charged, and each time ho entered th-
service by rc-en!lstlng. It was during his
fourth enlistment, which started lust

at tho Omaha naval recruiting station

reducing rates on classes which were al
ready unprofitable, may bo cleared up as
tho result of recent conferences. Whon It
wns mada plain that tho state board
could fix tho rates, but could not force
tho companies to writo at those rates if
they belhvcd them to be Inadequate, It
was decided to make some concession
rather than deprive dwelling and other
property of Insuranco protection.
Tho Missouri Insuranco commission, ap
pointed by Governor Major several
months ago to Invcstlgnto tho flro Insur
ance situation In tho state and rocom
mond an up-to-date codu of Insurance
laws, has effected a permanent organ
ization. Edward K. Goltra of Ht. Louis
was made chairman and Charles C.
Revclle. state Insuranco superintendent,
secretary. Tho commission will hold a
conference with Governor Major, Janu
ary 19. and will then enter upon a scries
of public meetings In various parts of
tho state, Intonded to develop sentiment
on the subject and bring out tho wishes
of property owners as to legislation, re
duction of tho flro wasto being mado fore
most. Another case has been begun In tho
United States supremo court attacking In
vasion by tho state of tho field of Insur
ance, In the direct Issuance of policies
or tho making of compulsory tates. Tho
Mountain Timber company of Kalama,
Wash., begun suit last week attacking
the Industrial Insuranco law of Washing
ton. It contended that It denies to tho
state a republican form of government
and embodies an unreasonable taking of
firoperty without duo process of law. The
aw requires the company to pay Into the
state treasury 3V4 per cent of Its lumber
and railroad pay roll to creato a fund
for compensating Its Injured employes,
to bo administered by tho stato on rates
fixed by a commission. Similar laws havo
been enacted In Now York, Ohio, Michi
gan and California, but insurance with
tho state fund Is not compulsory In all
cases.
