Wright replies to Dobbs charges on state insurance cases

Comptroller General William A. Wright publishes a final reply denying Dobbs claims. He states income certificates issued by State Mutual Life Insurance before 1913 were non sale instruments to settle large claims, not cash profits, and defends Empire Life litigation ruling. He explains capital impairment handling under 1912 act and notes Augusta stock subscriptions funded the required office build. He confirms his salary remained $2,000, and the 1912 act set the commissioner’s salary at $3,000.
