themselves with this special part-pay-
ment plan.
No one should neglect protection for
themselves and their families. The
newspapers are filled with hundreds
of accounts of sudden tragedies and
misfortunes. Floods, fires, epidemics
and violent storms take a startling toll
of human life and limb. Trains and
automobiles are growing more dam
gerouS every day. Automobile acci-
dents, particularly, are growing more
frequent every month. 1t is unwise
to gamble with fate, when the next
moment may bring disaster.
The protection afforded you by this
straightforward policy is backed by
the huge resources Of the North Amer
lean Accident Insurance Co., the
largest and Oldest exclusive Health and
Accident Insurance Company in
America. The company has paid out
over $21,000,00000 in claims-it is
under the direct supervision of 46
State Insurance Departments.
Men and women who are interested

CHICAGO. October 12.-Hopes for
an immediate armistice in the 13-day-
old milk strike vanished today.
The strikers came forward with a
proposal for a 80 to 60 day truce.
Dealers spurned the proffer Then
both sides dug in to await develop
ments.
A committee representing Northern
Illinois and Southern Wisconsin
farmers who are withholding milk
from the Chicago market laid their
case before DR.. Herman Bundesen,
president of the board of health.
S1.75 Under Truce.
The members asserted they would
suspend their embargo for one or
two months if guaranteed SITS a
hundredweight for their product and
all strikers were reinStated on their
markets. They also declared their
original objective-a price of $3.50
would remain unchanged.
But the Associated Milk Dealers,
Inc. combination of lis Chicago
dairies, declined to enter negotiations
until the producers determined which
selling agency they preferred. Paul
Potter, secretary Of the organization,
said:
I'VE prefer to wait until sentiment
among the dairy farmers has crystal
lized and they know whether they
want to stay with the Pure Milk As
sociation, recognize the new rival
Union Producers, sell direct to the
dealers or market through brokers" :"
$1,000 in p. NJ. A.
The Pure Milk Association is the
marketing agency for $4,000 farmers.
It opposed the strike and declined to
deal with the strikers. Some Of its
members, however, joined the strikers,
who set up the Producers Union in
opposition to P. M. A.
DR.. Bundesen, powerful figure in
determining marketing policies, said
he could not arbitrate the litigation
He estimated SIS per cent of the nor
nal milk supply was reaching Chicago.
Potter claimed that was sufficient for
immediate needs.
