Submits Brief to the Association

ASKS FOR COMMON JUSTICE
Says 1t Would BE Unfair to Make
Companies Purchase Securities
Manipulated by Dealers.
ASKS FOR COMMON JUSTICE

NEW YORK. March 5.-Announce-
ment was made to-day that Grover
Cleveland has submitted brief to the
Association of Life Insurance Presl-
dents, of which he is the head In re-
ference to certain threatened leglsla-
ton which would force them to invest
their funds in the various States In
proportion to the volume of business
transacted in those States. In his brief
MI. Cleveland says:
1T seems to me apparent that IL the
best Legislative results are to be
reached by safeguarding all the in
terests In any way related to life in
surance and by subscribing the peoples
interests in the premises by the pas
sage OF wholesome laws, those
who make our laws should be
free from all vindictive feeling and
misleading prejudices and duly guarded
against Il dangerous disregard of safe
ana conservative business rules
In many Of tho States contemplating
such legislation, there is normal,
healthy demand for all or nearly all the
| securities contemplated in pending bills
which are SO absolutely safe and un-
| questioned as to excuse life insurance
companies In accepting them as seeurl-
| ties for their trust funds. And they
! were enforced to purchase in such n
market, and must, under severe pains
and penalties, invest in such securities
as remain after investors on the ground
/ have made choice, or to pay for those
more desirable at manipulated advance
invited by their legally created neces-
stiles. None of US has In our biblical
reading discovered any incident which
smacked more of unfairness and oppres-
sion than the exaction by the strong
that those at their mercy should make
bricks without straw"
Mr.. Cleveland questions that this leg
slntion is framed in the interest of the
| pocyholders.
The only class of persons who would be
benefited, he says, are those who deal
/ in securities and the manner in which
the enforced purchase of stipulated aud
restricted securities could operate to their
| advantage Is too plain to need explana-
ton.
In conclusion, Mr.. Cleveland appeals 70,
comfy between States. and complete re-
4 pudiation OF any intent or inclination on
the part CT any State. to gain undue q
\ selfish advantage at the expense and tc
the injury Of its neighbors.
