The budget director further report

London, April 18.—(By Mail)
It is an open secret that the publishers
of one or two of the London penny
morning newspapers are sorry that
they ever engaged in the fierce com
petition which they have been waging
for some weeks to gain circulation by
giving subscribers free insurance for
a variety of accidents, ills and ail
ments. s -
Having takon it up and boomed
themselveB unsparingly us great pub
lic benefactors, the papers do not sec
their way to drop it without great loss
of prestige and circulation.
One paper of a large circulation
states that since the first of the year
it has paid claims amounting to £16,-
000 under its free accident insurance
scheme. Another credits itself with
paying over 000 claims and £8,000
for free insurance in the same period.
This campaign has been watched
with intense interest. Some of the
papers have offered to obtain readers
odd and unusual lines of insurance bo
ns to attract attention as the firset in
that particular field.
One paper started a boom in its
free insurance scheme by announcing
that it was the one and only paper
that paid compensation for lost,
strayed, stolen or damaged laundry.
Another capped this by advertising
itself as the only paper that paid com
pensation for accidents occurring
either in his own garden or tnat ot
somebody else.
