The 1916 English savings drive shows deposits rising by over 60 million dollars as war bonds flood the market. Patriotism, economy in food and dress, and shared sacrifice spurred a national effort. The Liberty Loan mirrors this spirit, with 4 million subscribers and over a billion dollars in over-subscription.

Government to provide life and indemnity insurance for soldiers

Secretary McAdoo proposes a government funded at cost life and indemnity plan for U S soldiers and sailors. President Wilson approves the outline and Congress has introduced a bill. The plan would cap costs at eight dollars per thousand the insurer would receive installments and protections for dependents. Insurance would be non assignable and protected from creditors with disability benefits based on pay and family size. Medical and rehab services included. Government would collect and administer funds and bear war risks. After the war the policy could convert to other forms. The plan argues it is fair since uniformed service is mandatory and the state must protect dependents. The question remains whether the cost is sustainable versus current pension plans. The promotion ends by noting Liberty Bond proceeds should fund this protection for servicemen and families.
