Re Section 34 (page 899) and First Schedule (page 900) Section

34 provides that any Company having made a deposit in Great

Britain shall be exempt from provisions of this Ordinance. Such

Companies will, of course, make their returns to the Board of

Trade in the form prescribed by the Act of 1870. Under these

circumstances it would be grossly unfair to demand from the

Companies not making returns in Great Britain any particulars

items should, I think, he asked for until the similar items

are required by the Board of Trade. Taking the item "Claims

Resisted by the Company" the Agent of the home which no such

903). In the note at the foot of the schedule these words

appear "If policies are issued in or for any country at rates

of premium deduced from tables other than the European Mortality

Tables adopted by the Company, separate Schedules similar in

form to the above, must be furnished". This clause seems to me

not at all to express what is intended. In the first place the ordinances refer principally to Companies doing almost entirely

an Eastern business. The premiums charged by these Companies
