FATE Of BILLIONS
INViLVE IN ACTION OF NATION.
AL FRATERNAL CONvEN-
TloNS THIS MONTH.
Read justment Of Rates TO Be Made
In Basis Of Mortality To Insure
Soleny of Societies.

Detroit, Micht Aug. l7.-Momentou
results affecting fraternal insurance
frcm the viewpoint of heads of state
insurance departments are expected
from the action which Is taken at the
annual conventions of the two great
organizations National Fraternal Con.
gress, August 1918 in Detroit, Asso-
ciated Fraternities of America. Aug,
ust 22.25, IN Atlantic City. Should
either or both bodies fail to endorse
the tentative bill for uniform state
regulation which their committees a.
ready have agreed to the refusal will
be regarded as jeopardizing that por
ton of the outstanding $4,000, 600.
900 of fraternal insurance which has
reached the point calling for prompt
attention by the departments.
The view point of the commissions
ers is expressed in a statement made
public by Commission c. c. Lemert
OF uhio whoEas been associated with
Commissioner r. E. Folk, of Tennes
see and Commissioner James r
Young, of North Carolina, in prear-
ing the uniform bill for greater ref
ulative contol by the states. He
said:
THE uniform bill Is somewhat of
a compromise. | am in hopes, how
ever, that societies represented in
.
the Nationa Fratrnal Congress and
Associated Fraternities of America
will come together in support of the
tentative bill as we have prepared il.
1t represents distinct and positive
advance along all lines for fraternal
societies. | also will be much pleas
ed to see the fraternal system placed
upon a sure footing.
The first association to consider
the bill ! understand, will be the Sa-
tional Fraternal Congress The So
icties represented in this congress
aave repeatedly announced themselves
as in favor of adequate rates If the
Congress stands for the bill I am in
uuptS Llldl AllC ASSONidttu 4 idACl
les will follow with similar action.
rhe bill will then, with such sugges-
tons as may come from these bodies,
be considered by the full committee
on Fraternal Insurance of the lnsur-
ance Commissioners Convention and
some definite action may be looked
for in the coming convention in Mo
bile.
"A large number of the fraternal
societies already have practically at
tackled the problem and have succeed
d in winning their membership TO a
rerating or readiustment of rates. 1t
is absolutely certain that all societ-
les must be placed in solvent posi-
tion**@because some societies per
sistentIy ignore the plain require
ments of insurance principles"

FOUR MARINES MUST

The four marines who were captured

mally charged at the police station.
Their otfense carries, with conviction,
fine not exceeding one thousand dol
lars or five years in jail, or both, for
each one of them.
This crime is the sixth of series
that has extended over but a few
months. The actual details in this case
are not as vile as those in the past
few where the perpetrators have es-
capped 50 far on MINOR charges through
illegal technicalities. - but this was
only because they were halted at the
point of the gun in the act of com
hitting the crime.
Had the police officers arrived few
minutes later there would have been a
lynehing on Punchbowl as most of the
young girls assaulted lately have been
Portuguese. In only one case out of
the six has the victim been over ten
