HOWARD AGAINST CORDEAL
State Auditor Opposes Insurance
Bill Now Under Fire.
WILL KILL HOME COMPANIES
r-n llonn of Men sure II ml, Sn)n
lliMTiiril, n nil Office It Creates
.Vnt Aeeilci! to Do the
Work.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Mnrch 13.-(Speclat.)-8tate
Auditor Howard lias prepared a state
ment regarding tho bill now before the
cnatc known as senate fife No. 364, In
troduced by Cordeal of hed Willow
county, In which he says that tho Insur
ance department of hie office or himself
has not been consulted regarding tho bill,
and that If put In force It will kill out
ilsht the youns homo companies of the
slate. His statement Is as follows:
"The law makes me Insurance commis
sioner of the state of Nebraska. I was
elected auditor becaure the people wanted
me to have control and supervision of
the Insurance business of the state, t
um an experienced Insurance man, hav
ing bee seventeen years In the business.
1 am not an officer or stockholder In
any Insurance company. I took my of
fice .lanuary 9 and have been continu
ously on duty from that day to this.
Call for Hoard.
"Section 3 provides for the creating of
an insurance board composed of the gov
ernor, attorney general and state auditor,
tfhey are to have general supervision and
control of tho Insurance business nnd
are empowered to appoint a secretary
who Is to look after the departmental
work. This will result. In actual prac
tice, that tha, secretary will be the head
of the Insurance department and the
othpr three will have very little or noth
ing to say In tho general routine of the
matters comtng before the insurance
commission for action. It also means
that the people In the state of Nebraska
are going" to be denied In the future tho
right to nay who shall be the head of
the Nebraska Insurance department. Tho
department is made a matter of barter
and exchange.
"The code bill, senate file No. 361, was
prepared without consulting me or any
person In tho auditor's office. I have
never been called into counsel upon the
bill or any other Insurance bill by either
committee. I have, not had a single
provision of the bill called to my atten
tion by the revision comtslssloners or
the committee. However, I know what
is in the bill. I am unalterably opposed
to It for very many particular reasons.
I know that It Is an astault upon the
struggling young llfo companies and our
only two bonding companies. I believe
it will do for the life and bond "compa
nies what has already been done to our
state fire companies. It will kill them
by Inches If not outright.
Affect KxUUiiK Contracts.
"The Insurance companies, of thjs state
have been built up on the present laws.
their contracts, policies and obligations
are bascd.upoh the present statuses; the
department and the companies -know- their
position and standing based upon the
courts, decision on debatable points. To
wipe out tne present laws ana enact n
code conflicting materially from the pres
cnt law means a rearrangement of com
pany and departmental affairs and with
tho resultant litigation to determine de
batable points.
"I am opposed to creating a board of
insurance. It Is a complicated method of
conducting the business. Only one other
state in tho union has an insurance board,
I ant opposed to emasculating the- audit
or's office by taking this branch of its
business" out' of' tho supervision of the
head of the; "department. The principle Is
bad and tho governor .and attorney gen
eral already have more- board business
than they1, can possibly perform. .
"An actuary by the year lsnot needed.
Kxamlners by the year Is reckless ex
travagance. The actuary has only about
three months' work. The examiners do
all their work practically In the early
months of the year. The present fees for
examiners are largely J5 per day, payable
by the companies. The bill gives them
$2,000 each us salary to be paid by the
state. The bill also authorizes the em'
ployment of additional examiners, clerks,
stenographers and employes without limit
This is bad.
"I hope the senators who have not read
this bill will read It through, and study
It, for It will be tho worst legislation
ever enacted In Nebraska, If tho bill goes
lhrough without material amendment."
