Insurance Money
In State To Be
Paid Veterans
Portland - A total of $3,
616,000 in 1963 GI insurance
dividends will be paid to Ore
gon veterans in record time,
according to R. J. Novotny,
manager of the Portland Vet
erans Administration regional
office.
Plans for payment of both
regular and special 1963 divi
dends were announced by the
White House recently.
Under a greatly specded-up
timetable, the entire payment
of both regular and special
dividend payments is expect
ed to be completed during
January.
Of the total, $3,401,000 is
for both the regular and spe
cial 1963 dividends that will
go to World War II veterans
in Oregon holding National
Service Life Insurance (NSLI)
policies.
The $215,000 in regular
dividends will go to World
War I veterans who hold U. S.
Government Life Insurance
(USGLI) policies.
Regular dividends, which
are distributed annually, are
usually paid on the anniver
sary date of the original is
suance of the policy. On this
occasion, the payment will be
speeded up to be completed
within January. An acceler
ated method was used once
before by the VA when the
regular dividends during 1961
were paid by Mid-March of
that year.
Returning Part Payment
The regular dividends
which are paid to both World
j War I and World War II
policyholders are primarily a
! return to the policyholders of
part of their premium pay
ments, since the death rate
! among GI policyholders con
j tinues to be lower than the
rate upon which the payments
were established by law.
The special dividend, which
will go to World War II
NSLI policyholders only, will
be paid from the contingency
reserve fund due to the fact
that study and current ex
perience indicate that the
fund is more than ample to
! meet the needs of the insur-
ance program. A previous
1 special dividend was paid to
World War II policyholders
! during 1961.
Novotny reminded veteran
policyholders that the prepar
ing and mailing of the divi
dend is automatic and re
quires no correspondence
from veterans or their fami
lies. In fact, such correspond
ence might delay the dividend
disbursement process, he said.

Area Woman Killed
In Accident; All
Ambulances Busy
Grants Pass All ambu.
lances in the Grants Pass area
were busy last night when
two accidents 25 minutes
apart claimed the life of a
Medford woman and injured
three other persons.
Five minutes after the sec
ond accident occurred, fire
broke out in a Grants Pass
residence and the occupant
was overcome by smoke. But
the city police had to take
the man to Josephine Gen
eral hospital in a police car,
because they couldn't locate
a free ambulance.
Killed in the first accident
was Agnes Lea Hall, 44, of
214 North Peach st., Medford.
Injured seriously were Elea
nor LaDora Parr, 38, of 44
North Grape St., Medford,
and Mary K. Wallis, 20, of
214 North Peach St., Medford.
Hospitalised
The injured persons were
taken to Josephine General
hospital, where this morning
Miss Wallis's condition was
reported as fair and Miss
Parr's condition as fairly
good.
The accident occurred at
5:55 p.m. on Interstate 5 near
the E st. overpass at Grants
Pass. A car driven by Mr
Hall apparently went out of
control, striking guard rails
on both sides of the south
bound lanes. The collision
knocked out the car's lights
and threw Mrs. Hall and MLss
Parr out on the pavement.
Two other cars, operated by
Robert Franklin Conrad, 24,
