Policy contracts declared invalid in Iowa action
The Iowa insurance department, after an investigation by state officials, ruled that about 2 879 National Life association policy contracts issued since May 1913 are invalid. The action could require restoring up to 82 543.91 in premiums and may force the company to raise its deposit to 514 642.26. The move follows a suit against the National Life association and its president for mismanagement. The state seeks to protect policyholders and may seek repayment if courts sustain the ruling.
