Going into the increase of housing costs and renta due to fire insurance rates, the Lockwood Committee be- gan taking testimony at the City Hall to-day from authorities on fire in- surance, Before attacking the methods of rate-making by the New York Fire Insurance Exchango the committee went into the possibility of saving $50,000,000 in promtums by giving policyholders of the United States the benefit of “unrevealed Profits” now taken by the stock- hokiera, Ton leading companies were shown to have $10,000,000 annually of “unrevealed profits.” Alfred M. Best, publisher of Best's Insurance Reports for twenty-two years and a broker for four years before that, was called as “an in- troductory witness” to-day. He was qualified by Samuel Untermyer, counsel, as an expert on fire in- surance. Mr. Untermyer brought out the fact that Mr. Best had refused to accept a retainer as counsel to the committee, “preferring to maintain an entirely independent attitude in aiding the committee.” Explaining how the systems of fire Insurance operated, Mr. Best, sald there were four stock cofhpanies which are conducted for the profit of the stockholders. This is the largest class$ writing net premiums in 1920 of about $516,000,000. There are mutual companies, incorporated, whose profits or savings accrue to the subscribers, Then there are re- clprocal insurance exchanges, unin- corporated, whose members give power of attorney to the exchange manager and operate like the incor- porated mutual companies and the Lioyds, which divide profits among the underwriters, Of the premiums collected by the 255 stock companies in the United States, ten of them got $213,000,000 or nearly half. In addition to the $516,000,000 written by American companies, foreign companies wrote premiums of $127,000,000, Foreign companies control either directly or through ownership of American com- panies about 40 per cent. of the fire insurance business of this country.

They were “dared” to be married too, and accepted. ‘The second marriage was real, Mrs. Cobleigh said, and Mr. Berringer came to the Moore Street apartment to live.

In revenge, according to Mrs. Cobleigh, he brought the bigamy charge, although he knew all the time all about the alleged meaningless first “marriage.” Cobleigh brought the juvenile delin- quency charge to-day, Mrs. Cobleigh said, merely in order to offset the bigamy charge.
