Wells, actuary of the Con- nocticut Mutual Life Insurance com- pany, testified that no proxies were used 'at elections. Herbert H. White, secretary of the same company, gave the salaries of officers' as follows : President, $12,500; acting vice-presi- dent, 81,200; secretary, $7,500, and treasurer, $5,000. Is there any justification for these high stipends ? What is it that war- rants clerks at small salaries signing notes for millions, and securities ap- pearing. as sold to them when they were put up as collateral for borrowed nioney ? What is it that brought about. the quarelling among the of- ficers of companies, followed by glimpses into transactions of the most alarming kind ? Graft, graft, and always' graft. . The investigation which is now go ing on in New York will destroy the confidence of many people in life in- surance,' or rather in the manner in which it is conducted. President Turner, of the Security Mutual Life, of Binghampton, N.Y., believes that there has to be a sweeping reduction in expanses, not because 'of' exposures. or mismanagement, but because the interests of company and policy-hold- ers make it necessary. Moreover, and of graver significance, there has to be a change in behalf of the credit of men in office and trust. "The astonishing thing to me," said one of the New York legislative com- niittee, "is the fect that these conser vative financiers, the officers of great insurance companies, no idea wrong."
