CHICAGO, Dec 24.-Judge Blodgett, 10
the U. S. District Court this morning,
made decision of great i'm portance IN the
case of the petition OF +, ID Cooke,
assignee in bankruptcy of the Protection
Life Insurance Co., for an assessment
upon about Is 600 policy holders TO pay
some sixty death losses, amounting to over
1924, 600 which had never been assessed
by the company. The principal points
made BY Judge Blodgett were that the
company, under its charter, was author
lied to carry on lite Insurance business
upon tbe i0int stock or mutual plan, or
both, in Its discretion; that the plan
actually adopted by the company vas not
strictly either joint stock or mutual. but an
anonymous plan styled by the oompany
the mutual contribution plan; that the
mutual liability OF the members TO assess
ment results not from the charter or
general law. but If at all, from thFerms and
conditions OF the policies and applications;
that the contract, if it might be So called
of the policy holders was substantially
the same in the various form il
and was TO pay an assessment
to be made by the company upon the
death of each person insured in the COM
pany was merely an agent to make assess
ments. collect from policy holders ard
pay over TO benefciaries; that the con
tracts expressly contemplated and reserv-
ed the right of such policy holder to refuse
to pay any assess ments and TO forfeit his
policy, and that thus lapsing he absolutely
absented his liability to further assessment
that it was the right of each policy holder
to have the company promptly assess all
death losses, so that be might exercise his
option of lapsiDg, if assessments became
too heavy that the court could rot now as
sumo to make the assessments which the
company ought 70 have made, since to 60
so, would be inequitable ,apd would impose
upon the policy holders burden tor which
| they could now receive no equivalent, the
| company being dead; hat the moneys
collected on such assessment, II made,
would nosbe assets of the company per
pavmept of general creditors, bu. specI-
| Gc fund for the payment OF the SPECIFIC
death losses assessed; that the company
couId only be liable on these uuassessed
losses to the extent of it's guaranty, or tor
damages for failure to assess; that the
scheme of The c0mpsny was lIiusory, and
an experiment outside the beaten paths
of life insurance; and those benenclaries
| in whose behalf this assessment Is asked
| might we'll have anticipated the contln-
gency which has arisen.
This decision applies equally TO the toll
