INSURANCE BILL
PASSED IN HOUSE
Measure Regulating Life and
Fire Risk Business Is Given
Vote of 142 to 0.
The Gower bill to regulate the busi
ness of life and fire insurance in this
stale passed the house of representa
tives today by a vote of 142 to «.
This bid wmeh was prepared by a
spec cal committee from the legislature
of which Mr. Gower is chairman* cre
ates a department of insurance* with
tlie comptroller general at its head, and
undertakes to regulate in detail the en
tire business of insurance in Georgia.
It prohibit- discrimin ttion in tlie bus
iness of insurance, provides for the gen
eral and specific Supervision of the bus
iness by the state, regulates the sale of
stock and the commissions paid there
on. and requires fidelity and bonding
companies to make necessary deposits.
Mt. Adams, of Hall, undertook unsuc
cessfully in the committee to attach to
tlie bill the so-called Mann amendment,
recently rejected by the senate judicial y
committee This amendment proposed
to require all companies doing busi
ness in Georgia to invest 35 per cent
of their Georgia premium incomes in
Georgia sec urities.
Tlie bill as passed Is favored by a
large majority of the insurance men of
Georgia, and likely will greatly simpli
fy the matter of doing business for
the legitimate companies, while it will
make practically impossible "wildcat"
or illegitimate companies.
