Report Might Be Weapon.

His statement that the committee has
no power to delve into the internal office
management of an individual company
came at the end of a statement by him
that the committee should bear in mind
that its report. to be made shortly, would
be seized upon by rival insurance COM
panies. and any criticism would be used
as a business weapon to club the First
National or the Commercial Fire Insur-
ance Company.
Mr.. Carusi. early in his argument, de-
tended the " per cent which the First
National paid to Tuttle, Wightman 4
Dudley for selling the stock of the COM
pany. He said it was not too great a
percentage, considering the remarkable
work done.
The First National" he said, was
organized through the use of the mails

successful in this scheme Of Organiza-
tion. Other companies organized in
other ways have paid from 20 to So
