Atlanta, Ga., June XO-In the opin
ion of Comptroller General W. A.
Wright there are some Insurance com
panies doing business In tho state
who are running mighty close .to a
penalty of »500 for the Irttle oversight
of paying their special tax.
There are more than 300 insurance
companies doing business In tbe state.
The law requires that they make pay
ment to the comptroller of the special
tax levied against them by or before
July 1st. To date General Wright has
received payment from less than sixty,
of them. The total to be collected
from these companies runs In round
figures $600,000. Only about $100,000

hoard are offered. Theae will be, for makes It obligatory on the comptroller
