. That's the date set by Veterans Ad­ministrator Omar Bradley.

Thereafter, term policies which lapse will have to be reinstated with­in three months, or the veteran must pass a physical examination.

Latest VA figures indicate that I about 10 million veterans have allowed; their NSLI to lapse. That moans that four out of five veterans aren't cov-j ered.

The average for Allegany County! will be somewhat higher than the. national average, according to an es-i timate made by the Allegany County Veterans' Service Agency. Probably | 50 per cent of the County's veterans are keeping their NSLI. But that still leaves five out of 10 veterans without it.

To those veterans who have allowed their NSLI to lapse: Better think it over, drop in at the Agency, or see your Legion or VFM service officer. Above all—reinstate your NSLI—as much as you can afford—and KEEP IT.

Lost your Terminal Leave bond? We've heard of one or two veterans who have—and here's what to do to replace it.

You can obtain an official applica­tion form for its replacement by writ­ing to the Chief, Division of Loans and Currency, U. S. Treasury Dept., Wash­ington 25, D. C. When requesting this form the veteran should give a full description of the circumstances surrounding the loss and as thorough a description—including serial number

After first stripping the armor from a new army half track, the like of which scaled the sand dunes of Af­rica, sloshed through swamps in the South Pacific, and dragged trailer trains of supplies up the Alcan high­way, he, assisted by Jack Bullock, one of Angelica's most able mechanics, de­signed and built a lime spreader which will be used in Allegany Coun­ty and will subsequently be duplicated by others in Wyoming and Livingston Counties.

As the picture shows, this machine with its rubber crawler type rear drive distributes the load over a great­er area, and will not carve ruts in fields which is often the case with ordinary pneumatic tires on similar equipment. To assist in conditions of poor footing, the front wheels can be power driven at the will of the driver. An added feature of this ma­chine is a power-driven reel equipped with a cable, mounted on the front

do an unsurpassed job of "painting the lime" on fields or pastures to any specified tonnage per acre.

When questioned about how he con­ceived the idea Bill said, "I was very fortunate to be able to buy an unused army half track which had been pre­pared for shipment overseas just as the war ended. It is basicly a heavy duty International truck, for which supplies are easi ly acquired to keep it in continuous operation." After having seen a demonstration of this machine under extremely poor con­ditions for spreading lime, Paul C. Regan, Allegany County Conservation Agent, stated. "It's a greaat machine and ought to be a agreat help to the county."

Mr. Short plans to use this machine along with the rest of h is equipment to spread l ime through the county He plans to work in close coordination with the soil conservation department and the individual farmer.

In 1945, when Mrs. Luella Straight was superintendent of the primary department of the Sabbath School of the First Alfred Church, an overseas box with special specifications as to size, weight, contents, etc., was sent through the Overseas Relief for Christ­mas packages from the primary de­partment. Mrs. Straight, who wrote her name and address on a Christmas card in the box, has recently received the following interesting and touch­ing letter from the minister in the Philippines, who received the package:

San Benito, Numancia, Surigao, P. I. October 29, 1946

First Alfred Seventh Day Baptist S. S. Primary Department (Luella Straight) Supt. Alfred. N. Y. V. S. A. Dear Children of God:

I am very very glad to receive a package from your Dept. Being a pastor in charge of the whole Island for distribution of the Christmas pack­ages, I immediately passed them over to the most indigent person especially to the children like you. How glad they were!

We were also beniflted with your .gifts. We received towels, powdered milk, skaping ropes, etc.

Now we are at peace, but still the bitterness of that war remains in us. My children are still half naked be­cause during the war, the Japs looted all our households. Everything in the house was taken, all by them.

When to recover them, I cannot tell yet. Famine is great. Troubles is around. Civil war is raging. We are not entirely at peace.

Of course, we children of God, who are in the shadows of the Almighty, shall find a perfect rest. We live by faith in Jesus.

My children, and the children in the church as a whole enjoin ourselves in saying. "Thank you very, very much".

Yours for the Lord, Samued Toglusop
