NEW FEDERATION OF
INSURANCE AGENTS
Is ORGANIZED HERE
State Body Covering Life,
Fire and Casualty Brokers
Will Make War on Pro-
posed Obnoxious Laws.

Organization of the Insurance Fedora
ton Of Pennsylvania has been completed.
1t has established temporary head
quarters in the rooms of the Fire Insur-
ancc Society, in Fourth street near Wal
nut. The federation is made UP of life,
fire and casualty insurance agents and
brokers throughout the state.
In letter to brokers and agents. ].
w. Henry, president of the newly formed
federation, declares that the future of
the insurance agent in Pennsylvania is
in danger. and that there must be made
a cooperative attack on laws, which, he
says, the next Legislature plans to put
and operation.
"As you are well aware" says Presi-
dent Henry, "the insurance business has
been the subject of attack by Legislatures
in several states, and, as you know, the
insurance agents Of Ohio, West Virginia,
Washington and other States, have been
put out of business after working years
in building up their agencies. We are at
this time confronted in Pennsylvania with
n Legislature about to convene to give
consideration to measures vital to the
interests of the insurance agents in the
State of Pennsylvania, and we must be
prepared to meet the issue fairly by be-
ing organized into a body that will WELD
such an influence as will grant to us as
agents and citizens of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania right to continue in
the insurance business as a means of
iZed in Ohio and other States, they would
still have their business.
IF the insurance business Is attacked
and legislation passed which is detrimen-
tai to the business, there will be no
further need of the agent. The insur-
ance companies have no right to come
in and say what character OF legislation
shall be passed. but we. as citizens. tax
payers and voters of this Commonwealth
should say what sort Of legislation shall
be put upon our bread and butter.
"Only organization can save and per-
petuate to us the need of the agent in
Pennsylvania, and as fire insurance. work.

WAR WEEK BEGINS
More Confidence Every

Exchange Reopening Is
Evidence of Improved

This is the eighth week of hostilites in
Europe and is also the eighth week since
there developed the financial depression
incident to the closing OF the world S
Stock Exchanges because of the war
Many things have happened at home and
abroad IN the meantime. There is no in
dication that any cessation of hostilities
that there is at hand a rendjustment of
the financial situation which shall lead
shortly to a more normal resumption or
general business.
AT no time during the eight long weeks
the suspension has been under way has
the outlook been 80 bright as 1t Is today.
There is everywhere apparent that gen.
eral feeling of confidence which has been
so badly needed and which has made
itself felt to such large degree that In
the financial centres of the country plans
are being gradually worked out for mar
ket operations on a larger scale than
ever.
London, New York and Philadelphia
markets. have arranged to begin tradinS
In securities within certain restrictions.
Tbe committee of the London Exchange
has published q list of securities In which
trust funds may be invested and has given
minimum prices for the same. There Is
also a proposal at the British centre to
deal in securities through auctioneers.
At home the most important step that
has been taken Is the ruling that unlisted
securities may be dealt in through brokers
and that prices must not be rigidly main
tanned on the basis available when the
Stock Exchange closed in July. All this
means preparations for actual business
gradually widened.
Managers of the Stock Exchange are
now under the impression that business
may be resumed in an unrestricted way
on November l. This Is still dependent
on the banking situation and the esti-
mate of November / Is contingent upon
the ability of the Federal Reserve Board
to have the new banking conditions in
practical workable form before that date
Now that the $1O0, 900 gold pool to

fetal results are reflected In q setback

posed to make a first call on the sub
