"When the new. federal Income tax law
shall have hern In force a year, the gov
ernment statlstclsns will bq able to tell
us. how many men and women have In
comes below the $3,000 and 14,000. mark,
said Bascom II. Roblson. president .o(
the Bankers' Reserve Life company,
Omaha.
In the 'Ms the Government collected
a lot of ' Information on tho 'subject In
getttng'ready to enforce the Income tax
law, which the supreme court later de
clared void. The figures thus gathered
were supplemented by thr census bureau,
and the United States Bureau of Labor
has compiled Important facts In regard
to averago Incomes and wages received
by various Classen of people.
'It was ascertained that S7 per cent of
American families had Incomes under
1,2) per annum, and that of Industrial
workers. 63 per cent were earning less
than ftOJ per year, and over !H) per cent
less than $1,014. It was found that only
00,000 families had Incomes exceeding
$3,000. while there were 11.000,000 families
having Incomes under $1,200, the average
being $3S0 per year.
"Since these figures were compiled,"
continued Mr. Itoblson, "there has been
a heavy Increase In the cost of living".
and today this cost consumes the Income
of nearly all tho families of the country.
Tho ordinary man. meeting the cost of
living and of educating his children, can
make but small margins of savings for
tho purposo of paying for the home, or
for laying something by for a rainy day.
In fact, under existing conditions, It Is
very difficult for tho average man to ac
cumulate savings enough to warrant him
In buying property.
I.tfe Policy the Tiling.
"Many men who have given the subject
careful study have reached the' conclu.
slon that the best method of saving, avail
able, to the average man, Is through the
medium of the life Insurance' policy,
there being no better way for the head
of a family to creato an estate from
tho proceeds of which his children may
ho educated. Upon his death tho policy
takes on the quality of a sight draft of
value Indicated by the face of the policy, I
which Immediately becomes an estate In!
the shape of gold dollars. Say the policy
Is for $4,000: It can be kept up at an out
lay of about the same as that required to
pay taxes and upkeep on real property
of similar value.
"The Industrious breadwinner earning
fairly good wages, residing In the west,'
with the assistance, of a frugal helpirleet,
can feed, clotho and educate his children
from the returns of his labor, and In
addition thereto, lie can maintain premium
payments on a lfe Insurance policy, which
In amount should cover $1,000 for each
child and a like amount for the fltC
This should be Increased commensurate
with Increase of earning capacity. In
the case of the well-to-do, tho amount
should be $3,000 for the education of each
child and a liko amount at least for the
widow. The more the better.
"Business men who have been success,
ful In commercial enterprises, small or
great, as a rule have made provision for
tho education of their children and the
conservation of their estates by carrying
life Insuranco In amounts sufficiently
large to encompass that laudable end."
Insurance Interstate
Commerce Asked
Nation's High Court
Much Interest attaches to the announce
ment of tho New York Commercial that
the question whether or not the Insurance
business constitutes Interstate commerco
Is put squarely up to the United States
supreme court In tho case of tho New
York Life Insurance company against
Deer Lodgo county, Montana. The brief,
which was written by Roscoe Pound of
Harvard university. Is considered a re
markably strong and clear exposition ot
the Insurance companies' aide ot the ar
gument for federal as opposed to state
supervision and taxation.
It contains some striking analogies be
tween the manner In which trad a and
commerce In the days before the adop
tion of the federal constitution were
taxed and harried and the manner In
which Insurance of all classes Is now
treated by the different states. It Is also
contended that tho reason for the adop
tion of the commerce clause In the con
stitution was to relieve trade and com-

Saturday evening an oyster pnrty was
given to all students of the university at
the home of Miss Lewis of South Omaha
A program consisting of music and games
afforded amusement for the party Tho
object of giving the party was to bring
all the students closer together and to

