The object of the paper is to point out that a properlyconceived insurance plan will yield an important social gain by tending to encourage private actions in peacetime having the effect of reducing our national vulnerability to bombing; conversely, a poorly-conceived plan will tend to discourage expenditures designed to reduce vulnerability.
