To The People Of Georgia:

The most important bill ever put before a General
Assembly affecting the general welfare of the state is
in danger Of being lost by failure to secure hearing
before the committee.
This bil-introduced by Senator Mann-provides
that life insurance companies doing business in Geor-
gia shall invest in Georgia part of the reserves that
must be invested for the protection Of Georgia policy
holders.
Several years ago, when legislation of this char
acter was attempted, the great life insurance conpa-
MES of the East said that it was an experiment having
been adopted in only one state Of the Union They
said Georgia afford to wait and profit by the ex-
perience of Texas. If the law works to advantage
this state will have lost thing by waiting Texas
however, has never seen fit to repeal this law al
though it has adopted slight notifications in regard
to taxations that were calculated to eliminate the
only Objectionable feature that has been successfully
urged against legislation Of this character
IF FIVE YEARS OF SUCCESSFUL OPERA
TION is NOT SUFFICIENT TO DEMONSTRATE
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-07-27

THE EFFICIENCY OF S UGH A LAW, 1T WILL
NOT BE DEMONSTRATED IN FIFTY YEARS.
The opponents of this bill will say that all good
companies will withdraw from Georgia Such will not
be the case Texas called the bluff by passing
pulsory investment law and is in the full enjoy
ment of the fruits of its wisdom and foresight AS a
matter of fact the companies will not all withdraw
from Georgia but the Eastern companies who are so
bitter in their opposition to the investment of
sonable portion of their funds in the territory from
which they have extracted premiums will fight every
of this kind introduced in this state and final
ly conclude to accommodate themselves to the re-
qurements Of any state the legislature Of which has
sufficient faith and courage to demand for their
stituents square deal in the investment Of premiums
paid by these same constituents.
The adoption of this legislation is inevitable since
it is founded merely the right Of the poicyholders
of foreign corporations to require these corporations
invest within the state of Georgia reasonable per-
centage of the premiums hat they paying out
nualy and which go mainly direct to the East.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-07-27

If some of the companies that withdrew from
Texas follow a similar policy on the enactment Of
compulsory investment law for Georgia, Georgia is
not only destined to survive the shock but like Texas
to enjoy the increased nve stment of funds here BY
those other companies who remain as we believe that
Eastern companies after IA lure make an example Of
Texas, scarcely expect to follow similar policy
toward every other state hat enacts legislation Of this
kind.
The investment Of these funds, as required by the
Mann b will eventually result in decreased rate Of
interest farm loans Rates of interest in this state
too high not by of the risk assumed by the
lender but because the demand fbp money is greater
than the supply. 1t will certanl5 Bring millions Of
dollars to Georgia. and al in ufbanafng the state
