Frelinghuysen Sees No
Spy Danger in Reinsurance

Washington, Aug. 1.-"Mr. Hurd IS
entitled to his opinion" said Senator
Frelinghuysen, OF New Jersey, when
told tonight of the action Of the
Lawyers Mortgage Company in can
ceiling all policies with companies re-
insuring with German companies. Il
do not agree with him, of course"
Mr.. Frelinghuyscn then discussed mis-
proposed amendment to the Trading
with the Enemy Dill, which has al
ready been accepted by a suo-commlt-
tee of the Senate Commerce Commit
tee.
"All of the German agencies and
companies" he said, "would be com
PEELED to keep their reserves and
premiums here in America, as reserve
to protect the contracts they have
written. These companies, despite
what may be said, are undoubtedly able
TO protect their contracts. Whether any
particular concern cares to do business
with them or not. il is only justice TO
the American interests involved that
these companies should not be sewn
up in a bag. Otherwise American COM
panies will have TO pay losses which
should be shared by the German COM
panies.
Should Return Premiums
az they are prevented from going
ahead with thei1 business, at least the
policies they now have should be liqui-
dated. If policies of reinsurance are
cancelled. then that portion OF the
premium which has been paid by the
American companies to the German re-
insurance companies, covering time not
vet elapsed. should be returned other
wise the blow to the parent companies,
or the companies which did the original
writing Of the contracts with the IN
sured, might be severe.
"Now. as to the danger of German
agents obtaining information through
having access to the records and books
of the German reinsurance companies,
think il has been grossly exaggerated.
| probably know more about how the
insurance business is conducted than
any other Senctor, and | think can
make il clear to any Senator opposing
my amendment that my view is cor
rect.
at is true that reinsurance COM
panies have the right to make surveys
of plants on which they take insurance
through another company, but as
matter of fact a reinsurance company
virtually never does so. IL is content
to take it's risk along with the parent
company, as the company writing the
business is called.
Maps Open TO All Agents
"All the maps showing the waterlines
and such other information as ia vital
in writing insurance on property, are
open TO all insurance agents.
al would not be party to any sec
ton of bill which would permit Ger
many TO obtain information which
could be used against this country, but
as a matter of fact all Of these Ger
man companies except one are managed
by Americans. The menace is or was
with the marine insurance companies,
not with the fire insurance companies

Staten Island Road
Asks Permission to
Cut Of 80 Trains
Hearing To Be Held Tomorrow
on Application to Curtail
Passenger Service

The Staten Island Rapid Transit
Company has made application TO the
Public Service Commission for permits
sion TO eliminate eighty-nine passenger
trains from its daily schedule. In the
interest of economy and for war pur'
poses it would reduce its service in the
middle of the day and cut out all trains
late at night and early IN the morning,
leaving the rush hours morning ana
evening untouched. The Public Service
Commission will hold e hearing TO-
morrow morning at 1880 on the APP
plication.
w. H. Averell, general manager OF
the company, states in the company
petition that the Richmond Light and
Railroad Company, which operate
trolley lines in competition with tne
Rapid Transit Company between 81
Geoarge and South Beach and st. George
and Arlington, has expressed willing
ness through Vice-President Rand 70
make the necessary provision for
handling the additional traffic which
would cone to il with the reduction o.
the rapid transit service. On the
North Shore Division this reduction
WOULD mean INC tililllhabiNli VI NNAA 80
bound and ten outbound trains between
9:45 a. m. and 4:l0 p. m, and OF all
night trains between 9:45 p. m. and .
a. m, forty-fve in all. On the South
Beach Division the proposed reduction
between the same hours, would eliml-
nate forty-four trains.
Mr.. Averells reasons for the reduc-
ton, all related to the exigencies OF
the war situation, are: ~ Increase in
the capacity of the line for freight SER
vice; (2) Considerable saving in the
consumption of coal; 90 Saving Of two
engineers, two fremen, two conductors
and four trainmen; (4) Saving in the
number of machinists, boilermakers
blacksmiths and other skilled shop
workers: (5D Saving of steel and other
metal used in the maintenance of loco
motives; 90 Saving in men used for re
pair of passenger coaches; 90 Saving
in material used in their repair.
During the hours in which the pro
posed reduction in service is to be
come effective there is not enough
business for both the Rapid Transit
Company and the trolley lines, Mr.
Averell says.

Has X-Ray to Prove 1t
So Patron of Childs' Asks
$4,000 for Pain and
Expense He Suffered

Moritz D. Splitter is suing the Childs
Restaurant Company for $4,000 dam
ages, in the Supreme Court, for the
pain he says he has suffered and the
expense he has been put to since he
swallowed two tacks, which, he alleges.
were served him in a plate Of vegetable
soup.
Splitter says that he ordered the
soup in the Childs restaurant at AZ
East Fourteenth Street, and that he
discovered, after swallowing a couple
of spoonfuls, that there was something
besides vegetables in the soup.
Splitter said that one of the tacks re-
manned in his body. The Childs Com
pany asked for proof and Splitter had
an X-ray picture made by DR.. ]. B.
Walker.
The picture, fled in the court yes
terday, plainly shows the tack. DR..
Walker said that it was the first time
he knew of such an object remaining
in the body so long, the tacks having
been served in 1915, according 70
