Has Requested Superintendent Of Insur-
ance for State to Make Immediate,
Thorough and Drastic
Investigation,

New York, April 2. a conference Of
five hours in the New York office OF
State Superintendent of Insurance Hen
bricks, at which were present represen-
tatives Of the life assurance society
controversy, was followed by the issu-
ance of two official statements, one OF
which suggested solution Of the differ
enee, and a second some hours later,
by James II. Hyde, first vice president
of the society, who declared that he
had requested the state insurance de-
partment to make thorough and
drastic investigation of the entire man
agement of the society," These two
statements were the first which have
been given out since the present series
Of conferences began.
James II. Hyde issued the following
statement:
no the agents and policy-holders OF
the Equitable life assurance society;
The public press for several weeks past
has been filed with scandalous charges
relating to my conduct as a director
and officer Of the Equitable society.
These charges are false. They have
their origin in the effort by individuals
to obtain control OF the Euitable society
and its assets. 1t il impossible for
me to meet them and to have their
falsity established in the newspapers,
and as the only way to meet them, |
have requested the superintendent Of
the insurance department Of the state
Of New York to make an immediate,
thorough and. drastic investigation OF the
entire management OF the society.
As Re the granting OF participation in
the control Of the society 10 policy
holders, / have ever since the subject
was first preached expressed my willing
ness to have the stock left by my father
voted BY the trustees in whose he hands
he left it, in favor Of granting such
participation, and upon that subject /
am in entire accord with the board OF
directors Of the Equitable society, with
the New York policy holders committee
and with the superintendent IL insur
anee of the state Of New York.
| do not control the Equitable life
assurance society. The stock left by
my father, the founder OF the society,
is held BY trustees, OF whom the presi
dent OF the society, James w. Alexand-
er, is one. The only power OF that stock
is TO elect directors and as to that no
question has ever arisen between the
trustees and myself since my fathers

Pull hair from your head -if II is
plump and rosy it is healthy, but if it
is white and shrunken it is certainly dis
eased - and diseased hair is the short
road to a bald head. Few people can
afford bald head, for bald head is
serious handicap. In these days
when youth is moving factor, when
a man has to make his mark at thirty
FIVE or be dubbed "has been -" when
business houses pension the man we
used to call middle aged" rather
than allow their tagging influence to
intrude upon the modern rush - you
will certainly believe us in saying a bald
head is a serious handicap. Few people
can afford bald head. Even those who
can those who are fixed socially
financially and matrimonially have no
desire for bald heads. But whether we
can afford it or not, thousands of us are
bald, either partially or wholly. What
caused the badness, whether an inheri-
ted tendency, undue mental effort, sick.
ness, dandruff or other scalp disease,
makes no difference. What we want is
to grow new hair.

SWEEPING VICTORY FOR THE AMER
CAN STOCKGROwERy ASSOCIATION

c. NJ. O'Donel, who attended the big
meeting OF the American : l-ock Grow.
ers' association in Denver, ! brings
back the interesting news that the
National Live Stock association has
surrendered horse and foot. has sunk
its name and merged Its identity into
that of the former organization. This
means the stock growers Of the na-
ton are united In an organization
composed Of horsemen, eOwmen
sheepmen and goat men. pig men and
mule men and that the packing and
railway and commission interests
have been eliminated.
It will be remembered that the
American Stock Growers last year
withdrew from the National associa.
ton on account Of the insistence OF
the latter on admitting the alleged
kindred interests. Now. however, the
mistake has been realized and the
stock association will be for stockmen
only.
Following is the signed statement
of President Hagenbartn of the Ma.
tional and President 4. acKenzie OF the
American association:
The executive committees respec-
lively of the National Live Stock as
