Hyde Resignation Sought by Equitable Agents in New York
In New York on April 19, two hundred agents of the Equitable Life Insurance Society adopted a resolution urging Vice President J H Hyde to resign. A five member committee was appointed to deliver the demand, with meetings planned as Hyde attended a theater that evening. Hyde rejected the move, calling the resolution insulting and untrue, and stated he would not resign. A permanent organization and a National Association of Managers were formed, with committees to approach President Alexander and Vice President Tarbell. A broader push to mutualize the society and address internal issues continued as new committees were named and meetings scheduled.
