VA Tells How Vets
Will Receive
N.S.L.I. Dividends
The 1952 dividend on National
Service Life Insurance will not
be available to eligible veterans
3n cash or for use as premium
payments before the anniversary
date of their policies in 1952.
According to the Veterans Ad
ministration, many veterans are
under the impression the divi
dend is already due them and is *
being applied to their premium
payments immediately because
they did not request cash pay
ment.
The VA announced recently a
regular dividend will be paid on
all G.I. insurance policies in
force for three months or longer
between the 1951 and 1952 anni
versary dates of the policies.
Payments on policies with Janu
ary anniversary dates are sched
uled for this month.
The VA said some 170,000 Pa
cific Northwest veterans will re
ceive G.I. insurance dividends
this year.
Policy holders who wish to re
ceive their 1952 dividend in cash
must notify the VA, either by
letter or on the special card
mailed them by the VA. If cash
payment is not requested, the

dividend will be used by the VA
to pay the premiums becoming
due alter the policy anniversary
date on which the dividend is
payable, if the policy holder fails
lo pay such premiums.
In lieu of receiving the divi
dend in cash, any policy holder
may request the VA in writing
to apply his 1952 dividend as an
advance payment on premiums
falling due after the 1952 anni
versary date.
On permanent policies, the
veteran may request the VA in
writing to place the dividend on
deposit at interest, with the
aggregate to be included in the
calculation of cash value at time
of lapse or maturity.
Written requests, including
full name and address and in
surance numbers, should be sent
to the VA district office to which
premium payments are made.
Since the recent consolidation
of the Seattle, Chicago and Fort
Snelling, Minn., district offices
all G.l. insurance accounts of
Pacific Northwest veterans are
being handled by the Fort Snell
ing district office.
