Insurance Firms
Begin Formation
Of War Risk Clauses
Outstanding Policies
Will Not Be Affected
By Regulations
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-Maior
life insurance companies doing busi-
ness in the United States and Cam
ada have adopted or begun studies
on war risk regulations to cover the
issuance of future policies, survey
showed today.
Except for few remaining con-
tracts written in World War years
containing war risk clauses, an in
surance authority said, outstanding
policies are not affected by regula-
tions proposed or already adopted
Attracting wide attention in the
insurance field as an indication of
the trend were regulations issued
by the Mutual Life Insurance Co.
of New York, operating nationally
except in Texas.
New Clauses Inserted.
One clause says the company will
not insure non-citizens going abroad
or Citizens likely for any reason
to enter military or naval service
or to be subjected as civilian to
the ndZdfQS OF warfare.
Another clause says: TN general
citizens of countries other than
the United States, even though they
have received first papers, will, if
applications are accepted, receive
policies providing only for return of
premiums in case of death % with
in two years as result of war or
inSurrection, or 90 within five years
as result of military or naval
service in time of war-both outside
the United States"
A third calls for payment only of
premiums paid on policies issued to
persons travelling, or likely to travel
outside the United States, in event
of death caused by war.
War risk regulations, insurance
authorities said, are matter of
individual action by the various
underwriters and therefore subject
to differing conditions.
Studies Still Under Way.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co, said war risk
regulations had been adopted on
policies written in Canada, but
studies still were going on pre-
paratory to formulation of rules for
domestic contracts.
The New York Life Insurance Co,
a spokesman reported, also has been
conducting studies for regula atoms
covering policies in this country.
Meanwhile, informed sources said.
since the outbreak of war there has
been general attitude of caution
in issuing policies to persons likely

Alabama Production
Jumps Five Points

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 13 (P).
Steel production in Alabama
jumped 5 points today to 80 per
cent of capacity as Birmingham
mills accelerated output on orders
attributed to fears war business
would interrupt normal deliveries
on railroad steel.
Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad
Co., United States Steel subsidiary,
added two open hearth furnaces to
its production list after orders for
$4,000 tons of rails were booked
from three Southeastern carriers.
A further increase before the
start of the fourth quarter was

Steel Industry
Swamped by Orders
Since War Began
Business Is Assuming
'Fontostie Proportions
Trade Magazine Says
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Sept. 13.-Iron Age
reported today that orders for steel
since the European war began, were
assuming almost fantastic propor-
tons
Business has come in SO fast"
said the magazine, "as virtually to
swamp the sales and clerical forces
of steel companies.
Under the circumstances. an &C
curate estimate of total bookings of
the past 10 days is impossible, but
some products have gained from 35
to 200 per cent over their weekly
average of August.
Comparatively little of the heavy
inflow of tonnage has come from
abroad. Export business has ex-
panded, but not as greatly as domes-
tic buying, the chief hindrance being
the shipping situation.
The sharp gain in business has
been accompanied by quick rise
in steel ingot production to II per
cent, a gain of IL points over the
Labor Day holiday week, and ad-
vancing scrap prices, which have
raised the Iron Age scrap compos-
ite price to sl675. a gain of S1.13
to the highest level since early Oc-
tober. 1887.
Repeal of the Neutrality Act,
which is confidently expected in
we'll informed circles, undoubtedly
will add to industrial activity here
if the war is of long duration.
'Labors full cooperation in the
tense period which lies ahead for the
steel industry is assured by Philip
Murray, head of the Steel Workers
Organizing Committee, who states
to the Iron Age that whoever looks
for the American Steel Workers to
close the mills by irresponsible. un-
reasonable strikes now or in the fu-
ture hour of still greater need will
look in vain"
