smaller communities for their
operation—according to the cur
rent issue of the State Agricul
tural and Industrial Develop
ment Board’s Industrial News
letter.
Os some 44 industries listed
as established, or announced for
establishment, frozen food lock
ers or food plants and lumber
products factories lead the field.

steadily growing furniture man
ufacturing industry with a new
plant. Leslie and Lyons have
new lumber companies; Lyons a
new veneer plant, and Winder
a new lumber and planing mill.
Locker plants are appearing in
many towns.
The chenille products field
continues to grow in Georgia,
with Americus establishing a
plant. Textile products manu
facture is still another of the
industries using Georgia’s raw
materials and continuing to ex
pand. Camilla and Lyons have
been selected for new shirt fac
tories. Miscellaneous items to be
manufactured in Georgia in
clude garden tools and house
hold appliances in Columbus
and brick in Rome.
Several communities are nego-
tiating with national concerns
looking toward establishment of
plants there. Among them are
Monroe, Blairsville and Carroll
ton. Meanwhile, the A. I. D.
1 Board’s industry panel is in
touch with a New England screw
machine manufacturer, a large
I glass company and a nationally
| known maker of fine woolens,
i all of whom are seeking Georgia
sites.
Coincident with this announce
ment, Industry Panel Director
W. C. Cram Jr., in his report,
disclosed that buildings of brick,
wood or concrete are available
in Cedartown, Americus, Doug
las, Graysville, Valdosta. Floor
space ranges from 9,000 square
feet to 28,636 square feet. Also

VETERANS’
QUESTION BOX
A public service feature of
fered by The News in coopera
-1 tion with the Rome Contact
Oifice of the Veterans Ad-
1 ministration.
Many veterans have long been
! suspicious of National Service
I Lite Insurance because congres
sional law fixed the method of
payment of death benefits and
even limited the type benefici
aries who could be named. Un
fortunately, most veterans don’t
know that those restrictive
clauses are now long a matter
of the past.
National Service Life Insur
ance is now just like any other
commercial policy, except that!
its costs are cheaper and its!
I terms more liberal. Because of
I the new liberal provisions of
NSLI, many veterans will want
to reinstate their old policies;
sooner or later, most of them
will want to convert their basic
term insurance to a more per
manent policy. Here are a few
of the most commonly asked
questions about converting
NSLI:
Q. Is it true that when I com
vert, my policy costs me more
than a regular commercial pol
j icy?
A. Just the opposite is true. All
NSLI permanent policies have
lower premiums and higher cash
values than any commercial pol
! icy which can be bought.
Q. If the premiums are cheap
er, aren’t NSLI policies worth
less?
A. No. Lower premiums are
possible for NSLI because the
Government pays the adminis
trative costs and there are no
agents’ commissions.
Q. Is it now possible to name
my fiancee as my beneficiary?
A. The holder of an NSLI pol
icy can now name any benefi
ciary he wishes, including his
own estate.
Q. Isn’t it true, though, that
benefits from NSLI policies are
paid only on a monthly basis? ,
A. This is not true. The pro
ceeds from an NSLI policy may
be paid in a lump sum, on a
monthly basis, or a combination
of both.
Q. Commercial insurance firms
pay dividends on their policies.
Why doesn’t NSLI?
A. NSLI can and will pay divi
dends in the future.
Veterans wishing further in
formation about veterans bene
fits may get a personal answer
to their questions from William
H. McNair, of the Rome Contact
Office, who is in Summerville
each Monday at the court house
between the hours of 8:30 a. m.
and 4:30 p. m. Veterans wishing
questions answered in this col
umn are urged to write The News
so that an answer may be ob
tained from the VA.
