Hearing Ordered On Insurance Deal In Missouri
A Tuesday hearing will address the proposed sale of a controlling interest in Executive Security Life Insurance Co of Springfield to Roosevelt National Investment Co, a Springfield holding company.

Some shareholders complained Roosevelt National offered to buy control from officers rather than from all stockholders. Last year an examination criticized high salaries and expenses at Executive Security, including country club memberships.
