New Code of Laws For the State of Indiana. RIGID RULE AGAINST REBATING Some ef the Laws Bald to Be Far In Advanoe of Anything ef the Kind In United States— Severe Penalties For Misleading Advertisements —■ 8pecial Contracts Prohibited. Copies o f Ind iana’s new code of life Insurance laws are being sent to the Insurance companies by the auditor of state. M r. Blllbeftner, w ith an lnclo snre explaining them and the steps the Insurance department w ill take to bring about their enforcem ent The auditor says that some of the laws are a ^distinct Innovation and fa r In ad vance o f anything of the kind In the United States. The state bus a sfrlugeut anti-rebate law for the first time, and It Is expect ed to put » s to p to the practices under which a number of young companies hure flourished. I t provides that a com pany or Its agents may be fined not less (ban >100 nor more than >500 for giving a rebate. An agent may be Im prisoned for th irty days for rebating, and n i>erson accepting a favor from the ageftt or the company may be fined from >100 to >500 and Imprisoned for thirty days. The ageut giving or of fering the rebate shall have his license canceled, and he may be disbarred from jdotng business In Indiana for one year. The state auditor may re voke the license of the company ex tending a rebate. An act known as the Stahl law pro vides severe penalties for an agent or company that misrepresents policies. I t is provkled th a t no company shall send out “fake advertisements or mis leading circulars” on penalty of hav ing Us state license revoked. An agent who misleads any one regarding the policy he Is selling shall be prohibited from selling Insurance In Ind iana fo r one year. For the protection o f'th e Insurance companies against unscrupulous agents the M cCarthy act was adopted. I t pro video that an agent who falls or re fuses to meet bis obligations w ith his company shall have his license re voked and shall not be permitted to do business Ip the state. The auditor of the state aays that he Will keep a blacklist of the “dead beat" agents at his office so that the companies can avoid them. W hat Is regarded by M r. Blllhelrner and the insurance men In fndlenapolls ns the most Im portant feature" of the new code Is an set Introduced by Sena tor W ill R Wood. It defines what shall go Into a policy and provides for state supervision of the state compa nies by the auditor. The companies shall deposit with the auditor at the end of the IJrst year mortgages or se curltles amounting to the full cash value of the policy a t that time. The companies w ill have sixty days I d wWch to make the deposits. For the purpose of ascertaining the solvency of any company doing busi ness In Indiana the auditor Is author toed to make an Investigation at any tlrne and to compel any company to put up funds he may regard as necea sary to estaNlsb a proper reserve. Under the Wood law special con tracts are prohibited. Several Indiana companies that are now establishing themselves have “ made good’’-by w rit ing special contracts. T he special con tract feature applies to foreign as well as to state companies. The law pro hibits the predating of'polldes so that policy holders can get tho lower rate. This provision Is expected to put an end to the practice of some of the companies of getting business by gtv- lng their customers a lower age rating. M r. PHIhelmer says the Wood law la fa r In advance o f any sim ilar measure In the United States. W hile It was draw n so that the state shall super vise the companies and protect the policy holders, the nudltor Insists that the law w ill not work a hardship on any company that Is doing a legitimate business. A new reserve loan law was enacted. I t provides that the companies shall deposit with the nudltor securities amounting to the full cash surrender value o f the policies It has w ritten, the amonnt o f the deposit to be Increased an the cash value of the policies In creases. ■> A new law was enacted for the In corporation and operation of casualty companies, providing e x p lic itly -w h a t kind of business they shall write. A casualty company must have a paid up capitalisation of >100.000. I t Is provided th a t Indiana life com panies may Issue polk lea against death by accident.—Indianapolis Cor. New York Post.

He Is said to be Interview ing the leaders of the Jews In Europe In the Interests of thia movement. The Rev. Dr. Schulman In discuss lng the plan said that he understood that one difficulty which would have to he overcome wae the necessity of providing an extensive Irrigation sys tem, which would cost a large sum. “There can be no doubt,” he said, “of the advantage of diverting some of the crowded. Jewtsh population of Europe, and there Is certainly enough territory for them In Mesopotamia. W hile the country would not appeal to the Jew as would Palestine, It has traditions of value to the race. The Babylonian captivity began In 53«, and the Jews enjoyed there for a time an honorable career. They were Independent and had a prince o f their own. “They aet up great schools of learn ing, and the Talmudic tradition grew up In these parts. -T h e y began to de cline In the eighth century, and I do not know I f there are any Jews left there now, but certainly there would be more to attract them to Mesopota mia sow than to British East Africa, which was proposed as the site of a Jewish colony a few years «go.
