20. The Commission may establish and require all employers insured

The Commission shall ascertain and establish the amounts to be paid into
and out of the Accident Fund. Issue proper receipts for moneys received,
and certificates for benefits accrued and accruing from the State Accident

See notes to secs. 18 and 48.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 21. 1914, ch. 800, sec. 21. 1929, ch. 425.

21. Every employer subject to the operation and effect of this Article,
who shall insure in the State Accident Fund, shall every four months sub-
mit a report to the Commission herein created, according to the regulations
and requirements it may prescribe, of his payroll for four months then
ending.

Upon the failure of an employer to comply with the requirements of
the preceding paragraph of this section, the State Industrial Accident
Commission may pass an order cancelling the policy of insurance of any
such employer, such cancellation to be effective upon the expiration of ten
(10) days after the passage of said Order; and it shall be the duty of
the Secretary of the State Industrial Accident Commission to mail a copy
by registered mail of any such Order to the employer at his last known
address promptly after the passage thereof.

Any employer who shall, with fraudulent intent, misrepresent to the
Commission the amount of payroll upon which the premium under this
Article is based, shall be liable to the Commission in ten times the amount
of the difference in the premium paid and the amount the employer should
have paid. The liability to the Commission under this provision shall be
enforced in a civil action in the name of the Commission. All sums col-
lected under this section shall be paid into the State Accident Fund.

See notes to secs. 18 and 48.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 22. 1912, sec. 22. 1914, ch. 800, sec. 22. 1924, ch. 341. 1935, ch. 381.

22. If an employer shall default in any payment required to be made
by him to the State Accident Fund, the amount due from him may be
collected by civil action against him in the name of the State of Maryland,
and the Commission, whenever it may deem it necessary, shall certify to
the Attorney General of the State the names and residences, or places of
business, of any employer known to the Commission to be in default for
such payment or payments, and the amount due from such employer, and
it shall then be the duty of the Attorney General forthwith to bring or
cause to be brought against such employer a civil action in the proper
Court for the collection of such amount so due, and the same, when col-
lected, shall be paid into the State Accident Fund, and the policy which
the State Accident Fund has issued to such employer shall cease to be in
effect from the date such certificate has been made to the Attorney General
of the State, and shall not again be in effect until all premiums due by
such employer have been paid into the State Accident Fund. Any account
which has been certified to the Attorney General for collection may be
settled or compromised when it shall appear to the Attorney General, the
Comptroller of the State and the Chairman of the State Industrial Acci-
dent Commission that such settlement or compromise is to the best interest
