QUESTION OF TIlE WEEK
Q. I dropped my National Ser-
vice Life Insurance when I was
discharged from the service. Now
may I put it back in force?
A. Until January 1, 1948, you
may reinstate your NSLI by pay-
ing only two monthly premiums,
and signing a statement that your
health is as good as at the time
the policy lapsed. After that date,
if your insurance has lapsed more
than'three months, you must prove
your insurability by passing a
physical examination.

Olympic National
Park Given An
Added $39,000
Rep. Henry M. Jackson an-
nounel today a $38,930 supple-
mental allowance by the iational
park service.to the Olympic Na-
tional Park for improvements dur-
ing the current fiscal year. This
makes a total bf $186,362 avail-
able to the Olympic park for the
year ending June 30, 1948. ]
The original 1948 $148,432 allo- [
cation consisted of $92,000 for
general administration, mainte-I/
nance and protection; $49,432 for I|
road and trail maintenance; and/[
$6,000 for rehabilitation. l
The supplemental $38,930 an-|
nounced today includes $20,000 for
improving the Olympic and Sol
Duc hot; sp:ingz roads prelimi-
nary to oiling, and $18,930 for tli'e
following rehabilitation; camp-
grounds $11,000, water systems
$3,3(}0, buildings $3,630, signs and
markers $1,000.
THESE ARE part Of the im-
provements which the Port Ange-
les Chamber of Commerce recom-
'mended last month be added to
the current year's program. , "
Since congress made its annual
lump sum appropriation to the na-
tional park se,wice for distribu-
tion among the various parks this
year, Congressman Jackson has
been urging the park service to
allocate a larger share of its funds
to the Olympic National Park.
He emphasized the rel.tively
small appropriations received by
the park since its creation in June,
1938, and urged that this be made
up by consideration more in keep-
ing with the new park's size and
needs.
CHAIRMAN Sydney Tozier of
the Port Angeles Chamber of
Commerce national park develop-.
ment committee expressed gratifi-
cation at the supplemental allow-
ance and said his committee rec-
ommended preference to rehabili-
tation of facilities that ran down
badly during the war years.
He said the committee took into
consideration Supt. Preston Macy's
advice that the original trail main-
tenance allowance for this year
probably will be all that can satis-
factorily be used with the men
available for interior park work.
Supplemental 'funds thus will be
used to. rhabilitate public camp-
ing £acili[tes all around the park,
and to prepare two main park
roads for their first oil surfacing.
MONEY IS sought in next year's
road budget to permit oiling late
next summer. This year the Olym-
pic National Park acquired from
war surplus property a road roller
a bulldozer, an oil distributor, a
portable rock crusher and three oil
storage tanks.
Thus the park is now well equip-
ped to commence its first oiling
program on the park's 117 miles
of roads, as soon as it receives
the needed operating funds, Toz-
ier pointed out. All park roads
need considerable improvement be-
fore they will be ready for oiling'.
The Olympic park constructed
some new trail before the war with
PWA money, but has never re-
ceived any money for new road
construction.
HIGH ONthe park's priority
construction list are two north
side road projects: a six mile con-
nection between existing Deer park
and Hurricane ridge roads, and a
13 mile first class road from
Heart o' the Hills around the east
side of Mount Angeles to the Big
meadow on Hurricane ridge.
The public roads administration
completed its survey for the latter
road last month, and is now
working up constrttction data at
Portland regional office. ThePRA
will build the road when funds are
available from congressional ap-
propriations to the national park
sezTice. Construction will take sev-
eral years.
The original American Navy
consisted of four warships and
four escort vessels. Their names
were: Alfred, Columbus, Andrew
Doris, Cabot, Providence, Hornet,

Mr. and Mrs. Reinhart in Chicago and taken to Gary
Goetsch returned last week
to their home near Belfair
from a vacation trip to Wis-
consin, where they spent two
months as guests of Mr.
Goetsch's relatives. A large
part Of the time they were
in the Wausau and Merrill
homes of uncles, aunts and
cousins.
It wa on a fai'm between these
two cities that Reinhart's father,
the late John Goetsch. long time
resident 'of Harstine Island lived
many yeLrs before coming' west
about the .beginning of the cen-
tury.
where two days were spent vis-
iting places of interest in that 'city
and along the shores of Lake
Michigan.
ON THE DAY of their depar-
ture several hours were spent in
seeing Chicago and several of its
points of special interest includ-
ing the Field :Museum of Natural
History.
Wherever the Goetschs went
gifts were" showered upon them so
that when they started for home
it was necessary to pack a big box
to add to their baggage.
AT VANCOUVER, wlaez'e they
picked up their car, a potted plant
and a glass jar of tropical fish
were added to their collection,
which included fancy dishes, vases,
hand-made linens and laces, souv-
enirs of miiny kinds, figurines
All ot]2er members of the John (two horses, a bear, an elephant,
Goetsch fmnily, six brothers andla parrot, two love birds, a duck
three sisters, remained in central and a squirrel), a bag of butter-

until their number runs into the
hundreds.
REINHART is the first of the
John Goetsch family ever to return
to visit the Wisconsin relatives,
and he and his wife were received
enthusiastically and entertained
lavishly in many of the homes.
They were taken to see many
interesting sights and'places, in-
cluding a trip to the summit of
Rib Mountain, the highest point in
the state, from which the sur-
rounding country may be viewed
in all directions for as far as the
eye can. reach.
Beautfful,Indian ummer weather I
prey/lied, for the whole two]
monthS, ..adding. greatly to thel
pleaure..of the visit. [
AT THE beginning of their trip]
Mr. and •.Mrs. Goetsch drove to]
Vanoouver, Wash.. where they left
theircar at the home of Mr. and[
Mrs. Vincent Strecker, formerly
of Shelton (Mrs. Strecker and Mrs.
Goetsch are sisters).
From Vancouver the trip to Wis- '
consin was made on the Great
Northern's Empire Bullet, the fast
streamliner which made the 2,000
miles in exactly 39 hours and 40
minutes, through Washington,
Idaho, Montana, North Dakota,
Minnesota and into Wisconsin.
Before leaving Wausau the
Goetschs received an invitation to
visit a cousin in Gary, Ind. They
accepted and were met at the train
Rib Mountain granite, hundreds
of photographs, two hand woven
rugs, and a quart of home-made
maple syrup.
This syrup was in a glass jar
and was carefully carried with the
hand luggage while on the train
and guarded diligently whenever

WHEN THE Goetschs reacled
the home of Mr:' ana Mrs. George
Carlson in the Pickermg district,
Snowball, Golden Slippers and
Baggy Britches, the black Cocker
Spaniel and two Persian eats
which the Carlsons had kept while
their owners were away, were also
added to the bulging load, and the
happy couple proceeded to their
own home, where they turne4 on
the radio and heard that beautiful
Wisconsin scenery which they had
so lately viewed wa9 now com-
pletely obscured by a thick blan-
ket of snow.
