tain that he will give a good
account of himself.
In an interview with Mr..
Pryatel, which was held in
the State Capitol at Colum-
bus while he was still Super:
intendent of Insurance and
with no thought of a Cleve-
land judgeship in mind, he
gave us some of his ideas on
the regulation Of insurance in
the State.
He felt that each state
should do the job so well that
it would not be necessary for
the Federal Government to
step into the field of regula-
ton as has been threatened
recently. He also felt that the
business of annual licensing
should be eliminated.
Mr.. Pryatel had high
praise, too, for Tom Bala-
ban and his work both with
the Pennsylvania Depart
ment and in the National
Association of Insurance
Commissioners.
Mr.. Pryatels parents were
from Ribnica in old Slovenia.
Gus was born in Cleveland.
He is a bachelor and lives
with a sister on Neff Road in
Cleveland. He is a member of
the Slovene Mutual Benefit
Society Of Cleveland and is a
staunch fraternalist.
We salute the new Judge
and know that he will be a
credit to Cleveland and to his
race.

land Blue Cross about two
years ago, and this was at a
time when the Blue Cross felt
that the Insurance Depart.

Mr.. Pryatel, however,
made it clear that the De-

over Blue Cross or. any in

Blue Cross got all increase,
but it was not what they had
originally demanded, and they

Mr.. Pryatel was a member
of the Executive Committee

just last year he presided over
a Zone meeting of the NAIC
