RATES STILL IN, BALANCE
No Settlement in Royal Arcanum
Matter Of Tariff. A Card
from the Secretary.

Local members of the Royal Area
mum are still exercised over the pro-
posed raise in the insurance rates of
the order, and are awaiting with in
terest the decision of the supreme
council, which is at present in Boston
considering protests against the new
schedule recently adopted. 1t is ex-
pected that this conference will this
week announce its ultimatum in the
matter.
The following statement from the
secretary of the order was recently
published in the Insurance Herald:
"The rate tables adopted at Allan
tic City were the result of many years
of work and they represent the high
est skill in the insurance business.
The simple fact is that the Royal Ar
canum has been conducting its bust
ness on basis on which no insurance
business can be conducted and sur
vive. 1t took us twenty-eight years to
find this out and to find out on what
rate basis we could do business and
maintain our existence.
Reserve FUND Wiped Out.
'The result OF that experience and
OF over four years of hard study is
the series of rate tables adopted at
Atlantic City. We have a reserve
fund of about $4,000, 900, and it was
only by giving the older members the
benefit of that fund, by wiping that
fund out and applying it to the uses
of the order-it was only by doing this
that the monthly dues for members IS
years of age on a $1,000 policy were
kept kept down to where they are,
SlG.08. But for the use of the reserve
fund in that way the monthly dues for
such members would have been lit
tie over $50.
"There is dissatisfaction among
some of these older members and it is
perhaps natural that there should be.
1t is true that many of them have be-
| longed to the order for a great mum
Der of years and have paid their dues
regularly. But it is also true thai
during all those years their families
had the benefit of being protected by
the order to the extent of the money
on which they paid dues. That a
least should be considered by then
in estimating the exact extent of theil
grievance from the increased rates"

stopping of shooting in the District will
go a long way toward preserving game;

AS it is, Mr. Palmer said, ducks now
come as near as Alexandria, Vac If
not chased by hunters in launches, they
would no doubt. stay in the District.
There is no reason he said, why shoot
ing should be allowed within the Dis
trfct limits. If shooting were prohibited
here, the District could be made the
best refuge for native game of any
place - tho East he believes.
Maryland, Mr.. Palmer said, has al
ready taken steps to prevent the annoy
ance and destruction of game in its
waters by long" gun hunters. The
laws Of that Satate prohibit. not only the
use of the ''lonp or swivel gun by
hunters, but provides a penalty for the
