this year in the blanks upon which the the departments. Many of the compa- 1 nies have complained of the fact that
 the blank differ in various states, and 1t is matter much to be regretted for the convenience of the companies that vari- ous insurance departments have not ad- hered to the blank adopted at the con- vention of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, A proper de- sire to preserve the records of this insu- rance department in convenient form has necessitated the return to several of the companies of the investment sched- ules which, owing to their size and ar- engagement, were not in conformity with the blank and the letter of instructions issued from this office. It is a source of gratification to the commissioner to be able to state that with scarcely an ex- ceptlon the companies have promptly acceded to his demands.
 There has been a considerable num- ber of bills introduced in the legisla- ture. Some of them have been report ed favorably by the committee, and some have been rejected, mostly amendments to the laws of the pres ent but nothing of a very radical na- ture has been passed up to the present time.
 Insurance laws, as a whole, should be revised, for. at the present time, there are many kinds of insurance, and new companies applying for admission, for which the laws are deficient. I recom- mend that action be taken by this gen. eral assembly concerning a complete revision of the public acts relating to Insurance. I have recommended to the insurance committee that a committee or a commission to prepare for submis- sion to the next general assembly law to be known as the Insurance act" to take the place of the present incomplete and somewhat contradictory insurance laws now in force, and to supplement the many deficiencies of the laws relating to new forms and phases of insurance (which have come into existence in recent years.
 During my term of office I have en- deavored to carry out the insurance laws and protect companies and agents as we'll as to look after the interests of the policyholders.
 To the officers of the companies and their agents who have had business with my department during the past four years, I wish to express my appre- citation for their readiness in complying with all requirements.
 To the employees of this office I am especially grateful for the great assist ance they have rendered me by their faithfulness and loyalty.
 l trust that my successor, to whom l have already extended my congratula- tions, will enjoy the-duties of the office. and that his administration will be a successful one. I shall be pleased to render him assistance at any time.
