are set forth in the general memoranda
accompanying this report. They are
merely explanatory of the practical
working of the provisions of the charter
In our conversations with the officers
on this subject we were impressed BY the
ample provisions OF the charter, and We
are decidedly Of the opinion that any
further arguments or stipulations be
tween the Association and any of its de-
partments are not only unnecessary,
but inadvisable. Were it otherwise it
might give rise to different contracts,
allowing distinctive privileges 10 the
various departments, which would effect
lively destroy the mutuality Of the or
ganization, and we believe that if gen
tlemen consider that the working of the
Association is to he that of a purely
mutual company in which the trunk
ana the branches are each equally de-
pendent upon the other, they will agree
with us in this conclusion.
Your committee returned home, hav-
ing decided for themselves TO become

ton.
