LOWER MAXIMUM POLICIES
Life Insurance Concerns Not
Seeking Sammies' Business.
Radical Changes Recently In Amount ~
Individual Risk Taken-No Uni-
forinity Yet in Extra Fees
Charged Military Abroad.

Several OF tho strongest life Insurance
companies having agencies in the city
are making no effort to write nav busi-
ness among enlisted men or men subject
to the draft, and at least three Of the
leading concerns recently have cut the
maximum amount of insurance allowed
to individual policy holders In the service
or likely to be.
The Prudential Life Insurance company.
for instance, which for years has taken
individual risks up to $10o, 000 lowered the
maximum to $4,000 and lately cut It to
$4,000 for all men of 81 to 81 years Of age.
The Metropolitan Life also has decreased
its maximum. to 5000, generally speaking.
One agent Of an important New York
company said 1t was making no effort to
write new business among members OF
the new National army, and did not con-
slider It was wise to do so. The agency has
received no applications for insurance
from men in the service.
Some companies like the United States
Insurance company are taking much tho
same position. 1t Is not trying to write
such new policies. but is not refusing the
business. This concern lowered its maxi.
mum from $4,000 to 5000 for men in ac-
tual army or navy service.
WAITING FOR GOVERNMENT?
~ iedulHB agent III Town SAID several
companies were waiting to see what the
government intended to do In the matter
OF insurng troops, but another agent
insisted that the likelihood Of such action
was over now.
Some concerns changed their maximum
at the time when an extra fee was tackled
on to premiums of soldiers who went
abroad and have done nothing since. Tho
Metropolitan. though IL has lowered ita
maximum, has established no hard and
fast rule. but considers each individual
case on it's merits.
EXTRA FEES UNCHANGED.
Generally speaking, the extra fees Of
from $3.50 to 800 a thousand of insurance
which most of the life insurance compan-
les established last spring or early this
summer have not been altered. and tho
concerns are as far as they ever were
from reaching a uniform additional
amount or percentage. So far as known
no company is making a smaller charge
chan $3.50 and few II any grvutor one
