In terms of general information, it may be stated that the Plan provides a certain limited FREE COMPENSATION for damage to owner-occu- pied homes and to 'chattels, but the main feature of the Plan is that owners of most types of property can protect their property by PUR- CHASE of GOVERNMENT WAR RISK INSURANCE at very moderate rat9s. Thistype of War Risk Insurance is not being sold today by private insurance companies, because of the risk involved. Consequently, the Government has established a national scheme to make it possible for each citizen in Canada to purchase the sense of security that comes from knowing that if his property does suffer war damage (and the war has come much closer to Canada in the last twelve months) he can call on the resources of Canada to help him make good his property loss.. HOW TO OBTAIN GOVERNMENT WAR RISK INSURANCE The Fire Insurance Agents and Companies of Canada have volunteered to the Government the services of their extensive facilities and personnel, on a non-profit basis, thus avoiding the setting up of the large organiza- tion that otherwise would be needed to handle details of this nation-wide Government *War Risk Insurance scheme. YOUR PURE INSURANCE AGENT OR COMPANY WILL GLADLY SUPPLY COMPLETE DETAILS OF THIS GOVERNMENT INSURANCE PLAN. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS PM:MIMED so that the public may have notice of the Government' War Risk Innirance Scheme, The infOrination given above is not Intetwled to he 4 complete resumes of the Scheme.