At a meeting of the Young Men's

recommended to send a delegate to the
Volunteer Mission meeting to he held at
Kansas City during the Christmas holt

been decided. At tho Kansas City meet

for mission work. The young Women's

that to which Interstate Insuranco Is sub

quoted to show that In ITS the thirteen
states each Imposed restrictions and
taxes upon goods and matter brought
Into them from other commonwealths.
Numerous authorities are quoted to
show that commerce, navigation, trade
and barter and even travel through the
various states was subject not only to
tnxatlon and duties, but that the laws
were contradictory and confusing.
Just how far a decision favorable to

of state supervision Is not now clear. It
Is thought, however, that It would ma
terially lessen the burden of local taxa
tion and the syBtem whereby companies
not only must pay franohlse' taxes, but

tho
Scranton. Pa., wore set at rest last week
when It was announced that a deal had.
been completed whereby the American
Surety company of New York reinsures
the outstanding fidelity and surety busi
ness. t
The company was organized In 1001 ns
the Title Guarantee, and Trust company
and changed lis title In 1906 and dropped
Its trust business. During the early part
of 1911 the company met with abnormal
losses. and on this account and because
of tho high expense ratio the surplus
was so reduced that the stockholders re
duced the capital from $1,000,000 to $MO,000
the difference being credited to surplus
account. In September of tho samo year
the stockholders decided to again Increase
the capital by voting an issue of $500,000
In new stock.
The company is licensed to transact
business in nil states and territories ex
cept Alaska, Alabama, Florida, Guam,
Hawaii. Louisiana. Philippines, Porto
nico. South Dakota and West, Virginia.
Its net premium Income last year ag
gregated $1,025,137. The total income was
$1,111,129. The net losses paid were
$.C3,S3. The underwriting expenses wero
$739,539 and the total expenes were $1,06$,

company had a net surplus over and

Workmen's Damage
Law in Ohio Threat
ened by'Deoision
A Jury In the United States district
court at Cleveland has Just awarded
$14,000 to a workman Injured a few
months' ago. jwhll In the service of an
employer who was a contributor to the
Ohio State Workmen's Compensation
fund. This Judgment Is regarded as show
ing that, In spite of the assertlops of
tlie Ohio politicians to tie contrary, con
tribution to the state fund furnishes very
lltllo protection to, the "(vnPl''r8'
Tho workman showed, that he and'
other tmployta had warned their foreman
that . derrick was'ln, unsafe condition,
and that the foreman had paid no atten
tion to the warnings and had ordered the
men to continue Its use without repairs.
The compensation under, the state fund
would havo been $300 In monthly Install
ments ot S0, and' the Judgment of the
employe In refusing U and exercising his
legal option of suing Under the charge
of wilful negligence Is expected to be
recognised quite, generally among em
ployta similarly situated.
The point on which the case turned
was the meaning of the term "wilful
let." The state authorities contended
that rtif Injur, to be the result ot a
wilful act on tho part ot an employer
must have grown out of Ills criminal
negllgenco and that, as such cases were
of exceedingly rare occurrence, an em
ployer would be protected almost Invar
lably by the compensation law.
The court, however, held that any
"reckless disregard for another's safety"
was the true Intent of the term. Inas
much as almost any accident can be
charged as the result of "reckless dis
regard of another's safety," the decision
Is thought to point the way to many per
Bonal Injury suits, against all of which the
emptoyer has no Insurance. The present
optional law in Ohio Is to be replaced
on January 1, 1914. by a compulsory state
fund law, which Is said to give the em
ployer even less protection than now.

Youthful Impostor
Works Householder
Tim police are seeking a beggar wKo
for the last week, has been going about
In Omaha with a 12-year-old boy of neat
appearance, whom ha uses to obtain'
money from unsuspecting householders.
According to the story In the hands ot
the police the man sends the bpy to bark
doors with a story that ho ran away from
his home In Coxad, Neb., and went to
Kansas City, lie starts In by begging
something to eat and Incidentally tells
his benefactor that he Intends to walk
back home and that he Is without funds.
Invariably he is given a dollar or two
for railroad fare, beside meals.
The police have information which
shows that scores of Omaha women have
handed out meals to the boy and given
him money enough to take htm to Corad
on the train.
Ottlmes the boy takes his food with
him and when he gets out ot his bene
factor's sight, hands over money and
food to the older man.
Tho boy s described as being, about 12
years old, bluo eyes, blonde hair and"
wearing thin clothing that shows signs .
of an attempt at being kept in repair.
This last Is believed to be a clever schema
to make the boy's story sound all the'
bettor. A good description of ths man Ii
not available.
