DESIRE INVESTIGATION FOR ALL
Nebraska Underwriters Association
Takes Action on Insurance
Question.

The Nebraska Life Underwriters asso-
citation held its regular monthly meeting
last evening at the Commercial club rooms.
The following resolutions were passed:
whereas, Investigations by the legislative
committee of the state of New York have
disclosed practices and transactions by oth-
GERS Of certain life insurance companies
whose acts Of greed and extravaganza we
earnestly and Indignantly condemn; and
Whereas, We have chosen the business or
life insurance as our life work, and are
even more interested in the stability and
good management of companies than the
average policyholder; and
Whereas, We firmly believe that the ma
tority of our life insurance companies are
honestly and ably managed, yet we discern
feeling of doubt and hesitancy In the
mind of the public as to all companies;
therefore, now that the public conscience
is awakened to life insurance matters, we
trust that ali the companies will be ex-
amined in order that confidence may be re-
stored and the public know who and where
the honest trustees are, whether OF COM
panies located in the east or in the west.
Therefore, be 1t
Resolved, That we request and demand
that life insurance companies chartered by
the state of Nebraska should be investi-
gated by a legislative committee or eX-
amined by an expert actuary of such stand
ing as S. H. Wolfe or d. L. Fackler in
order that the citizens and policyholders
of our state may know whether their poll
cies are legally and properly safeguarded
and their equities carefully secured, and
thus make certain that these companies
have sufficient assets properly invested,
to cover all their liabilities, and also ascer-
tain whether undue extravaganza, nepotism
or other bad practices exist.
The annual statements of the companies
of the state, sworn to by their officers and
on file with the state auditor, show that
they used between "a and IS per cent of
their entire income for expense of manage
ment, while the companies investigated by
the New York legislative committee, and
those most severely criticized, have used
for this purpose less than half as much.
for the complete protection of policyholders
they should be amended, and If not COM
