This statement is based on facts disclosed in a survey being. prepar- ed for the 22nd annual convention of the Association of Life Insur- ance presidents here December 13 and 14, says George T, Wight, sec- retary and manager, "This means, says Mr, Wight, that whereas 79 years, up to the end of 1922, were required to reach 50 billions, this total will have been doubled in only seven years additional, 1922 to 1929, "Fifteen years ago," he recalls, emphasizing the general economic significance of the increase, * when American life insurance was 70 years old, this fund of legal re- serve life insurance protection amounted to 20 1-2 billion dollars.

It is now claimed that no matter who is elected to next year's town counecil,! the result will be practically the same. While the Hydro side has its own official slate, other men seek- ing election to the council are not listed as anti-Hydro. Most of them, it 1s said, including Campbell Grant, candidate for reeve, would support a move to ask Hydro for must be made before an enabling by-law is submitted to the people to bring Hydro into the town. It is sald that estimates will be se- cured no matter who carries the day Monday. Public Meetings Hydro candidates have called two public meetings for Friday and Saturday, The others so far have not arranged public gatherings. Neither members of the Ontario Hydro Commission or officials of the Foshay Company controlling the presemt private power plant, are taking part in the campaign, It is. believed Chief Engineer F. A. Gaby or some other engineer will present the technical side of the Hydro's case Friday, but there will be no interference from Toronto in Walkerton's civic contest, it is stated. Want Estimates Public opinion here is said 0 favor securing estimates from Hydro. Until prices are quoted it is difficult for citizens to form opinions on the merits of public and private power ownership. Last year's council refused to invite estimates, but several of the mem- bers are sald to have changed their stand.

Testifying at the Federal hear- ing into the disaster, Keane re- peated testimony he gave last week at the Inspection Service investi- gation that although he said in his official report that he had lowered the Vestria' life-boats, he had not actually done so. © "That being one of the require- ments," said United States At- torney Tuttle, who ia conducting the Federal inquiry, "unless it was | done clearance papers should not be issued, should they?" "No," the inspector acknowl- edged, Boat Not Lowered Tuttle produced Keane's of- ficial report of his inspection, a little red book, and read from it a printed question as to whether the lifeboats had been lowered. Op- posite this question Keane had written "yes." Keane repeated his earlier testl- mony that he had not lowered the boats because at the time of the ---- hI Y - lah ATE] A -- -- "wh FX in N\ Raat = HHT h: inspection the pier was on one side of the Vestris and cargo lighters on the other.
