Item 5.   Other Events.

          On May 15, 1995, the Registrant made available the
     restated financial statements filed as exhibit 99 to this
     report in order to reflect Allstate Insurance Group
     ("Allstate") as discontinued operations.  At a special meeting
     on March 31, 1995, the Registrant's shareholders approved the
     distribution of its interest in The Allstate Corporation,
     through which the business of Allstate is conducted, to the
     Registrant's common shareholders and the distribution was
     further considered by the Registrant's Board of Directors at
     their May 1995 meeting.  The distribution is expected to occur
     in the middle of 1995, subject to market conditions, a
     favorable tax ruling or opinion on the tax-free nature of the
     distribution and certain other conditions.
