Dress whereupon such policy holders
should not lose every cent they may have
paid In. The matter needs carefully SUI
peryision and pruning by our Legislators
Correct the fragrant steal that exist in this

bill by all means and thus put proven
tive upon possible crime, before it is too
late. The Companies doing this kind of
insurance business will undoubtedly have
paid attorneys down at Dover to try and
defeat the bill, but no lobblsts should have
any influence in matter SO vital to our
citizens welfare as this bill promised to be.
