things, its reputation, locally and
nationally. He must ascertain 10
reasonable degree, the service
record Of a company to its policy
holders in his community. He
should find out from his friends,
neighbors and business associates
the degree of regard held by the
firms local representatives Last
but not least, he should determine
after presenting his particular
case 10 the firms agents. whether
the agent and his firm have rea-
sonable solutions for his insurance
needs or problems.
On the business side, one can
always obtain from the firms
home office a copy of the latest
annual report to policyholders
which gives a good picture of the
activities of management, its OBJ
jectives, problems and it's accom-
plishments.

ton he must have to safeguard
his investment.
One should choose his insur-
ance agent the same way he
chooses his doctor, he must be
satisfied that his skiIls and com
petence are sufficient to care for
his needs. The customer and his
agent must necessarily under
stand each other, they must be a
team working together to insure
that the clients needs are met.

A special Senate subcommittee
met yesterday to lay the ground
work for the investigation of the
foreign aid program ordered by
the Senate before it adjourned.
Chairman Green, Democrat of
Rhode Island, said it would in

as the extent to which Russia's

Of the inquiry would involve a

The group which met yester-
day is a six-man executive COM

mittee. which was given 100000

Senator Green said it was de-
cided to begin by inviting all
Senators to submit their views
on the future course which for
eign aid should take.
The committee may authorize
on-the-spot surveys in Europe,
Asia and other areas: Senator
Green said, to determine:
What the basic policy Of the
United States should be in each
area: what is needed to carry
out that policy. and the extent
to which existing programs are
meeting requirements.

committee will concentrate on

The subcommittee report
called for far-reaching action by
Congress after speaking Of a
maze of methods for keeping
government data secret. Some of
these practices were authorized
by Congress itself, others were
adopted by Federal agencies on
their own initiative, some pur-
suant to Presidential order.
Congress created all federal
agencies, it said. and since courts
have refused to recognize" any
constitutional power inherent
in an agency to keep information
secret lit is now incumbent upon
Congress to bring order out Of
chaos"
Congress should establish uni.
form rules on information prac!
tices." it said. These rules
should require full disclosure Of
information. except for specific
exceptions defined by statute.
The withholding should be sub
lject to judicial review and the
burden of proof should be on the
official who withholds informa-
tion."

Publication of this multi-vol-

1942-49 was demanded three

The department published to.
