WHEN W0HE1URE INSURED
Companies Do Not Grant Them the
Same Bates as Men.
PUZZLING INTUITION OF THE SEX
Those Who Are Unmarried and Self-Supporting-
Are the Heat lllska
"A Faaclnntlnar Dial
ntu." Is It the Intuition of women which
warns them of approaching death, and
makes them undesirable risks for Insur
ance companies? Are unmarried women
better risks than married women? All
things considered, should women be ac
cepted as readily as men and on equal
termsT These arc some of the questions
discussed at the medical section meeting:
of the American Life Insurance associa
tion In St. Paul recently. The Insurabil
ity of women Is at present one of the
most Interesting- and uncertain phases of
"the most fascinating business In the
world," as J. F. Roche, vice president of
the Manhattan Life Insurance company,
called It.
"I am convinced that this belief In wom
en's Intuition Is based solely on the fact
that the medical examinations of women
are not an thorough as those of the men,"
he said in a New York Post Interview,
"and 4hnt women are more apt to have
diseases of which they alone are aware.
Of course, when these women are In
sured, It Is a case of decidedly adverea
selection. But women are divided Into
four classes with us. and one of these
classes compare favorably with men. In
fact, statlstlm show that they are even
more favorable than men.
"This class Is made up of unmarried,
self-supporting women. They are the best
risks, and next to them come widows and
divorcees, who. In this Instance only, are
classed together. The worst risks are the
married women, although those whose
premiums are made payable to their es
tates are not as unsafe as those who
make them parable to their husbands.
Formerly Insurance companies discrim
inated against women by charging an
extra premium, but that Is not so now,
although most companies still limit tho
Insurance of women. But this may
change In tho near future, as all old Ideas
concerning women are changing." .
Even now eight companies accept
women on equal terms with men, accoid
lug to the report madif by Dr. Ambrose
Talbot of Kansaa City. And It Is the
belief of Louis T. Dublin, statistician of
I he Metropolitan Life. New York, that
this equality should and will soon be
generally recognized, lie Is quoted ns
summing up the situation In this way:
"It Is fair to conclude, therefore, that
the mortality experience of women In
sured In ordinary plans can be made to
present tho same favorable aspect as that
which Is now observed among Insured
men. To bring such results about, the
Insurance companies need only to be up
and abreast nf the times. They must V
ready to appreciate the changing status
of women In the social and economic
world. Women are becoming more and
more economic producers. Millions of
women are todny engaged In Industry.
"All sharp limitations of a former time
as tc what was woman's sphere are being
broken down, Ttlid we nderpslo .By
s'fde with man In the steel mill' as well as
In the office. Kven housewives are recoff
nlzed as having an economic position fully
comparable with that of their sisters In
Industry. Under such conditions It Is a
narrow policy which would put unneces
sary and harsh restrictions on the Insur
ance of women on Hip score of sex a.Ione.
"I believe that this advanced attitude
In developing our plans for the insurance
of women will have to be taken. The Held
Is a large and growing one, and presentc.
to active Insurance men a virtually un
touched sphere for active canvassing.
Methods must be somewhat changed, but
the prospect Is a promising opr. It a
sufficiently representative exposure be
obtained, the death ratn as well as the
lapse rate will be found to be satisfac
tory." E. L, Swobe Back from
Chicago Convention
President Edwin T. Swobe of the Na
tional Fidelity and Casualty company
has returned from Chicago, where he at
tended the convention of the American
Association of Accident Underwriters.
Mr. Swobe was very much In evidence at
the convention, and besides delivering a
strong address, was elected chairman of
the executive committee of the associa
tion for the ensuing year.
lils addiess waa upon the subject of
supervision and taxation, and he said In
part:
They seem to center their efforts to
secure the agents of other companies,
offering them large bonuses to twist the
business to them. Such a policy Is a
costly one and will not endure. The agent
who has been made the go-between, soon
begins to overestimate his value, and
when he has run his course with one
raiding company he negotiates with an
other and is usually employed with a
suostanuai advance, no verirication Do
ing mado as to his statements or any
attempt made to ascertain the amount of
his indebtedness with the companies with
whom he has been engaged. The Insur
ance commissioner who gives his sup
port to the upbuilding of the business
and cancels the license of an agent who
has been found guilty of twitting the
business of one company to that of an
other after a fair and Impartial hearing
should have our hearty commendation.
