Grated for the benefit of the policy
holders.

enough proxies right now to give me
voting control of the New York Life
and the Mutual Life. The companies
have sent out secret circulars to
agents urging them to get all the
proxies they can and If they cannot
get the proxies they are to get the
policy holders to come to the meeting
so Lawson cannot get them. | have
met that move by sending out a cir
cular to every policy holder urging
him to come to the meeting and not
give any more proxies. I want to get
about $4,000 or $4,000 men down there
where we can to take them. We have
one committee selected and they will
put their trust in that committee. The
New York Life meeting April Z will be
