HOME INVESTMENTS.


HOME INVESTMENTS.
The Association is organized on the purely
mutual, or co-partnership plan. Each State Is !
created a distinct department of the company,
and the business placed under the management
of board of directors chosen from lis own
citizens.
The language of the charter is as follows:
"The Board of Directors in each department
shall loan the money to be invested in said De
partment." ~,
Section 81 also provides that "the net present
value of the liabilities of the company, under
policies issued to members of each department,
as fixed by the standard of valuation of the
company, shall be invested, and kept invested
within such department"
OF the wisdom and safety of the plan adopted
by the Association, the Hon. Elizur Wright, of
Boston, benrs testimony rs follows:
''As the true theory of the reserve on any
policy Is, that it is a savings bank deposit, or
selfinsurance, applicable only to that particular
policy itself, when 1t becomes claim. and only
needs to have its principal secure and its in terest
| sufficient, it would not seem possible to have 1t
invested too near the locality where that par
ticular policy will become a claim"
To this feature of local representation and in
Yestment, the Association largely owes its
UNPARALLELED SUCCESS.
THE ONLY COMPANY IN THE UNITED
| STATES that guarantees chartered right
| the principle of local management and local in
| vestments in each State.
| The ONLY COMPANY which, by its charter,
| gives to each State q representative in the
| HOME BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
