i~EE UP YOUR INSURANCE
TI`e Detrtat Free Press in a recent
rtarlc says that last year 45,000 Per -
ons died in the United States after
therm saps thear insurance the year be -
#ore. The loss to the dependents c.i
these persons was approximately 87
million dollar..
We do not knew What the s*.atis-:
tics are for Canada reg, tlia:g this
matter but it is reasonable to assum
that the loss .to dependents in Can
ada would be about the same percen-
tage per population.
It is one of the tragedies of de-
pression and a tragedy which though
unavoidable, will be a continuing one
in the lives of many ofthe widows
and children who have had their only
safeguard against poverty swept
away.
