statute books 81 the state a mortality
table which had been adopted by no
other state, The bill further provided
for no taxes to the state,s no publication
of reports, and was, he believed, being

the fraternal companies but would be
detrimental, and legislation that was
condemned by the insurance depart
ments Of many states. s5,s ..s.$ ss, -. &. 4
