Tho Governor will Insist on the enactment of laws which will give full protection to every policy holder In Pennsylvania, Oovernor Brumbaugh also will probably urge the Legislature to order n sweeping In vestigation of Insurance conditions In tho State. Tho proposed nction of Governor Brumbaugh, together with tho announce ment that Mayor Smith would order an Investigation of the policy Insurance scandal In Philadelphia, caused a double sensation In ofllclal circles today, especially when It became tynown that Seth H. U'hlte ley had been named by another Insurance man as the "mysterious philanthropist," who cleaned up approximately $100,000 by Insuring members of the Police Beneficiary Association In this city. Should an Investigation be conducted to ascertain the present business methods of Pennsylvania Insurance companies. Gover nor Brumbnugh believes that Charles Evans Hughes or somo Fennsylvanlan of the 1st ter'a typo .would make an excellent In quisitor.

The stand taken by State Insuance Commissioner J, Denny O'Nell to make n thorough Inquiry, no matter who la im plicated In the present State-wide Insur ance scandal, will be backed up by the Governor, 'I wish you would deny tho stories that politics figures In the Investigation now being conducted by Commissioner O'Nell," said Governor Brumbaugh, as he empha sized each word of his statement, "There Is no politics In the present In quiry, but. In Justice to Mr, Wood, I wish to say that he will be treated fairly and just.
