The AETNA CASE.
1t Was Checked Up to the Supreme
Court Today.

The Aetna Insurance company anti
trust case was submitted to the SUI
preme court today without argument
by agreement of both the attorneys
for the state and for the defendant
corporation. This action, which was
hands of the supreme court and will
probably be passed on some time this
winter
1t vas in 1908 when Fred S. Jack
son as attorney general filed an action
before Judge Dana in the Shawnee
county district court, claiming that
the Aetna with other companies was
of trade. 1t was charged that Charles
z. Eldridge as a common agent for
numerous companies compiled and
supplied a certain rate book which
was used by agents in violation of the
Kansas statutes. In the trial of this
case before the Shawnee county dis
trict court, the state lost. Notice of
an appeal to the supreme court was
then served.
Later Jackson discovered new evil
dence in the vault of the insurance
commissioner. This evidence showed
that in an investigation of insurance
conditions under the administration
of Governor Stanley, the companies
virtually acknowledged they were act
his possession, Jackson asked the dis
trict court for a new trial, but Judge
Dana sustained a demurrer and the
second case became an object for re-
view by the higher court. The first
case was held back to await a trans
script of the second case. Both rec
ordS are very lengthy and this morn
ing attorneys in the two actions
agreed that both cases should be sub
mitted to the court without argument.

Mrs. A. r. OKeefe, president of the
Kansas Association of Nurses until the

O'Keefe spoke in favor and explanation
of this bill Wednesday at the Y W
c. a. Parts of her address. which was
extremely interesting and clearly word
ed, were a s follows:
Knowing, she began, that the
vital subject to nurses in Kansas today
is nurse registration, I decided to tell
you something of its history, both in
the past and present; if 1 am able
TO convey to you any new thoughts
along this line I shall feel well re-
paid for the small effort this paper
has cost me.
The origin dates back more than
quarter of a century and was suggest
ed by Sir Henry Ackland. of England,
in 1874. A few years later the better
nurses of the kingdom banded together
and asked the house of commons TO
pass a law whereby the nurses might
be registered. To England belongs the
distinction of having the first register
