NEW YORK. (Spl.) The en
tire appropriation for the 1939
annual message of life Insurance
will be spent In newspaper adver
tising, according to Seneca M.
Gamble, chairman of the adver
tising committee. This year's ap

than for 1938, he added.
"There are 64,000,000 ltfe In
surance policyholders In the United
States," said Mr. Oamble, "and
the most effectve way of reaching
them with our message la through
the newspapers of the country."
The advertising copy will run
during the week of October 93
and will tell the nation's policy
holders how much life insurance
paid to beneficiaries and living
policyholders and what these pay
ments mesnt In the national
economy.
"Ltfe Insurance payments In 1938
were nearly 12,600,000,000," said
Mr. Gamble. "This Is equal to
about one-twelfth the country's
retail sales; Is two and one-half
times the amount spent for na
tional dpfeiw."
