authority - Bank certificate - Issuance of certificate of authority. Before a benevolent society may issue a certificate of membership, it must have actual applications for certificates from at least three hundred persons upon which certificates may be issued simultaneously. The applications, together with a certificate from a solvent bank stating that there has been deposited to the account of the society an amount which is determined by the preliminary applications presented as constituting the entire proceeds of membership fees collected, must be submitted to the commissioner. Upon submission to the commissioner of the preliminary applications, the bank certificate, and any evidence of compliance with this chapter which the commissioner requires, the commissioner may issue to the society a certificate of authority to expire on the thirtieth day of April following the date thereof.
