Southern life insurance policy holder profits urged
A Louisiana banker at the St. Charles Hotel argues that southern policy holders gain little because most life insurance funds are invested in the north. He proposes a strong southern stock company with at least one million capital, locally invested to balance national savings and spur regional industry, with policy holders as owners and control. The plan aims to keep hundreds of millions in the south and attract banker support.
