Show Insurance Company Forced to Quit Business Because of alleged violations of the state law prohibiting discrimination dis-crimination between risks of the same class, according to Deputy Commissioner C. N. Ottosen, the permit of the Guardian Benefit association to write insurance in Utah was canceled Friday by the State Insurance commission. Order to the state commission to cancel the permit was issued by Attorney General Joseph Chez in an opinion written by Deputy Attorney General Grover A. Giles, who ruled that the commission, upon being satisfied that a company com-pany had violated the law, must revoke the certificate and that no new permit might be issued for at least six months from the revocation revoca-tion date. Deputy Attorney General Zelph S. Calder,. on April 2 0 informed the State Insurance commission that "The contract, wherein the benefits offered are $300 in funeral fun-eral benefits or $2 75 in cash, is clearly a discrimination of benefits bene-fits payable thereon and hence is in violation of the law." |
