connpanlea Pay.

Because of the policy of refusing to
grant licenses to companies which
failed to comply with the Somerville
law, the state is enriched by $11,l75.
While other classes of corporations
have refused to file articles with the
secretary of state and pay the re-
quired fee, insurance companies, with
two exceptions, have qualified. The
two in question are expected to come
in under the law in a short time.
In a list prepared Commissioners
O'Shaughnessy figures that 220 COM
panies have been given licenses and
paid the fee asked. Had all corpora
tions, exclusive of insurance COM
panies, been compelled to comply with
the law, the state, it is estimated,
would now have an additional revenue
of about $4,000.
