ringleaders were Delegates w.
Dale Hess 3D., Harford),
James Latham 3D., Talbot
and myself.
The first phase was to con-
vince Tydings that he did not
have enough votes to pass the
bill in it's original form. That
was easy; he seemed to be
pretty well aware of it him
self.
Next came the slightly more
difficult job of convincing
Boone, Culver and Staten that
unless they went along with a
reasonable compromise, we
would ram the original bill
down their collective Threats.
This too was not difficult;
they were already weary of
the beating they were taking
in the newspapers.
Most important of all was
the ticklish job of finding a
compromise that would be
reasonable and face saving
without defeating the purpose
of the bill.
Competent authorities, in
Guiding the Insurance Com
missioner, told us that any
could would allow Security FL
nancial a grace period" after
the effective date of the Act
to straighten out its affairs.
Thus it was concluded that
the best compromise would be
to provide a two.year grace
period in the bill itself. Mean.
while, we had checked the Ian
guage of the bill to make sure
that Security Financial would
not be able to "lay off" its
risks by re-insuring with some
insurance company" in Tan
gier, or Panama, or Outer Mon

gested checking this point.)
Then Chairman Ned McNeel
3D., Bird Baltimore) of the
Banking and Insurance Com
mittee sat down with the prin-
cipals and secured their mutual
agreement to the compromise.
The bill passed second reading
last Friday in 80 seconds.
The only off-beat develop
ment was an absurd editorial
in the Washington Post, which
referred to the compromise as
an "emasculation" of the bill,
which is about as far from the
truth as anything could be.
The editorial writer's ought to
try checking out their facts"
with their own reporters in
Annapolis who could, and
would, have Strengthened them
out on this point.
Aside from this one inanity,
the Post has done a good job
of researching the murky
background of Security Finan-
cial and drumming up support
for the Tydings bill.
Next on the stage in the
House is the Case Commission
bill H.BB. PAD, which is a 49,

long overdue regulation of the

that every member of the

one year ago.
This will be a treatise about
building and loan associations
in particular and legislative
conflict of interest in general.
The former is not a new is
sue at Annapolis, and the latter
is as old as the hills. Both
have been in full flower dur
ing the current session.
This column is being written,
as usual, during the weekend
before publication, and much
will have happened by the
time you read it.
Barring some unforeseen
circumstances, the Tydings
bill will have passed the
House of Delegates and gone
to the Senate, where 1t is not
expected to run into serious
trouble.
The Tydings bill is aimed at
controlling firms that insure
the accounts of building and
loan associations and at bring.
ing the risks that they cover
into some reasonable relation
to the assets of the insurer it.

The chief target, as every
one knows, is the Security FL
nancial Insurance Corporation,
which is operated locally by a
group of Baltimore County
politicians, including three
prominent members of the
House of Delegates. 1t is the
only such company in Mary

are reported to have applied
for licenses. They are being

Thus the opposition to the
Tydings bill has been compos-

feat, (b) Delegates who felt
that they might be the victims
of reprisals if they voted for
the bill, and (c) soft-hearted
colleague who just could not
bring themselves to do finan-
cial harm to their old friends
in Security Financial.
1t was apparent for several
weeks that Joe Tydings did
not have the votes to put his
bill across.
Then a little group of men
who had no personal interest

Tydings bill should pass went
to work on the problem. The
