April 11.—Charges that a combination exists between Are in surance companies of the state, detri mental to thousands of policyholders, and thru tne combination tho policy holders are being robbed of thousands of dgllarK was chareed in a resolution introduced in the house yesterday. The resolution, which was drawn up by Representative W. D. Miller, of Boone county, asked that the attorney genera.! be directed proceed with the investigation to determine as to the existence of such combinations and violations of law. The resolution charged that Jl.OOft 000 -was collected as an extra war tax charge -which should not have been collected from the policyholders. The resolution follows: "Whereas, there exists evidence to warrant the belief that the Are insur ance companies operating In Iowa are taking an excessive and unwarranted amount of premiums on risks written by them under the guise of war con ditions. Further, that it is the belief that there exists a combination or agreement between said Are insurance companies, or their agents, contrary to the laws of this state and detri mental to the finances of the thous ands of policy holders of this state, and that they are taking from said policyholders thru such combinations an enormous sum of money which is not a legitimate business transaction further, that in addition to such un warranted increases in the rate of premiums that such fire insurance companies did collect during the year of 191S, the sum ofrS"86.264.70, repre sented to be a 30 per cent surcharge on all premiums collected that only 1 per cent of said sum. or J7S.626.47. is required to meet the war tax of the government on said premiums collect ed, thereby leaving a net profit on this item alone of nearly $1,00"),000. As evidence of the fact that-this amount should not have been collected to say nothing of the unwarranted high rate of premiums', it is cited that the state of Wisconsin, which is similarly situ ated as is Iowa, prohibited any such surcharge. "Believing that the above acte are directly in conflict with section seven ten hundred fifty-four (17-54) of the code—known as the Blanchard law therefore, "Be it resolved, by the house of rep resentatives of the thirty-eighth gen eral assembly, that the attorney gen eral be and ta hereby directed to pro ceed with an investigation to determine as to the existence of such combina tions and violations of law."
