The secretary of stale ut Iowa, under Iowa luuu, Is collecting annually more than $100,000 In fees ou filing of articles of In corporation. It was predicted that when tho uow law went Into effect Increasing tho fees and basing them ou tho capital stock of thu companies Incorporated, there would be a great decrease In thu number of corporations doing business In Iowa, but, on tho contrary, tho number of new corporations Is Increasing rapidly. Never before In the history of the state havo thero been so many new companies. Tho secrc- I tary of stato has pending beforu the sit- I promo court a cose which Involves tho fco business. A company capitalized for a large sum had expired by limitation of the charter ond afterwards applied for con tinuance by filing nn amendment to tho old charter extending the time. The secre tary of (.tate took tho ground that a dead company could not thus resuscitate Itself and demanded over $600 In fees. The com pany refused to pay nnd has taken the coso to the supreme court. The secretary of state holds that tho reincorporation of a company or extending Its time is the -untile as organizing a new company. Tho at torney general of tho state today ren dered a dechlon on another phase of the question. The American Grain Ihirlfler Conutructltig company, Incorporated at Pierre, S. D., sought to do business In Iowa, but refused to pay the $260 fee do matidod for legalizing It as an Iowa com pany. Tho attorney general was appealed to and has decided that outolde. corpora tions seeking to do business In Iowa as Iowa companies must pay the samo filing foe as Iowa companies.. The company Is capitalized for $250,000, henco tho fco de manded was $250. l'urdoneil to A Mr nil Ftmcrnl.
