SYDNEY,

A recent substantial increase in the value of Insurance policies held on the life of Gordon Robert McKay, 43, skin dealer, of Burwood, Sydney, was revealed recently. McKay was reported to have been burnt to death in a shack at Pilin, a seaside resort, 25 miles from Auckland, on February 12.
