Juvenile welfare associations and court authorities have been anxious to 'vigorously enforce this anticlgaret law. Therefore they have had an amendment framed to the act of 1913. This amendment was Introduced in the House yesterday by Representative Isadore Stern, at the request, of Presi dent Judge Charles I-. Brown, of the Municipal Court of Philadelphia. The act of 1!>13 provides n tine of not less than SIOO and not more than S3OO. The amendment reduces the tine to not less than $5 and not more than $25 for each offense and. in de fault of payment of the tin", provides that the violator can be imprisoned in WEDNESDAY EVENING, Baldwin Commission Finds That There Arfe Some Reckless Fire Insurance Companies I Combinations of insurance compan ies are declared in the report (lied with j the Legislature last night by the State jcommission to Investigate methods of i lire insurance companies, to be in "ac -1 cordance with a wise public policy, are | necessary to the solvency of the in ! surance companies and are beneficial |to the public." The commission was j named last year in accordance with ian act of 191 :i and consisted of Sena tor William E. Crow, Representatives I K. J. Baldwin and R. S. Frey, Joseph |S. Alexander and Frank McCann. It | held hearings throughout the State, inquiring into the practices of tiro in surance companies, especially in rat ing, and its report is voluminous re- J view of insurance in the State. i Among the conclusions adduced j from the testimony are that there are isome matters caused by reckless com panies which require legislative action. It is stated that there is no legal stand ard policy in the State and that uni formity and standardization of con tract are of great value to the insur ing public. It is stated that the fire marshal's department of the State government will be instrumental in | forcing a marked decrease in the burning ratio of the State and will j prove a benefit to the people at large. I The amendments proposed to the act creating the department are com | mended. : Commissions are declared to be the ) largest item of expense and in the : opinion of the commission "could be ! reduced so as to make a very sub -1 stantial saving to the companies und I yet not mean discouragement to the | legitimate agent or underwriter." State [rating would be a very expensive pro j position to undertake, says the report land State Insurance is declared im j practical. The commission concludes that {while the great majority of companies combinations and boards are not or | ganized against the public, there are some companies which do not adhere to their own rules and depart from the rates of their associations. If the pub lic was fully informed on fire insurance says the report in closing there would be less criticism. Acts to bring about changes in various features of insurance are sug gested. the county Jail one day for each dollar of the fine. The point of the amendment which | will make the dealers most cautious, however, and which will enable the guardians of the welfare of Juvenile population to bring quick and sum mary action against any violators is the provision that prosecution may be brought before any alderman, magis trate or justice of the peace. The Children's Aid Society, the So ciety for the Protection of Children from Cruelty, the Court Aid Society, the officials and probation officers of the Juvenile court are very much in j t.erested in Representative Stern's bill, j and, if it is amended, intend seeing | that vigilant watch and summary I action seals up the sources of supply from which youngsters secure cigarets j and cigaret papers. The act a mend - | ment was drawn up by Charles T. Walker, of Philadelphia, at the request of Judge Brown.

J. Buckman. chairman of the Senate appropriations commit tee, last night issued this statement: • As chairman of the Senate committee on appropriations, which is charged with the duty of visiting and inspect ing the various hospitals, insane asy lums and other charitable institutions seeking State aid, X have been besieg ed with applications from persons who are desirous of accompanying the committee's representatives at the ex pense of the State. If the impression prevails that these tours of inspection are pleasuro trips. I wish to correct it immediately. Their purpose is to save the State's money, not to spend it. In view of these facts, and also that a resolution has been introduced into the House recommending the discon tinuance of the Inspections as an un necessary expense, the appropriations committee of the Senate feels that an explanation is due from It to the pub lic. Since the committee on appropria tions are held responsible for the ap propriations they recommend. It Is of vital importance that they should pro coed with their eyes open in regard to these charitable outlays, which con stitute a very considerable portion of the State's disbursements. True, the Board of Charities is presumed to do the work of inspection itself, but the board's point of view is necessarily that of a pleader, rather than of the body which pays the bills. "I may state that the Board of Charities has already recommended much larger appropriations than will be available at this session. If we were to scale down all appropriation: pro rata, great Injustice would be done in many cases. "As illustrating the value of per sonal and unexpected visits from rep resentatives of the appropriations committee, one such Inspection In the past brought to light the fact that a hospital receiving State aid was sup porting charity patients who lived in New Jersey.. In another hospital, the committee found that the manage ment had put the nurses into beds in order to make it appear that the in stitution was worthy of generous help. I Governor Brumbaugh considers these I inspections of such importance that he has signified his desire to accompany the chairmen of the two appropria tions committees on a visit to some of the larger institutions which have been receiving the most liberal assist ance. I may say, however, with this single exception, as far as the Senate committer is concerned, only members of the committee, or, when necessary, employes of the committee, will be permitted to make these tours, or any of them at the expense of the State."
