Lawyers Talk of Insurance Some Heated Discussion
Portland August 27 The meeting of the Maine Bar Association featured a detailed discussion of insurance law. The Insurance Report by W Breckinridge of Omaha urged restrictions on foreign and domestic companies and changes to valued policy laws. An Equitable director from Maine opposed the idea of apportioning deferred dividends as a prerequisite to doing business outside home states. The session also covered jurisprudence reform and legal education while European delegates arrived for the International Law Association convention. A later item reports a Pennsylvania crackdown on the Black Hand and a resignation at the Madison County dispensary in Huntsville.