The percentage of insurable risks In
sured under accident and health policies
Is very small. The business Is only In its
infancy. Thousands of risks are dally
reaching the insurable age. The oppor
tunity of the companies for legitimate
business Is constantly broadening. The
agitation which la rapidly spreading in
favor of compensation Insurance Is the
strongest possible Indication that the
people are become aroused to the haz
ards of everyday life and believe that
every employe should be compensated In
the event of accidental Injury. The wise
employer protects his liability through a
compensation or liability policy, and the
employe knowing that the compensation
which he can hope to receive from his
employer Is Insufficient to meet his needs
when Incapacitated through Injury, to
follow his vocation, owes a duty to him
self which can only be supplied through
accident and health Insurance.
UNDERWRITERS CONDOLE
WITH BRECKENRIDGE FAMILY
The following resolution was offered
and adopted by the American Association
of Accident Underwlters at the Chicago
convention upon the death of Ralph W.
Breckenrldge
Whereas. The Honorable Ralph W.
Breckenrldge of Omaha, Neb,, was for
many years a distinguished Insurance
lawyer and a leading specialist on the
subject In the northwest, who gave freely
of his time, talents and money to all
movements for a more gtnersl and ac
curate knowledge of all matters per
taining to Insurance and.
Whereas, Mr. Breckenrldge was origi
nally scheduled to deliver the formal ad-
the Insurance Field
dress before this convention and whereas
his recent and untimely death Is a
source of special grief to this associa
tion, therefore be It
Resolved, That the American Associa
tion of Accident Underwriters In Its an
nual convention assembly tenders to the
family of the deceased. Its most heart
felt sympathy In this Its hour of grief.
St. Paul Convention
Brings Up Vital
Insuranoe Issues
Bascom II. Robinson, president of the
Bankers Reserve Life company, this
city, haa Just returned from a three
weeks' outing at the lakes of northern
Iowa and Minnesota. During the trip
he and party motored 1,760 miles through
out a region which has been well supplied
with rain and where the crops uro lux
uriant and business conditions are good.
Mr. Roblson's objective point was
the American Life convention it 8t.
Paul, August 19 to S3, composed of 110
legal reserve life companies, and wus
largely attended, speaking of tho con
vention. President Robison said:
"The program dealt with practical
questions of Vital Interest to the mem
bers as well as to the entire Insurance
fraternity of the country. Discussions
on the several topics were animated lind
Instructive. Tho convention adopted a
resolution for co-operation for oane
supervision and for uniformity In In
surance law In the several state, it
was the most Important step ever taken
toward securing uniform laws tor afe
and sane supervision In the Interest of
safety and perpetutty of ll'e insurance
companies, while looking to the nbsotule
security of policyholders.
"The resolution on this subject i-m-bodled
an Invitation to the National Con
vention of Insurance Commissioner nnd
the Association of Life Insurance Presi
dents, each to elect annually ten fra
ternal delegates to the American Life
convention. The object Is to tv-ordlnalo
the three great organizations In the
movement for rational and Just super
vision lawS In all the states. When that
Is effected It will constitute a trinity of
great Influence for good.
"It was Important to note the ntU
tude of the fraternal congress, the two
great controlling organizations of the
fraternal societies working alontf similar
lines In solving the perplexing problems
confronting the fraternal societies of the
country.
"The life underwriters associations
will hold an annual convention during
September at Atlanta, with a program of
live topics, a discussion of which will
give added strength to the advanced po
sition taken by the allied convention
forces. The program of this forthcom
ing convention, like that of the American
Life convention at St. Paul, Is notewor
thy because It holds to the principle that
the Interest of the policyholder la para
mount. Alt these great bodies of Insur
ance men are being directed toward a
higher and better plane. They are arous
ing public sentiment to the abuses which i
have served to harass and retard the I
growth of life Insurance by the levy of
unjust taxation and the Imposition of
unnecessary restrictive supervision.
"Life Insurance," continued Mr. Robi
son, "Is the greatest economic factor In
the body politic It reaches every hearth
stone apd m.ustj?e,..M sacredly fostered
andsftfeguardeflas the home Itself. It
Is of the highest Importance that the
abuses. Inconsistencies and crudities of
Insurance law be considered and remedied
by tho poople through their agents, the
Insurance commissioners and by remedial
legislation In the future. In the work
they may be sure of receiving the sym
pathy and support of the executive offi
cers of life Insurance companies, as well
as of policyholders and many others who
know the Incalculable value of life Insur
ancethe greatest' beneficent Institution
of the age."
