Insurance Head
Warns of Inilation
Says Continued Government
Borrowing Threatens
Policy Holders.
PHILADELPHIA, PA.—M. A. Linton, president of the $300,000,000
Provident Mutual Life Insurance
company, warned policy holders of
the danger of inflation resulting
from the Roosevelt administration’s
program of expanding bank depos. .
its through federal borrowing.
His statément, printed in the company’s magazine, was similar to
many made by Col. Frank Knox,
Republican candidate for the vicepresidency, charging that New
Deal spending of two dollars for every one taken in threatens the savings of millions of Americans. It
follawed on the heels_of the President’s ‘‘non-political’’ conference of
insurance company heads in an attempt to offset apprehension
aroused by the Knox charges.
The belligerent Colonel’s latest
blast, made at Helena, Mont., was:
“T repeat that under the present
policies of this. administration no
life insurance policy is secure, no
savings account is safe, because
the present spending policy leads
straight to inflation. It is not the
insurance companies or the savings
banks that are unsound. They are
as safe as the Rock of Gibraltar. It
is the administration of the United
States government that is unsound.”’
Mr. Linton warned that insurance
policy holders have a precious interest in balancing the budget of
the United States.
“The essence of life insurance,’’
he said, ‘‘is a promise by the life
insurance companies to pay dollars
in the future when a given contingency shall occur. ~The policy
holder knows that the dollars of tne
future are going to be used to purchase the food, clothing, and shelter
that his dependents will need if he
is called away by death, or that he
and his wife will need after his
earning days are over.
“To maintain a sound currency a

nation must live within its income. . &
Emergencies may
borrowing necessary in times of depression. However, the longer the
borrowing is continued the graver
the danger that the situation will
get out of ios and lead to disastop?
A. A. Ballantine, former “undersecretary of the treasury, in a siaiement issued from Chicago, charged
the Roosevelt administration with
sacrificing the security of policy
holders and bank depositors upon
the political block.
“Mr. Roosevelt knows which side
his bread ‘is buttered on politically,’’ said Mr. Ballantine. ‘‘If it is
necessary to plunge this nation so
deeply into debt by reckless and
politically minded spending
printing press money is the only logical outcome, he will-do it unflinchingly—even if it makes a piece of
waste paper every life insurance
policy and savings bank book in the
United States.”’

SCOTTS BLUFF, Neb.—President
