According to John Janis, chairman of Sentry Insurance Co. of Stevens Point, Wis., the international business of American property and casualty companies is growing substantially. Sentry has bought a major block of stock in Howdens, a British insurance house with $100 million net worth. It also does business in such remote places as Sydney, Beirut and Hong Kong. According to Joseph Weimert of American Insurance Foreign property and casualty insurance companies are building a huge international business in a field once dominated by the British. Even American life insurance companies have started to invade foreign markets again successfully. The life companies tended to stay out of foreign countries after experiencing huge losses in Russia, Central Europe and the Middle East because of the revolutions and political upheavals incident to World War I.

Common Market Low Pay Spurs Womens Lib NEW YORK ( ACCN) Womens Lib advocates find ready ground in the European Community, where a study has just found that women there at every professional level are less well-pai- d than men, according to Common Ground, a publication of KLM Airlines. This underpayment of women workers is despite the provision for equal pay far equal work which was agreed to in the Treaty of Rome1 through which the Common Market was established. Action to rectify the present inequalities regarding women has been speeded up in preparation for the enlargement of the Community by three new members which will take place January 3, 1973. According to Reuters, "with the joining of Britain, Ireland and Denmark, the EEC will become the worlds foremost commercial force and the anomaly of the woman workers inferiority will be all the more in premiums. There are several other large groupings of American insurance firms in the international market and in addition such firms as INA of Philadelphia, CNA of Chicago,. Chubb & Son of New York and, to a lesser degree, the Travelers and the Aetna operate on their own abroad. As in the case of the life companies, the big impetus for U.S. insurance compnaies to go international was to serve the interest of American business abroad. American firms operating around the world preferrkl to insure in dollars rather than local currency. They preferred American-typ- e contracts and often found some types of coverage they had been used to in the United States were not available abroad. From serving American companies abroad, the U.S. property companies soon began to sell local business firms and local citizens fire, marine, automobile and workmans compensation insurance. To (to all this, American companies must engage in admitted and operations abroad.
