Albany, March g. Probably never
before has more remarkable gather
ing Of life insurance men been
brought together under single roof
than that which met today in the state
capitol in connection with the hear
ing on the pending amendments to the
insurance law. The hearing was that
of the joint special legislative insur-
ance investigating committee and was
the first public opportunity Of the in
surance companies to express them
selves upon the provisions of the ten
bills presented by the committee to
the legislature as a result of it's in
vestigation.
Would Cut Business.
Alexander e. Orr, president Of the
New York Life, said the enactment of
the bills as they now stand would cut
in half the business of his company,
especially as they would take effect
Immediately, without giving the CON-
panies chance to conform gradually
to the law. He declared the effects
of the legislation would be felt
throughout the country, and that the
responsibility would rest upon the
committee.
