No measure now before our Legislature.

importance to home interests as that (which
proposes to protect home capital by taxing
all foreign capital that seeks investment
here in the shape of loans. We have
plenty of home capital for all practical
purposes but it is crowded out of market
by the cheap foreign capital that finds q
better market here than it can at home.

foreign capital to any considerable extent
dates back only about twenty-five years.
Until this began our home capital found

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
Is it not about time for the Legislature

The present insurance laws of Indiana are
the result OF a combined effort on the part
of the insurance agents of the State. The
bill was prepared and lObbied through by
these agents. The object of the bill was to
shut out competition, and having accom-
pllshed this purpose. they next turn their
attention to fixing board in each county
to determine rates. These rates are at least
81 per cent. too high; but there Is no ap-
peal, as there is no competition Now. it is
well-knOwn fact that there are but two
cities in the United States where the re-
ceipts from insurance policies Will pay the
losses by fire. Then who pays the money
that forms the large assets of insurance

business people. and In order TO do this
they are taxed too high. Since the day
