| 7 |
| Sec. 4. Authorization of withholding. An employee or | 8 |
| annuitant may
authorize the withholding of a portion of his | 9 |
| salary, wages, or annuity for any
one or more of the following | 10 |
| purposes:
| 11 |
| (1) for purchase of United States Savings Bonds;

| premiums on policies of
automobile insurance as defined in | 16 |
| Section 143.13 of the "Illinois
Insurance Code", as amended, | 17 |
| and the personal multiperil coverages commonly
known as | 18 |

| or
annuities may be withheld to pay premiums on automobile, | 20 |
| homeowner's,
life or accident and health insurance policies | 21 |
| issued by any one insurance
company or insurance service | 22 |
| company unless a minimum of 100 employees or
annuitants insured | 23 |
| by that company authorize the withholding by an Office
within 6 | 24 |
| months after such withholding begins. If such minimum is not
| 25 |
| satisfied the Office may discontinue withholding for such | 26 |
| company. For any
insurance company or insurance service company | 27 |
| which has not previously had
withholding, the Office may allow | 28 |
| withholding for premiums, where less than
100 policies have | 29 |
| been written, to cover a probationary period. An
insurance | 30 |
| company which has discontinued withholding may reinstate it | 31 |
| upon
presentation of facts indicating new management or | 32 |
| re-organization
satisfactory to the Office;
