1t was also agreed that the life
insurance agent is engaged in an
essential occupation, and that his
services are needed more today
than ever before in carrying the
message of protection for the widow
and orphans.
Per Cent Tax Favored.
The congress went on record as
favoring a / per cent tax on all life
insurance premiums instead Of the
present system Of war taxation
which E. w. Randall, st. Paul, presi-
dent Of the Minnesota Mutual Life
Insurance company, declared could
not be figr%ed out and agreed upon
by any two men in existence"
The present system Of taxation on
life insurance companies, 1t was
pointed out by Mr.. Randall, nets the
government approximately four and
one-half millions yearly. The l per
cent tax on premiums, amounting to
more than 100000, would be
$40, 1000, 600, or more than twice as
much, without the present difficulty
in determining the amount Of tax.
Life insurance companies, without
exception, have agreed to pay the
larger tax if the present system Is
changed, and the matter is now be-
fore the ways and means committee
Of congress.

agent of the Aetna Life Insurance
company, was chairman of the forum.

number of the garments completed
for display at that time. The girls
are hindered somewhat at the present

leather now on hand. A great deal
is needed for the completion of a
Jacket, and as every one knows that
there is not much usable leather in

all that the club has to work with
now. An extra appeal Is again being
made to the Fargo residents, and
persons from out of the city, who are
desirous Of helping them. to send in
all the old leather that they have.
Any thing in leather can be utilized
for this purpose, but old table covers,
