TO REGULATE ASSURANCE LAWS
IRREGULARITIES ALLEGED IN
SOME FRATERNAL SOCIETIES,
Examiner Says All Officers handlino
Funds OF Societies Should Be
Under Bonds.

Austin. Tex.--New legislation 70 af
rect the various fraternal and hena.
IlClal life insurance organizations do.
Ing business in Texas is recommend
cd by George p, Warner, the State
examiner of fraternaI and beneficiary
assurance in his annual report filed
with Commissioner Gill for the de
partment of insurance and banking
tuesday. For one thing, Mr.. War
ner's investigations have convinced
him that law to provide bonds for
all officials OF such organizations hay
ing aught TO do with the funds. is nee.
essary in Texas. In proof Of his con.
tention In this respect the examiner
| cites number of alleged irreguari-
ties and defalCatiOns which he saws
were blamable in whCle or in part on
| officers who were not under bond.
Prevention of investment.
! For another thing, the examiner
thinks that there should be law to
! prevent the investment of beneficiary
or fraternal reserve funds by local
lodge officers. He says large num,
Der Of these local officers are plainly
without the qualifications for trusts
Of this kind. He thinks the same law
! which applies TO the investment OF
funds of the Old line companies in
Texas should also be made to apply
to the fraternal societies and unions
and lodges of such orders Of the
State. In this connection the exam.
fraternal organizations had too many
| scattered offices, and he thinks that
the laws should be put on the statute
books TO compel them to centralize
their offices, SO that the books and
accounts would be the more readily
available to examiners of the State
department under whose control the
organizations in question have been
placed. Mr.. Warner expresses the
hope in the course Of his various rec
concentrations that all the States Of
the Union will eventually come tc
adopt what is known as the Mobile
law" relating to the investment Of in
surance funds.
Solicitors Violating Law.
He thinks that the provisions o
this measure are well adopted to rem
edy the evils of which he speaks.
House bill No 4, amending section
10, chapter sc, passed during the ses
sion of the 1911 legislature is round
ty criticized by the examiner H
terms it IAN ill-adyised measure" AM
recommends a number OF amend
ments.
The examiner says that he fount
the State insurance laws being re
peatedly violated by solicitors owe
the State. In some instances he say
that ne heard of men soliciting fund
for organizations which had neye
Deen even Clldl telSu. potiS VI NhNS
solicitors even go SO far as to ref
resent themselves to be preachers an
thereby secure preachers rates on tn
railroads, says the examiner. One Q
the recommendation urges that audi
ing committees be more careful /
their inspection Of the books and rec
ords of fraternal insurance organic
tions. Some of these committee
take entirely too much for granted,
runs the report in this respect.
The report was being considered b
Commissioner Gill and it is possibl
that some of the recommendation
may be submitted to the next legl'
