INSURANCE Is
NOT COMMERCE
Fatal Objection to Supervision by the
Government.
SUPREME COURT ADVERSE
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
is NECESSARY.

II ARTFORD, Conn, oct AT a meet
RI ing of The state board Of trade here
today the report of the committee OF
underwriters on the proposed federal su-
peryision of insurance was presented. The
report says the occasion for present ac-
ton I'm the matter is due to letter upon
the subject from Senator Dryden. asking
for expressions of opinion and answers 10
his inquiries.
The report saws that il is conceded that
federal supervision of insurance can be
accomplished in but one way, namely by
q constitutional law declarin. insurance
TO be commerce. and also that If lnsur-
auce is not commerce, congress has no
power to regulate il. The whole theory
of the proposed Capitalization OF power
rests o. these propositions. The report
continues:
ut is sought to establish federal coli
troll of insurance and to take the chances
on tbs constitutional questions through
a bill in the next congress, modelled on
the Dryden bill OF the last session. with
slight notifications, chat Is. through am
amendment of an act 10 establish Tho
department OF commerce and labor, add
ing 10 tine bureau of corporation an Of
flee called the superintendent of lnsur-
dnce in charge OF a division 10 "a. called
the division OF insurance, ana IOlOWlus
in general lines the powers ana duties
that already obtain in the legislation OF
various states as 10 supervision or lnsur-
ance.
In our belief. all these propositions are
theoretical; they rest on inference and
conjecture. not on precedentS and factsi
and all await demonstration.
They are all confronted by serious OBJ
stacles. Chief among them is the con-
trolling fact that in series or decisions
has declared and affirmed that insurance
is not commerce.

METHODIST BISHOPS IN CONFERENCE


ago Professor Mitchell was before the
bishops and explained his beliefs to
their satisfaction. Since that time he
has published a book called The
Words Before Abraham" in which il
is alleged by many churchmen he has
made heretical statements concerning
the Old Testament. II was this work
which was the basis of the adverse
action six months agO. at which time
the bishops were nearly equally di-
vided over the question. The sessions
Of the conference are all held behind
closed doors that there may be the
greatest freedom in the presentation
and discussion of business and other
matters.
1t is expected that the first three
days of the conference will be devoted
to hearing reports from the superin-
tendents on the work in their particu-
lar fields. Each bishop has practically
absolute authority in his bishopric and
an effort is made at the semi-annuai
conferences to make their work and
decisions harmonious.
OF the total of twenty-eight bishops
comprising the college about twenty
are present.

CHICAGO DENTISTS IN EMBRYO
ENGAGE IN FIGHT WITH POLICE

saw the approach of the patrol wagons,
and the bluecOats were Delted on all
sides with stones and vegetables, while
water was poured on them by students
from the upper floors of the college. After
this state Of affairs had been going on
for some time and the police were getting
decidedly the worst of the battle the
bluecOats drew their revolyers and fired
several shots. This brought the students
TO their senses and they ran in all direc-
lions, but the police succeeded in making
fifteen captures.
All the students bore signs of the con-
tlict in their rent garments, and a num-
Der of them suffered severe cuts about
their heads and faces from the punish
ment administered by the police.
An investigation has been begun by the
faculty and the ringleaders OF the dis
turbance will be punished.

is perhaps the question Of most popu-
