The only item in this exhibit which
does not explain itself is probably the
saving from the reserve on policies sur
rendered or not renewed-$S5,4 02. This
grows out of lapsed and surrendered
policies Qess those reinstated) for
$5,12S,651, the reserve upon which was
sS40, 145, of which amount $754743, or
about 80 per cent, was returned to the
policy holders in paid-up insurance,
cash or otherwise, leaving the saving
mentioned, $S5, 402. This covers policies
which had not been in force long
enough to have value; but is princi-
pally made up of small surrender charge
made upon each surrendered policy to
help in replacing the business so lost,
to cover the cost of the change, and
to protect the company against the i'm
paired vitality caused by the voluntary
withdrawal of sound lives. Not only
the fairness but the necessity of this
saving will be obvious to all familiar
with the nature of the TRANSACTIONS out
of which it is made; and it's moderation
in amount. proportioned to those trans
actions, is cheerfully submitted to COM
parison.
Let it be noted that were we doing a
Tontine or speculative ''investnlent'
business, the whole sS4O,145 of reserve
and all the surplus it had accumulated
would have gone into the pool
