Agents Say Law Allows Them to So

On One License.

Some question appears TO have arisen
in the minds Of the court officials AM
other members of the District Govern
nent as to whether or not the Insurance
Department, under Superintendent
Drake, will be able to maintain the cru
sade which it has instituted against in
surance solicitors The prosecutions
that have been instituted and those IN
der contemplation are against agents
who have taken out licenses in the name
Of one company and are soliciting busi-
nes for another.
It is asserted in the interest OF the
agents that the license law provides for
the licensing OF the agent, and not the
restricting OF him to the soliciting Of
business for single COMPANY The in
suTance bUCiness is rarely conducted in
that manner, and the companies them
selves prefer that the risks should be
diversified They coUntenaDCc the plac-
ing Of certain business with other com
Panies by their agents
THIS view is shared by many Of the
legal fraternity, and even by those con
EeCted with the courts Regret is ex-
pressed that H L Perrfne. who was ar
