tension of time. This qualification was
made at the suggestion of Jesse 5.
Phillips, Superintendent CT Insurance.
Hughes Favored Extension
| When Charles Il. Hughes, chief
counsel to the Armstrong Insurance.
committee, became Governor of the
state, he approved of the suggestion
! that five years time be given the in
surance companies for selling out the
prescribed stock holdings.
At the end of this period. in 1911,
State Superintendent Hotchfiss recon-
mended to the Legislature another ex-
tension of five years. This extension
expired December 81, 1916. The war
was then in progress and Mr.. Phillips
suggested that the time be advanced
to 1921.
In his report of February, 1921, Mr..
Phillips recommended that in view of
market conditions, and the fact that
insurance companies were no longer
buying stocks, Section 100 should
| either be extended once more, or re-
pealed. Another extension amendment
was passed, with authority to the Su-
perintendent of Insurance to decide
upon the matter after 1926.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. reabody IS
sued the following statement:
1.-THE publications in the morning
newspapers as to the alleged losses of
the Mutual Life are in most essential
respect false and misleading. This
is probably due to the fact that the
insinuations contained in the questions
asked by counsel for the committee
were calculated and intended to give a
false and misleading impression.
"The supposed losses of the Mutual
Life are the losses due to the natural
shrinkage in market values resulting
from the late war and other causes.
On the other hand the profits made by
the Mutual Life on the stocks since
1906 arc many million dollars more
