KINGSTON, Jamaica, Sept. 2S-There is
bitter feeling against the English insur~
ance companies growing out Of the actions
arising from the disaster of last January.
1t is charged that the companies are de-
laying the cases by technicalities.
The latest move Is an announcement by
counsel that the companies propose in
one action to make a counter claim for
the declaration that the loss sustained by
the policy holders was caused by an
earthquake. This means, if it succeeds,
that other cases cannot be proceeded
with, because the companies would win
under the earthquake clause.
