I Drastic changes in veterans' iurance, affecting approxi-350,000 policy holders in |>uthern California, have been ssed by congress, and the bill now on the president’s desk [waiting his signature, according L. C. Chapman, manager of IM Angeles Veterans admmis-ration regional office.
?he new measure will permit |ump settlements, endowment iatures, unrestricted beneficiary lesignations. disability income, ind, in general, make national Service life insurance compm-ible to old line policies.
The amended features, when md if they receive presidential ipproval. will necessarily take some time to be put into effect because of tlie time required to set up tlie administrative machinery.
Complete information on how, when, and where to make desired changes in policies will be given to veterans as soon as tlie bill becomes law.
Veterans who have allowed their policies to drop have until the last of this year to renew them, according to Mr. Chapman