Reverting to the American Lire con
vention, Mr. Robison said that It was a
voluntary organization of legal reserve
life companies for purposes of co
operation and education. It Is the larg
est convention of the kind In the world.
At the St. Paul meeting some very able
papers were read by representative men
on various topics, a few of which are
mentioned:. Departmental supervision,
hazardous occupations, waste from lapsa-
tlon, agency supervision, ethical and non
ethical competition, The medical section
discussed mortality statistics, the popu
larizing of health conservation and the
Insurability of women. The executive
sessions were devoted to discussions of
dipartmental supervision, medical ex
aminations, lapsailons and! that ever
present problem, first-year expense, and
other kindred subjects.
New Companies Take
On Names of Some
of the Elders
One of the smaller subjects briefly
touched upon In the discussion of the In
surance commissioners at their national
convention held In Burlington, Vt ,
early this month, related to thi bad habit
prevalent In some sections of the count: y
among a certain class of Insurance com
pany promoters, of christening ttntr cor
porate Infants under names vhlch are
wholly or partially owned and honorably
used by prominent and successful com.
panics, The West and South are serious
offenders In this. In those sections thnre
are several new companies called Pru
drntlnl: In Alabama I hare is n Mutuul
Benefit; a western state has a Gibraltar
Life Insurance company, which suggests
a trade mark long used by a large east
ern company; and In Missouri there Is
a Fidelity and Casualty company. There
have been Innumerable fire Insurance
companies started under the title.
"Home," but J.hey all seem to fall.
The committee on laws inJ UK'xlitlon
of the National Convention of Insurance
Commissioners, In Ha report, recom
mended the enactment of a law In the
several states empowering commissioners
to refuse certificates to any sort of
organization bearing the name of another
already doing business or nearly resem
bling such name. This would be a proper
provision. Promoters of new companies
take such name purposely, hoping to
trade on the reputations of the com
panies bearing them. Such persona are
common cheats and should be circum
vented. JAMES W. GRACE SUCCEEDS
SUITEHALL WITH TRAVELERS
Commencing today James W. Grace will
became manager of the liability branch
for the Travelers' Insurance co'mpany In
Omaha, succeeding William Bultehall, who
goes to Minneapolis.
The change Is made to permit Sultehatl
to look after the workmen's coropensa-
tlon business of the company In Minne
apolis, following the new Minnesota taw,
effective October 1. Mr. Grace was form
erly assistant manager of the Indian
apolls liability branch and haa been
steadily advancing since his employment
with the Travelers In 1907.
Reunion of Rival Fed
erations of Fraternal
Insuranoe Orders
"All of the 0.000.000 members of the fra
ternal Insurance orders," says the Chi
cago Inter-Ocean, "ar to lw congratu
lated on the reunion, effected In Chicago
the other day, of the once rival federa.
tlons of theso societies. Fraternal In
surance can now piefcnt a solid front.
It has given answer to the cavil of Its
adversaries, uf inability to agree about
what It wants In legislation
"Fraternal Insurance had Its beginning
In benevolent aspiration which almost al
ways lacked nccurate knowledge. Hut It
has performed social services of enormous
value. It haa prevented literally millions
of widows and orphans from becoming
dependents on public charity. It hns en
able millions of famllUs to go on as such
after the death of the husband and
father. It has brought home to the flio
sides of the masses the benefits of ll(o
Insurance.
"Starting wrong, In the financial senre,
though right In the humanitarian sense,
It has had much to learn of the scler.UOo
principles of life lnsurarcc. Its leadirs
have learned by hard experience that tho
lawa of mortality arc Inexorable and that
the only wuy to make sore that douth
rlalms will he honorably paid Is fully to
provldo for their payment before death
occurs.
Under various Intluences thse leadars
differed aa to time ami method of applica
tion of the lesson of experience. Hence
the division now happily ended In reunion.
The 'National Fraternal congress' now
rnnnns all that Its name says. It Is fully
commissioned to sp4ak for all the fra
ternal Insurance societies"

TIE OF HUMAN BROTHERHOOD
PASTOR WILLIAMS' THEME
'The idea of human brotherhood pre
valent today, owes much to Christianity
and the early teachings of Christ," said
Rev. II. D. Williams In his sermon on
"The Tie of Human Brotherhood" at
the First Methodist church. The subject
was chosen as appropriate to the labor
day season. The minister reviewed the
great awakening of the responsibility of
human bortherhood In the klavery days
that flnaaly culminated In the freeing
of the slaves that had long been regarded
less than human b the element that
sought to continue their enslavement
