Compulsory Investment Law.

A strong talk against the principle OF
compulsory investment Of resources was
given by Robert Lynn Cox. general coun-
sci fer the Association OF Life Insurance
fore the Texas Welfare commission al
Dallas, Tex. He said that the Robertson
compulsory law now In force in Texas,
had completely failed in It's purpose to
cheaper capital in the Lone Star state.
The Welfare commission is the result
OF all Investigation started by the Com
mercial Secretaries association OF Texas
to ascertain the reasons for the back
wardness Of business in the state The
commission has inquired into fire and HE
insurance and the railroad business. and
a short time ago heard representatives
of the state life insurance companies
which have profIted by the Robertson
law. This statute requires life insur-
ance companies TO invest three -fourths
OF their reserves on business written In
the state in securities of the common
wealth.
When st went into effect most OF the
more prominent companies ceased writ
ing new business In the state, The po-
stion taken by the managers was that
they could not be bound TO confinc them
selves to Texas securities when It was
their duty To go TO the best market Of
fered for investment.
The first half Of Mr. Cox's address was
devoted to the general financial fallacy
involved In trying TO keep capital where
II originates, instead OF allowing ii tc
sesk the fields where natural inducement
and demand call for Il. He showed whore
Massachusetts reserves amounted "a
81 45. 900, 900 as against the comparatively
small sum Of Texas reserves, and ask ed
il were tied up by retaliatory laws In
each state where II originated. Interest
he said, would be killed and development
in the newer states greatly retarded.

State Life Underwriters association,
urges the members to join an endless
chain movement having for It's object the
securing OF the passage Of bin now be-
fore congress intended TO relieving insuI-
ance companies from taxation on life
policy dividends. Says Mr.. Vailt
"The refund Of premium on your life
insurance is unjustly taxed by the act
Of August S. 1909, as though II were a
commercial dividend from an investment,
when In fact II is an expense Item not
producing an income As life insurance
for the family prevents there being a
charge upon the public, II should be en-
couraged and be free from taxation. AS
this act adds about 100000 unjust tax
alton TO q business that is already
grevously burdened with the payment OF
state taxes and feeg OF about S4, 900 600
annually, and there evidently was an
oversight in the wording OF the act. we
will ask you TO join movement looking
to It's repeal"
Mr. Vail concludes by saying that If
the movement Is successful 1t VIII mean
the saving OF much money to hfe policy
holders 1.-The question he says. 'of
unjust and discriminating taxation is now
up To you. Will you help secure the
