VA Supports
New Insurance
Administration support of a low
cost $10,000 Life Insurance Pro
tection Program for personnel in
the Armed Forces was voiced on
Thursday by William J. Driver,
Administrator of Veterans Affairs
In testimony before the Subcom-
auttee on Insurance of the
House Committee on Veterans Af
fairs.
The insura^c^wc^Jd fce^a^il-
able not only to members of the
Armed Forces serving in Viet
Xam or other areas of hostility,
hot to all personnel now on duty,
or who may be called to service.
Stanley Zuk, Manager of the Col
umbia VA Regional Office, point
ed out after receiving pertinent
details of the proposed act.
Administrator Driver told the
Committee that the Veterans Ad
ministration supports the principle
of group life insurance for service
personnel as proposed in a pend
ing bill. The features of this ad
ministration backed bill, as de
tailed by Mr. Driver, include:
(1) Authorization for the Ad
ministrator to purchase from one
or more commercial life insurance
companies a group life type of
insurance which would automati
cally insure each member of the
flmfbrmed services in the amount
of $10,000 unless the member de
clined the insurance, or preferred
an amount less than the $10,000
maximum.
(2) A flat premium payment
would be deducted from the ser,-

viceman’s pay, but the Govern
ment would contribute the amount
necessary to cover the excess
mortality cost traceable to extra
hazards of service. Although no
firm premium rate could be es
tablished until completion of ac
tual negotiations with the insur
ance companies, the VA estimates
the cost might be as low as $2
per month for the full $10,000
coverage.
(3) The group life insurance
protection would cease 120 days
after separation from active duty,
but could, while in forcej be con*
verted to a bermaneftt plahSf in
surance written by the participat
ing commercial company desig
nated by the serviceman. No med
ical examination is required.
Mr. Zuk said that in contrasting
the group life insurance approach
with another bill, which favors a
free special indemity type insur
ance, and which was opposed by
Mr. Driver, the V AChief said the
indemnity Would cover only ser
vice personnel in combat zones,
would limit the choice of benefi
ciaries, and would superimpose a
further gratuity on the existing
survivor benefits program.
Mr. Driver further told the
Committee that the bill preferred
by VA would have none of these
defects and would “make available
in every case a reasonable amount
of insurance protection.”

Freedom Fight
Urged by Editor
The battle for freedom must
continue, but not as a hopeless
war for a lost cause, Wayne Free
man, editor of the Greenville
News, told Newberry College stu
dents at the opening convocation
of the 1965-66 year.
“In the fight for freedom
whether it be on far-flung battle
fields like Viet Nam or in the po
litical arenas in Columbia an<
Washington ‘there is never a last
battle,” he said. “But, so long as
man can stand up and struggle to

Wherever you fish for sport—on the
ocean, by the booming surf, or on some
quiet country pond, it*s great at the end
of the day to head for a rewarding glass of beer.
While you’re talking over the ones that got away,
or pan-firying the ones that didn’t, you enjoy the
hearty taste and cool refreshment only a glass of
beer can give you so well. Yes, whatever your
sport—bowling or strolling, golfing or gardening
—a frosty glass of beer makes a naturally
great accompaniment.

