THE EQUITABLE LIFE ASSURANCE
SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES
MAKES THE FOLLOWING NNONCE-
MENT TO THE PUBLIC:

MENT III The RI BLU:
The dissatisfaction which prevails
throughout the community with regard to
onerous conditions contained in life assur-
ance contracts and the judicial decisions
based thereon together with the public in
dorsement of the liberal usages of this So
ciety, as shown by its largely increased
business, has led the management seriously
to consider whether the contract could not
be simplified and certain conditions eresed
therefrom which have been the subject of
much criticism and misconception.
After careful examination of the ex-
perience of some Of the best companies in
Great Britain, who have shown greater
liberality than has been customary in this
country, this society feels justified in adopt
ing form of contract in which the follow
ing important concessions are made to pol
icy holders throughout the United States:
/. Policies will be made incontestable
after three years from their date.
2. Each ordinary policy will provide for
a defnate surrender-value in paid-up assur-
ance, in case the policy is forfeited after
three years from its date.
8. Each Tontine policy will contain
definite surrender-value in cash, IN case Of
withdrawal at the end of the tontine
period.
A. The contract will be concisely and
clearly expressed, containing only such
provisions as are necessary to protect the
policy-holder.
g. The above concessions will hereafter
inure to the benefit of all policies already
issued and in force, after three years from
their dates respectively.
