Both branches of the General As
sembly of Pennsylvania went home
late yesterday afternoon until the aft
ernoon of Wednesday, June 6. The re-
cess gives the lawmakers both Me-
mortal and Registration Days and a
longer weekend at home than at any
time since Inauguration week.
The closing hour of the House was
devoted to passing the full crew sus-
pension bill for the first time, together
with numerous appropriation bills and
some of general character. There
We're few members in the House,
which was conducted by Representa-
tive Ramsey, as Speaker Baldwin was
sitting as CrosseXaminer in the appro-
priation hearing.
The Senate's final session was to
receive bills from committees. There
were half a dozen new bills presented.
including one by Senator F. +. Bald
win. Potter, to authorize third class
cities to establish, acquire and main
tain cemeteries and one by Senator
J. W. Endsley, Somerset, to amend
the appeal clause of the public service
act.
The resolution to authorize heads of
to work on farms, rs suggested by the
state Board OF Public Charities, was
presented by Speaker Baldwin.
The compensation amendment to al
low doctors to charge prevailing
prices in the communities in which
accidents occur was reported out.

MORE WILDCAT"
COMPANIES NOW
Insurance Commissioner Says
That the Legitimate Ones
Should Be Protected

The charge that Pennsylvania has
more wildcat" insurance companies
than any other state was made late
yesterday afternoon at a hearing be-
fore the Senate Insurance Committee,
by Insurance Commissioner ]. Denny
o'Neil. Mrs. O'Neil also said there
are more promotion schemes in the
state of Pennsylvania engaged in
swindling the people than in any other
in the Union. He was appealing for
the passage of the department bill
bringing most OF the fraternal insur-
ance lodges under the control of the
State.
The Insurance Department is sus-
picious of any combination engaged
in writing insurance that objects to
reasonable supervision" said the COM
missioner. "Such so-called companies
are running riot in Pennsylvania to-
day and the poor people must be pro-
tected. Only recently the department
investigated a case where the poorest
of workingmen had paid in $4,000
into a benefit company. Three Of
ficers took $4,000 in salaries and paid
SZoa In Dement'S. This Is but one OF
half a hundred cases"
The bill is similar to that in force
in New York and in more than thirty
other states. 1t was drawn by the
National Fraternal Conference and the
National Association of Insurance
Commissioners. Representatives of the
National Fraternity Council spoke for
the bill, as did the representative of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers.
Frederick 6. CASTOR, president of
the Grand Fraternity of Philadelphia,
opposed the bill on the ground that it
revoked charter rights ana removed
tax exemption. Some of the objec-
tions were agreed to by the insurance
department chief, but he insisted on
the right of supervision over the fl
nancial affairs of any lodge or frater-
nal benefit society which it should
choose to investigate.
