Isn't it because the company you're insured with accepts all classes of risks? .... You deserve a belter fire insurance, a lower cost policy, which gives you full benefit of the safety of your building. Upon this basic belief the General Insurance Company of America has founded its principle of insuring gooe risks only! Good risks suffer fewer losses. That's why GENERAL of AMERICA can cut down your insurance costs. GENERAL participating policies have never paid less than 20 dividends to their holders. GENERAL SESSION KANSAH CITY, May Guided by leaders who measure their service by decades, represen tatives of I 5.000,000 persons affili ated with the Methodist Episcopal church today devoted themselves to perfection of their quadrennial general conference at the first of a month of dally sessions here. With 870 delegates from 37 countries present, Mishop Joseph F. It. Try, of rhlladelphia, for the third time was accorded the honor of presiding at the In It iul session of a general conference. Reviewing the work before the conference, liishop Herry forecast the treatment of world problems and administrative issues with the church, which would place the present assembly un, record as be ing "constructive and conservative." "Old you cash all of them?" ! "I do not think so." 1 Were there any coupons on the bonds you delivered to your coin-' patty the other day?" "Yes sir. Those due in the fu ture, i ' My recollection is that the books ' of the Hyva corporation did not , show any 'A per cent bonds," he: said. 1 Well, they purchased boms eight million dollars of them, so there should have been a record." j Sinclair said he personally de- I llvered the 2t0.000 in bonds to j Hays for use In extinguishing tho republlean party debt in l'JliS. j 1 1-; udded that he got them ' from a vault In his house. j It developed that Sinclair put' all of tho Ulackmcr bonds In this vault. I "I wish you would tellUs about the transaction with Mr. llays, Sc nn t or Vn lsh sai d . "To tho best of my recollec tion. Colonel Hays camo to mo and united for lL'ttO.000. I don't recall whether he said tho na tional committee, but anyhow for the purpose of wiping out tho re publican debt. He said ho would like it as a loan and would col lect tho money and return It to me. ' "Was thero any more to tho transaction '!" "Yes, some time afterwards. Mr. llays returned tho securities, to me. I forget Just the amount, but I think It was all except ! 75 000. 1 nhlnk he told me that IS5.000 of the securities were his( own. La t er , I re m e m he r, I gave j back to Mr. llays or somebody for Mr. Hays the $85,000 so that; my total contribution was $100,-! 000. if my figures are correct." j "You aro a republican In poli tics?" j "Just a moment senator; I have been a republican, but I don't know now what politics I havo." , "What was the inducement to give that amount?" "Thero was no Inducement." "Hut Mr. llays told us that no one el.o gave anything approxi mating what you did. M r. An drew Melton, reputed to bo the third richest man fn tho world, gave only one-third of the amount, you did," "I can only say that Mr. Mcl- Ion was more sensible than 1 was," "Htill we don't get at tho rea son for you being ho liberal," Senator Walsh observed. "There was no reason. I may have been very foolish; I think I was." "Old you give any securities to Mr. Hays at the time he gave yuu the $85,000?" "I don't think so. I think he had sonio securities-of mine, wo had been friends a long time." "Tell us about those." . "You want mo to tell you about M r. 1 lays' personal transactions V" "I want you to tell about any transactions you had with Mr. Hays." "1 think Mr. Hays had lost some money In the stock market. I think it was $100,000 and I loaned him the amount. I think he sent them to his broker to be used as margin.
