in session two days, concluded it's
meet this AFTERNOONS and adjourned to
meet again with the national com
nittee OF the state insurance commits
zion, which meets September next.
The last business considered before

they decided that the deferred divi.
dendp policy was unsound and unjust
in principle, and that legislation

evils of this system; that life inslr,
ance companies should publish annual
statements: that provision should be
made for the apportionment OF the
surplus to every polieyholder;; that
the aggregate of the surplus should
be apportioned so as to be charged
ais a liability Of the company; that an
annual accounting should be made
fer the surplus, and that each policy.
holder should he entitled to withdraw
his share of the surplus.
The committee decided that there
should be divisions or jurisdi lions !;
zach state should have forms Of in
lst1rance policies and that no Other
forms should be permitted, although
uniformity in policies is desired.

Army GRAFT
Congress ny to Legislate Against
Padding Army Mileage
= = Accounts

1 Washington, Feb. 3.-The house
committees on military affairs, Of
which Representative Hull of Iowa is
chairman, has determined to put an
end TO graft In the army.
IL congress enacts legislation in &C.
eordance to its Recommendations mile
age accounts can no longer be padded,
nor can army transports be used for
excursions by officials, members of
congress or any one else. The COM
mittee is searching for other leaks in
the laws which permit diversion of
money into the pockets of interested
parties.
I'VE estimate that $4,000 has been
paid out in mileage said Representa-
tive Hull, ito which the recipients
were not entitled. They got hold of
the money by evading the law which
congress has enacted for the express
purpose of introducing economy in
transportation. The intention of con-
gress was to reduce the amount of
money an officer should receive who
was under orders to the Philippines.
THE law states specifically that
only actual expenses shall be paid be-
tween the United States and Its in
salar possessions, but we have found
that officers have been ordered to
Nagasaki, Japan, or Shanghai, or even
down to Honglsong, and thence to
Manila. travelling. with the exception
OF the hast leg, On government trans
ports. They have received mileage
when they should be reimbursed only
for their actual expenses and the lat
ter amount to about 81 day, while
mileage for the trip amounts into the
hundreds" .,s.
