Insurance Head ,
Marnsof Initiation
Says Continued Government
Borrowing Threatens
Policy Holders.

PHILADELPHIA, PAN. A. Lin
ton, presidcnt of the $500 600 900
Provident Mutual Life Insurance.
company, warned policy holders of
the danger Of initiation resulting
from the Roosevelt administration s
program OF expanding bank deposits
through federal borrowing.
His statement. printed in the COM
pany's magazine, was similar to
many made by Col. Frank Knox
Republican candidate for the vice
presidency, charging that New
Deal spendinG of two dollars for ev-
cry one taken in threatens the saw
ings of millions of Americans. 1t
followed on the heels of the Presi-
dents "non-polltical" conference of
insurance company heads in an at
tempt to offset apprehension
aroused by the Knox charges.
The belligercnt Coloncrs latest
blast, made al Helena, Mont. was:
II repeat that under the present
policies Of this administration no
life Insurance policy is secure. no
savings account is safe, because
the present spending policy leads
straight to initiation. 1t is not the
insurance companies or the savings
banks that are unSound. They are
as 5afe as the Rock of Gibraltar. It
4. is the administration of the United
States government that is unsound."
Mr.. Linton warned that insurance
policy holders have a precious in
'terest in balancing the budget of
the United States.
1.-THE essence of life insurance, -
he said, is a promise by the life
insurance companies to pay dollars
in the future when u given con-
tingency shall occur. The policy
holder knows that the dollars of the
future are going to be used to pur-
chase the food, clothing, and shelter
that his dependents will need if he
is called away by death, or that he
and his wife Will need after his
earning days are over.
"To maintain a sound currency a
nation must live within its income.
Emergencies may make extensive
borrowing necessary in times of dc.
preston. However, the longer the
borrowing is continued the graver
the danger that the situation will
get out Of hand and lead to disas
ter"
A. A. Ballantine, former under
secretary of the treasury, in a state
ment issued from Chicago, charge,

sacrificing the security of policy
holders and bank depositors upor
the political block.
"Mr. Roosevelt knows which side
his bread is buttered on political
ly," said Mr.. Ballantine. IF it is
necessary to plunge this nation Sc
deeply into debt by reckless and
politically minded spending that
printing press money is the only log
ical outcome, he will do it unilnch-
ingiy-cven if it makes Il piece OF
