EurIierCurb
IsUrged for
S&L Insurer
BY the Associated Press

Three Baltimore Coun ty
Democrats urged yesterday that
emergency legislation be enact
ed by the Maryland General
Assembly next month to fur
ther restrict operations of the
Security Financial Insurance
Corp.
Security is the only private
insurer of building and loan
association deposits operating
in the State.
The call for new curbs was
made by Francis N. Iglehart,
jr., and Norman w. Lauenstein,
candidates for the House of
Delegates, and Ted Venetoulis,
campaign director for the
County Democratic ticket.
The joint statement suggest
ed that the effective date of a
bill enacted last year be moved
up. The measure, due to take
effect June l, 1868, requires
Security to place not more than
10 per cent of its assets behind
any single risk.
The statement called atten-
ton to the recent action by
State authorities requiring as
Sociations insured by Security
to withdraw monies deposited
in SFIC'S guaranty trust fund,
I'm view of the fact that the
company not only appears to
be making no effort to comply
with the grace period so lib
orally afforded it by our law
Makers" the statement said
land the fact that it actually
seems to be losing assets, il
would appear essential tt
shorten the effective date oi
the law to June l, 1862"
The Democratic politician!
also contended that "sinct
many of our esteemed law.
makers are no longer Officers
and directors Of the insurance
company, which is controlled
by unknown interests, perhaps
it will not be as difficult in this
session of the legislature tC

Senators in BuiIdup
By CARL SELL
Star Staff Writer

4 Danny Murtaugh, who suf-
fered through several lean years
with the Pittsburgh Pirates, last
hight offered announcement to
the Senators in their fight to-
move up in the American
League.
Murtaugh, manager of the
1860 world champions, told the
Alexandria Grandstand Man
ayers to have patience with
leaders of the new club "be-
cause they are going about
building a winner in the right
way"
Cigar-smoking Danny gave a
pat on the back to Mickey
Vernon, the Senators manager
who is his neighbor in Chester,
Pal and to General Manager
Ed Doherty.
Mick and Ed are trying to
build strength up the middle"
Murtaugh pointed out. They
already have a great center
fielder in Jim Piersall and one
of the best defensive second
basemen in the business in
Chuck Cottier."
