The re port of lh Armstrong special In aaraaee tnveellgallng committee preeented la both bouse of Uie Icg Ulatara today. It u accompanied by eight bills designed to carry Into fact la detail tba recommendation of tba committee. la a atatement made to newspaper . aaen before the presentation of tbo report Benator Armstrong aald ho hoped to bare pasaed before April II the bill which will defer the an nual elections In the mutual com pa -alee from April 15 to November 16. This, It la believed, probably would nullify all proilea obtained up to thli time by Thomas W. Lawaon and me poUcyholdera committee of state " gwrernora and othofa, as well " as tboae which tba management of the tommies, themselves have been gathering through tholr agents. After recKIng the resolution author lalng the work and the plan adopted for the Investigation by the committee each Individual company Is passed In , review. ' There are fifteen companies organised under, the laws of New York Issuing- level premium policies and In a Single Instance only the committee departed from the policy of limiting Its Investigation to companies organised under the laws of New York. This company was the Prudential Life In aurance Company of New Jersey. The matters demanding the consid eration of the legislature for the pur pose ot remedying existing evils and of establishing more securely the bus iness of life Insurance In this atate are grouped under the following head: (I) Organisation of life Insurance corporations. (SO Control, or the right of pollcy holdera In the elcctlonot -directors. (J)i Retirement of stock. ' (4) Investment Including syndicate participations. Vif 1 6 Imitation of new business. , () political contributions. ' (7) Lobbying. ! (8) Limitation of expenses. (9) Valuation of policies. ' (10) Rebates, (II) Surrender valuea. (12) Ascertainment and distribution of aurplua.;; .. (13) Remedies of policyholders, or right to resort to the courts. (14) Forms of policies. (16) Publicity, and state supervision. (16) Penaltles-v "; .. 'The committee recommends that ar ticles 11 of the Insurance law be recom- mended aa to permit the formation thereunder, of .i mutual corporations without capital stock to transact the business ot Ufa Insurance and for such .. other purposes aa are authorized to be " connected therewith In the case of stock corporations; provided at least (five : hundred persona have subscribed to bc ; come members therein In the aggregate amount of at least $1,UU0,000 to be ln .. sured upon their Uvea and shall have each paid in one full annual premium In cash upon the insurance subscribe tor, and provided further, that it shall make the same deposits with the su perintendent of insurance that are re quired of . stock corporations formed s for slmtJar purposes. Section 100 permitting the incorpora tion of companies upon the co-operative , or . assessment plan, should be amended so aa not to permit such com , panics of this sort riot already traas actlng buslnesa in thla atate should not be permitted to enter the state. . . . Concerning the so-called mutual com- panics, the committee saya: v , "Notwithstanding .

As to stock companies, the commit tee recommend naturalization. Amendments Proposed. On the subject ot the investments of lite companies, the committee after de claring against "syndicates," recom mends that the law be amended so as to provide. (1) That no Investment In the stock of any corporation shall be permitted, except in public stocks of municipal corporations. t (2) That investments in bonds se cured to the. extent of more than one third of the value of the entire secur ity therefore by the hypothoration of corporate stocks shall be prohibited. (S) That no loans shall be made upon stocks and bonds which are not the subject ? of purchase under the above provision ; ; (4) That every company now own ing stocks or bonds of the prohibited classes shall be' required, to dispose ot the ame within' Ave years' from De cember 31, 190,-and. each -year prior thereto shall make a reduction of the amount of such Investments to an ex tont approved by the superintendent of Insurance.';. frfe'v !''; "' (5) The statute should , also forbid all syndicate participations, transac tions for purchase and aaie on joint account, and the maktng'of any agree: tnent providing that the company shall withhold ;from sale;! for any ; time,; or subject to the discretion ot others, any securities which it may own or acquire. - (6) : It also should be provided that no officer , or director should : be pe cunlarily interested either as principal, co-principal, agent : or beneficiary .

Knoruious sums have been expended In a surreptitious mannc Irregular accounts have been kepi to irncoal tha payments for which prop er' vouchors have not been required. Thla course ot conduct has created a widespread conviction that large por ticos ot thla money have been dis honestly used. Andrew C. Klelde, who represented both tha Mutual and tbo Equitable In legislative matter i and was In control of tha supply d- partment of the former company, re mained beyond the jurisdiction dur lrr tbe aessions of the committee. V Tho general aollcltor of the Mu tual, to whom the chairman of the committee on expenditures entrusted large sums, died just before the be ginning of the investigation, and ap parently left no account as to how the money had been spent. Hamilton Got a Million. Andrew Hamilton, who, within ten years, , received upwards of Jl.000,000 from the Now York l!fo on the warrant of Its president In connection with it-, bureau of legislation and taxation, has remained abroad and has failed, to ren der any proper account showing the disposition of the money. Tho officers of tho company say that they have no knowledge of the uses to which H was put. Tho officers of the Equitable, from whom light mlsht have been ex pected on the disbursements of their company, either have remained out ot the jurisdiction or have been disabled by -Illness. On account of the absence of the necessary witnesses and th 3 lack of proper vouchers, tho committee has been unable to trace the moneva said to have been disbursed in connection with legislation. But while It Is suf ficiently evident that large sums have been disbursed for improper purposes. It Is also clear that payments for con fidential outlays exempt from audit have furnished abundant opportunities or misappropriations. They suggest the necessity of requiring a strict account Ing from those who are responsible for the payments as well as from those who are responsible for tho payments as well as from the agents who have recolved the moneys. . " Menaced by Bad Laws. It has been insisted that the insur ance companies have been ao continu ously menaced by tho Introduction of Improper and ill advisca legislative measures In many states that thoy have been compelled to maintain a constant watchfulness and to resort to sscret means to defeat them. An Insurance corporation,: however., holds a position of peculiar advantages In opposing any legislative measure which really an tagonises the Interests of policyholders. A very largo proportion of tha Votors of the slate hold policies of life insur ance. : it is easy' for tho company to apprise them 0 hostile legislative meas ures,' and in addition a department ot the statd government exists; for their protection, ' whoce recommendations have rarely tailed to receive , proper consideration In 7the legislature. It la. no difficult matter to' direct pubVio attention to an objectionable-bill at fectlng . life insurance corporations, or to have opposing argument, and crltl cism effectively presented. t Again, if, In, spite of argument fairly and; pub licly .. presented the; legislature Insist i upon passlna -a law inimical- to ths true Interests of thd companies It Is hot the . off tears, but the1 policyholders who must bear the toss, and the con sequences which can readily be points ed ' out are almost certain to , bring about an early repeal of the obnox lotis legislation, The employment ot . ?.
