Insurance Commissioner Done has sen
the following communication to all acci
dent companies operating in the state:
1t has been reported to the insur-
ance department that agents OF acci-
dent insurance companies are taking
up policies Of other companies which
have been in force long enough to
acquire the accumulation feature.
II is stated that in some such cases
the amount OF accumulation acquired
in the old policies is covered by the
issuance OF new policies in equal
amount in the company to which the
insurance is transferred.
The ruling of the insurance depart
ment is that this accumulation fea-
ture Is a product OF time and can
not be transferred from one COM
pany to another II new policy Is
written In the other company and
the addition represented by the old
accumulation Is made II must be paid
