WORKING OF INSURANCE.

The National convention of insurance
men in Milwaukee is on the right
track decidedly when declaring that
there is too much scaling down or re
lection Of Just insurance claims OF
course, the word Gust is the meat
of the whole matter The insured who
suffers by the inordinate scaling down
would consider one thing to be just,
the insurance company another, and it
is quite possible that an impartial ar
bitrator might not agree with either
of them. But, what the insurance men
say is. that this impartial arbitrator
should be provided in order that Jus
tice be done to both. In the meantime
the statement of the insurance COM
mittee on this point, that ''when deal.
ing with companies doing industrial,

frequently been the victim of uncon-
scionable practices in the claim de.

and insists that promises of reform are
not enough, that there must be some
way provided by law for protecting the
policy-holders, and seeing that just
terms are provided in the policies, and
are enforced when the settlements are
due.
The Mobile insurance law is working
well in this State in regulating frater-
nal life insurance companies. and the