remain upright, so long as he can |
fight for liberty, then he is, in
deed, free! That is the price of
freedom—and its greatest glory.”
The speaker was introduced by
Dr. A. G. D. Wiles, president of
the college, who also welcomed
the students and faculty. Rev.
Harry Weber, chaplain, gave the
invocation.
Stressing that the cause of
freedom is far from being lost,
Freeman said, “Freedom has been
bluffed, frightened, bullied and
pushed around long enough. It is
time for those fortunate men and
Women who owfr‘their $wn *souhs
to gather their mighty forces and
begin to roll back, to purge the
unclean from politics and society
and restore the true dignity of
man.”
He predicted that most of his
audience would live to see the
restoration of the foremost poli
tical issue of the ages: whether
the people of a democracy can
sufficiently discipline themselves
to remain free.'
“We should be thankful to have
been born in this land, in this era,
for ours is the most challenging
and adventurous time in all of
recorded history,” Freeman said.
“We have the finest opportunity
humanity ever had to achieve
true greatness. We and our poster
ity have perhaps the final choice
between achievement of cosmic
proportions and total oblivion. In
our time, too, the fate of democ
racy may well be determined.”
Noting that political leaders
are avoiding this question, he ask
ed the students: “Can the people
of a democracy sufficiently discip
line themselves to remain free and
self-governing, or must they in
evitably surrender to the creeping
dictatorship?”
The Greenville editor declared
that too often and too easily men
are persuaded to give up some of
their precious freedom in ex
change for dubious benefits. “The
t;gnd is already established and
it is being furthered b^' the vefry
government which we have been
taught was established to main
tain and protect freedom.”
he said. “We are being conditioned
to value security and freedom
from responsibility above . true
liberty.
“We are in danger of losing
our freedom by default, of be
coming faceless creatures sub
merged in the common herd, reg
imented and manipulated by Big
Brother. And I fear this more
than I fear nuclear war or overt
Communist aggression against
this continent”
Pointing to the removal of all
literacy tests for voting, Freeman
said that this does not produce
good government. “It is the path
way to anarchy and a blank check
for demogogues,” he said.
“No one can name a price for
TO THE GOOD PEOPLE OF
NEWBERRY:
I want to thank each of you for your
vote and support in the First Democratic
Primary Tuesday.
I am asking you to turn out again on
September 28 and cast your ballot for a
man who won’t dodge any issue that is
before Council.
I promise to do as I have done in the
past when I served on Council: I will
vote my own convictions without press
ure or fear.
Thanks again,
CECIL E. KINARD
Candidate for Alderman Ward 5
» THANKS
Many thanks for your wonderful support in Tuesday’s
election. However, it was not quite good enough 1
The turnout in this election was disappointing and un
less you make a special effort to vote in the run
off, it will be even less. Remember each vote counts
and yours will be the one most needed. I solicit your
support and urge each of you to go to the polls and
vote for Jack H. Senn for your Alderman of Ward 4,
on September 28. I will do my part, will you?
gratefully,
JACK H. SENN
TO THE VOTERS...
At the request of numerous friends, I offered as
candidate for the office of Alderman Ward 1 in Tues
day’s Democratic primary, realizing at the time that
pressures of business would not allow me to person
ally contact the voters of the city. I am, therefore,
very grateful to the hundreds of voters for their sup
port in the Democratic primary Tuesday, because I
know their vote was cast on the basis of trust rather
than on the basis of a handshake.
, ' '.{ .H.
I wish for my opponent the best of luck in his
continued service on Council.
SINCERELY,
FRANK ARMFIELD, Jr.
freedom,” he said. “When a peo
ple have it and lose it, they us-
xally sell it cheaply. To those who
lave lost it, it is beyond price.
“I can only say that freedom
is worth whatever we have to pay
for it. It cannot be bequeathed
from one generation to another,
but must be earned by each suc
ceeding generation.
“Freedom is worth more than
life; it is worth the lives of the
next to the last man and woman
alive, for I cannot believe that life
without freedom has any mean
ing.”

r*Tn the simplest terms the Un

ordinate the •work of the health,
welfare and recreational services
in a community and to secure
funds for the support of these
agencies.
The United Fund is a local or
ganization of citizens who have
banded themselves together for
(the advancement of these causes.

called upon to solicit funds in
many campaigns and, at the same I
time, providing maximum support
for the participating causes. While
some national agencies have felt
it was to their advantage to
conduct individual campaigns, the
success and the efficiency of the
“United Way” is bringing an in
creasing willingness to join local
efforts.
• Various names may be given to
such an organization, as Torch

the basic fact remains that it is a
organization of local citizens
