penalties duying the fiscal year
ended June 80, the departments
annual report disclosed yesterday

During the fiscal year the de-
partment issued about 5000
licenses to insurance companies
and their representatives, includ-
ing insurance brokers. This figure
in the Previous fiscal year was
$500.
The insurance agency admins
tiers laws designed to protect the

fraud by insurance companies and
their representatives and provide
reasonable standards for the terms
of insurance contracts, for regu-
lation of certain insurance rates
and for establishment of actuarily
computed reserves for life insure
ance.

proved general rate revision for

ance, effecting a $50O,0 900 a year
saving for District policyholders

suited in a substantial increase
in rates for automobile, person

writing practically all the finan-
cial responsibility risks in the Dis
trict caused an increase in its
rates for such policies ranging
