TION TO BE SWIFT
(By Associated Press. }

Washington, d. G., July 19.-Presi
dent Wilson returned from Cornish
today and with Secretary Lansing
discussed the draft of the note to be
sent to Germany this week informing
the imperial government what the
United States will do if there is fur
ther violation of American rights on
the high seas.
The return of the President from
Cornish gave Secretary Lansing his
first opportunity to confer on the
American policy.
1t is understood that President Will
son and Secretary Lansing found
they had reached the same conclusion,
that the next communication to Ger
many must be of definite character,
making Enthusiastically clear the fact
that the United States can not be ex-
pected to remain passive in the event
of another attack on unarmed ships
with the loss of American lives.
The note will be placed before the
cabinet tomorrow and will probably
go to Berlin on Saturday.

RISK BOARD
MOVEMENT STARTED TO
TEST VALIDITY OF IN
SURANCE LAW

Oklahoma City, Okla, July ia
movement that was started soon after
the new insurance board law went in
to effect, having as its object the
overthrow Of that law, has progressed
to the point where it will soon be in
court in the form OF a, suit to test the
constitutionality of the act creating
an insurance board and otherwise
changing the law. The suit is being
prepared by two firms of insurance
lawyers in this city. 1t is to be in be-
half of the Insurance Company of
North America, backed by a large
number of underwriters Of the state.
The law in question was enacted by
the fifth legislature and, among other
things, it gives to the insurance board
therein created a great deal Of the
power that was vested by the consti-
tuition in the state insurance commits
sioner
1t also attempts to prevent the
writing of insurance wherein the en-
tire commission is not received by the
agent signing the policy. 1t imposes
a per cent privilege tax on business
written outside the state and gives the
insurance board great power as to the
licensing of agents and the approval
or rejection of policy forms, making it
impossible for underwriters to adver-
tise as such under certain conditions,
and enforcing the filing face of the
policies to contain most conspicuously
the name of the responsible insurance
company, rather than the underwrit-
ing agency, as has sometimes been
the case.
How Board is Made Up.
The insurance board as constituted
under the new law consists of the
state insurance commissioner as ex-
officio chairman, the state fire mar
shal and secretary to be third
member of the board, appointed by
the governor. The personnel Of the
board is A. L. Welch, insurance COM
missioner; c. c. Hammonds, fire
marshal, and w. r. Samuel, secretary.
While he has not publicly so de-
clared, it is clear that the attack upon
the law is pleasing to Insurance Com
missioner Welch. He was shorn of
much of his official Importance by
the act and it was passed in an alleged

that nothing else could in the way OF

YOlMANS WITH MUCH
NEW DATA

Oklahoma City, Okla, July 19.-The
trial of the Oklahoma 2-cent passen-
ger fare cases was resumed today in
| the United States district court in this
city before Judge Frank Youmans Of
Arkansas, and, although it is not ex-
pecled the matter at issue will reach
final consideration by the court until
/ the fall is well advanced, each step of
the proceedings will be watched with
interest and anxiety, as a victory for
the contention of the railroads in these
cases would be a matter of vital i'm
portance wherever rate litigation is in
progress. The poads have declared
their intention of attacking the 2cent
fare in the courts in every state where
II is in effect
Should the Oklahoma cases be COM
pleted at this time the hearing will
require several weeks of time, as four
railroads are involved and it will be
necessary to try each case separately
1t is expected the same principles will
apply in all cases, but the deductions
from the statistics presented will be
separate in the case of each road.
Four railroads are involved--the
Santa Fe, Frisco, Rock Island and the
Katy The lpes and the state have
expended several hundred thousand
dollars in developing the showing on
which they rest their cases, expendi-
lures of the state being relatively
small, however, in comparison to that
of the railroads.
Six Millions involved.
About s6,OoO,OOO in accumulated
fares collected by the railroads is in
volved, but the state maintains such
collections are minor consideration
in the litigation, and does not expect
ito compel the lines to refund any
where the entire amount, if the state
wins. owing to the fact that the trav-
cling public has not saved the excess
fare coupons, and there is no other
evidence of a claim on which a de-
mand for refund can be made. If the
state loses, rate regulation every
where will receive staggering blow.
