Judge rules war clause in Hooker policy invalid

United States district court in Chicago holds that the war clause voids double indemnity for Captain George K. Hooker who died during a training incident in New Zealand in 1943. Judge William J. Campbell declares his death routine training, not combat, entitling John P. Hooker to the extra $10,000. Also notes a rise in American life insurance to an estimated 163 billion dollars by mid year with strong gains in ordinary and group policies.
