Co. Services at the Methodist church, Morning, "The Christian's WILL PRESENT REPORT TODAY. Senator Armstrong Off for- Albany With Insurance Document. New York, Feb. 22.

Senator Armstrong; with a completed report of the insurance investigating committee, left here, today, for Albany. He will submit the document for final signature to the members of the committee Upon his arrival and probably will present the report to the legislature, today. The report covers a printed pam phlet of 319 pages. The committee ecommends a law permitting the for mation of mutual life insurance corporations without capita) stock, provided at least GOO persons have sub scribed membership In the aggregate amount of at least (1,000,000 Insurance their lives ana have paid in one full annual premium. The company is to make the same deposits with the supt, of insuiance as Is required of stock insurance corporations.

The incorporation of- co-operative or assessment companies should not be permitted in the future, ana foreign companies of the state, should not be permttted enter. Concerning so-called mutual companies, the committee says: "Not- ithstanding their theoretical rights. the policy holders have had little or no voice in the matter. The most fertile state of evils in administration has been the irresponsibility of the officials Trie committee recommends that at least five months before the election, lists of policy holders should be filed with the superintendent of insurance and open to inspection at the rporatlon home office and general agencies tn each jurisdiction. Trustees directors should nominate the can didates, and any group of 100 members should be privileged to file independent nominations.

As to stock compa- the committee recommends mu- lualization. The committee "recommends tint no vestment be permitted in corpoiation stocks except In public stocks of municipal corporations. It says "No officer or director should be personally interested in any purchase, sale or loan corporation, except in ease of a loan on his policy. Contributions by insurance companies for political purposes should be strictly forbidden." Regarding lobbying the report says, "While it Is sufficiently evident that large sums have been disbursed for improper purposes, it is also clear that payments for confidential outlajs exempt from audit have furnished abunrant opportunities for mlsap- piopi iation." Senator Armstrong Speaks, Albany, Feb. 22.

The insur-lce report was presented in both houses of the legislature, today, accompanied by eight bills designed to carry into effect the committee's recommendations. The bills were referred to a committee of the whole. Senator Armstrong asked leave to submit a supplemental report, Monday night, containing proposed forms for standard insurance policies to be prescribed by law. Senator Armstrong told the newspapermen he hoped to have passed before April 15 a bill deferring "JC auiiuai cickuuiis panies from April 15 to Nov lo. This ouia, 11 is oeuevea.
