INSURING AN
INCOME, NEW
FINANCE PLAN
Would Guarantee Principal
and INTEREST Payments,
Under Financier's Idea

Ncw York Feb. IA plan for
guaranteeing the principal and in
tcrcst of diversified investment
bonds, applicable either to individual
or corporate holdings, has been evolv-
III by leading surety companies. The
plan, in effect, is an extension OF the
guarantees now issued covering mort
cages and deferred payment autCmo-
bile notes, and will cover state, mum
icpal, railroad, industrial and public
utility bonds.
There is a growing demand on the
part of investors who have their
funds tied up in diversified securi-
ties, to obtain some kind Of Il guar
antee," said K. II. Towner, head OF
a rating bureau which worked out
the details of the premium charges
to be made for the service. THAT
guarantee, it was thought, could be
given preferably through surety
instrument"
While none Of the surety compan-
les, SO far as could be learned has
yet written" any of the new form
OF business, all Of the leading COM
panies have notified their agents to
seek such business, subject to the
approval Of the home offices.
An investor .des string to have the in
terest and principal of bonds he may
own guaranteed must submit com
plete list of his holdings, with the
exception Of United States liberty
bonds and Upted States Treasury
certificates. All classes Of bonds is
sued under the authority of the Fed
eral Farm Loan Act must be includ-
ed. These provisions, it was pointed
out were made to prevent an investor
submitting only his weak invest
ments, for guarantee.
The guaranteeing instruments will
be written for an annual premium OF
not less than half Of one percent
computed on the par value of all the
approved investment bonds belong ng
to the person or corporation seeking
the guarantee.
While the actual operation Of the
new form Of insurance or surety bond
has not yet been entirely worked out
surety companies express the belief
that advantage will be taken Of the
guarantee by individual and corpora
tions, that have their reserves in.

Of the replacement of bonds which

EXPECT STATE
AID FOR ROAD
Senator Larson Again Brings
King Georges Road Matter
Before Highway Board
CONFERENCE HERE TODAY
Of the Woodbridge Township
Committee, Engineer and
the Contractors
CONFERENCE HERE TODAY

Some state aid is. expected by
Senator Morgan F. Larson, Wood
bridge township engineer. in repair
ing King Georges Road which was
designated by the state as a detour
during most of the time the new
Amboy avenue pavement was being
laid in Perth Amboy. Senator Lar
son yesterday again brought this
matter before the State Highway
Commission and 1t was decided to
have the attorney general look into
the matter before any official action
Is taken by the state to assist in
financing the road repair work.
The state maintains that 1t Is not
responsible for all of the damage
done to the Woodbridge-Ford road
so it Is not likely that 1t will agree
to bear the full expense of repairs.
The Woodbridge Township Commit
tee and the engineer point out that
when the Amboy avenue contract
was awarded provision was made
that the old road and a suitable de-
tour in Perth Amboy should care for
the traffic. The Perth Amboy detour
was such a bad one, and traffic con-
gestion was such, however, that the
state stepped in and lecided to d.
vert all short traffic around that part
of Perth Amboy, designating the
Fords-Woodbridge road as the off,
cial detour, marking 1t as such and
placing state appointed officers to
direct traffic over 1t.
AS a. result of this heavy traffic
dtring the summer months of last
year the Fords-W Woodbridge road was
subjected to abnormal conditions and
it soon began to show the effects.
The Woodbridge Township Com
mittee at it's meeting Monday night
went over this matter at length and
decided to have a meeting this morn
ing in Senator Larson's Office with
the contractors who laid the road in
order to work out some plan for re-
pairs Owing to the winter weather
1t is not likely that permanent re-
pairs will be attempted at this time
but 1t is expected steps will be taken
to temporarily fix the road.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 19:-T1e
Rev. C. v. Sheatsley, pastor of Christ
Lutheran church of Bexley, suburb
whose wife's cremated body was
taken from heating furnace in the
family home late Monday. today
changed his testimony of yesterday
and told Prosecutor King that he be-
lieved his wife had taken her own
life. Yesterday he had refused to
accept a suicide verdict.

you to tell you that l now have a

self"
The minister's statement was
made voluntarily. He called Prose-
cutor John R. King on the telephone
just few hours before the funeral
was to be held and said he desired a
personal conference. The prosecu-
tor. with a stenographer, went to the
minister's study where he declared
he wished to change testimony given
yesterday.
An investigation yesterday termi-
mated without uncovering any in
formation pointing to a solution of
the case. The minister and his four
children. two sons and two daugh-
ters. were questioned at length, but
could throw no light on the tragedy.
Mr.. Sheatsley. unwilling to believe
his wife a suicide, could offer no mo-
tive for a murder theory. Testimony
of his children was the same.
Rev. Sheatsley has been pastor of
the church for nine years and also is
professor at Capitol University.
Neighbors testified yesterday that the
relations of the family had always
been amicable.
County Prosecutor King was en-
phatic in his belief that the woman
was the victim of foul play, while
Coroner Murphy contended she took
her life in fit of nervousness. The
coroner pointed to a missing bottle
of carbolic acid as lending credence
to his verdict that she was suicide.
All members of the family have
accounted for their movements on
the afternoon the tragedy occurred.
Officials announced that none was
held in suspicion.
