The Balkans, led by a strong Turkey, were forming ' mutual-defens- e frontier against penetration.

Interest on foreign policy thus shifted to the house, where the G. O. P. expected to fight against loans to belligerents. Meanwhile the senate foreign relations committee kept postponing action on the proposed embargo against Japan. Congress watched with interest while Secretary of State Cordell Hull laid at Britains door the responsibility for a German threat to torpedo U. S. ships in the war zone. Reason: Britain has detained U. S. vessels and taken them to contraband ports in the war zone. Defense. Less than 24 hours after it had okayed a $966,772,878 navy supply bill (cut $111,700,000 under budget estimates), the house naval committee repented and approved a $655,000,000 fleet expansion program. The latter bill would only authorize new construction; actual funds must come from separate legislation. Primarily concerned about the big supply bill, the house expected to restore part of the cut. Agriculture. The house agriculture committee okayed a $350,000,000 bill to expand scope of the farm tenancy act, insuring mortgages of tenants who want to buy their own farms. Labor. Chairman J.

From 1929 to 1938, SEC found, 26 companies took in 42 billions. Of this, 10 billions was not disbursed but went into reserve, surplus and contingency funds. Still more interesting was the fact that SECs 26 subjects increased their assets by 63 per cent from 1929 to 1935, , yet life insurance in force went up only 10 per r cent. Next day John A. Stevenson, president of the Penn Mutual Life Insurance company, surprised TNEC and the nation by advocating a modernization of the mortality statistics, asserting that amounts collected for mortality have been too high in recent years. But, he added, it makes little difference in cost to the policyholder since excess income is returned in dividends. . How can you tell your wife wants money when she pouts like that? .
