C. - FOREWORD -- During the War, when unrestricted Life Insur- ance coverage was unavailable to many Civilian U. S. Government employees who were to serve overseas, this association was founded on a mutual non-profit basis to provide such protection. The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States entered a contract with your Association at very low rates and with no restrictions as to medical examination, travel, or occupational hazards. . Many thousands of Government employees have availed themselves of this liberal and low cost coverage. During the first four and one-half years of its existence War Agencies Employees Protective Asso- ciation has authorized distribution of $1,208,314.35 in benefits to its beneficiaries and members. The continued demand from its old members, plus the desire on the part of new applicants to obtain sim- ilar protection has caused your officers and directors to arrange with the Equitable for the continuance of this protection for the indefinite future. You may continue to enjoy this protection after your return to the United States, and as long as you remain actively employed in Government service, during the lifetime of the Association. Thus a service conceived as a war measure emergency will continue to offer its unusual benefits and low cost coverage in peacetime. Qualified Government employees will, I feel sure, choose to avail themselves of this most liberal offer. Sincerely yours, FREDERICK J. LAWTON Administrative Assistant President of the War Agencies Employees Protective Association Approved For Release 2001/08/17 : CIA-RDP57-00384R001200020004-5 Approved WAR DEPARTMENT WASHINGTON To OUR MEMBERS: I feel so strongly about the need for inexpensive life insurance for government employees assuming overseas assignments that I have accepted the Presi- dency of the War Agencies Employees Protective Association. If you feel the need for greater life insurance ' security for your families, I believe it will be to your personal interest to familiarize your- selves with the relatively large amount of life in- surance obtainable through this Association for a small premium. The War Agencies Employees Protective Asso- ciation was organized early in the war to provide, on a mutual non-profit basis, life insurance for civilian government employees serving outside the continental limits of the United States. It is some- what comparable to the National Service Life In- surance Program provided for members of the armed forces. The Association, the officers of which serve without compensation, has made an arrange- ment with The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, one of the country's oldest and largest mutual companies and the originator of group life insurance protection. Many thousands of members already enjoy this low cost protection. I am sure you will want to give this matter your earn- est consideration. Sincerely yours, ROBERT P. PATTERSON Secretary of War, Ex-President of the War Agencies Employees Protective Association, 1945-6.

On May 21, 1943 a plan of Group Life In- surance was made available to members of the Association under a Master policy issued by The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, one of America's largest mutual com- panies and the originator of Group Protection. The primary purpose was to provide member- ship and insurance to Civilian U. S. Government Employees serving overseas. This plan is a low cost private arrangement between the Association and the Equitable, rather than a Government financed and operated program. The background and advantages of membership in the Association are as follows: peal to Eligible Employees for many reasons: It provides sound liberal protection. The rate is low because of the Association's Group purchasing power. This rate may be reduced by dividends or other benefits paid as determined by the Association, a mutual non-profit organization. No restrictions have been placed on the pay- ment of benefits. The principal sum will be paid in a lump sum or in instalments over a period of years in the event of death from any cause. Protection may be continued so long as you continue your premium payments and are a mem- ber of. the Association in good standing and the member continues actively employed in Govern- ment Service whether abroad or in the United States.

By making your monthly payment of only $12.50 you have immediately created a fund of $10,000., which might go far in meeting certain of the fixed charges for rent, food, clothing, recrea- tional, educational and medical expenses of your family. We frequently receive inquiries from Govern- ment employees stationed abroad who tell us they were not informed about our Association before proceeding overseas and have learned about our of- fer through associate workers. We have made every endeavor to obtain complete distribution through the various personnel departments of every branch of the U. S. Government, but because of the con- stant shifting it is sometimes difficult to obtain one of our descriptive pamphlets. We would consider it a great favor if you could ascertain whether the personnel officer at your post is familiar with our plan, and has a supply of pamphlets available. In every group insurance plan it is both desirable and profitable to all the members to procure the highest percentage of participation which spreads the risk and reduces the cost. The Association, therefore, solicits your cooperation, and would greatly appreciate your active aid in carrying our message and information to your associate workers of the benefits you are enjoying.
