CHANGE PROPOSED.
Committee on REIMBURSEMENT of MI. w. A.
Insurance Reports FavOrabiy for
an Increased Rate

The plan of the Modern WOOdmen
committee on rate adjustment, to
revise the rates of assessment Of bene-
fetal member of the Modern Wood
men of America, has been submitted
to the mem bership of the society
through the medium of the February
issue of the official publication, copies
of which arrived in the city a few
DAYS ago. The plan proposed is a
radical increase in the present rates
of assessment.
The report of the committee fills
nearly nineteen columns of the official
paper. So far as may be judged by
persons unacquainted with the actu-
rial science, the report is a very com
plete exposition of the present condi-
ton, from life insurance standpoint,
of the Modern Woodmen society.
Reduced to everyday English, the
substance of the committees findings
is that the society's present rates of
assessment are both inequitable and
inadequate, and, if a majority of the
mem bers oppose change, the society
will ultimately 60 the wall-at least
it's insurance feature will,
The new rates submitted for the
approval of the mem bership are a
com bination of what are known as
natural and level premium rates.
That is, up to the age of 70 the rates
increase with age on the natural plan,
and after the member reaches 20 the
increase ceases. The rate thereafter
remains level, at 1910 per assess
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1902-02-06
ment per 81. 900.

ment per $1,000.
In order to ihtelligently understand
how the rates recommended by the
committee will be applied, it may be
explained that mem Der entering at
81 will pay a mortality rate of 80 cents
per assessment and a reserve rate in
addition of 20 cents per assessment,
making the cost IS cents, whereas the
present rates of assessment cali for
but 45 cents. However, under the
present plan the rates of assessment
do not change or increase with in
creasing age. If the committees
recommendation is adopted the mem
Der will start in at "a years ofage pay
inc mortality rate of so cents per
assessment per 1000 insurance in
force. This rate increases each year
until, as stated, the member reaches
the age of 20. The reserve rate, how
ever, remains the same and does not
increase With age. Entering at "a
years of age the reserve rate Is rs
cents, which the member will pay
each month in addition to his NOR
tality rate until, at the age of 20, the
level rate of 1915 per 81, 900 per as
sessment becomes effective.
It figured by the REIMBURSEMENT
committee that the mortality rate
alone will pay all costs of the mem
ber's insurance until be reaches the
age of 20. Then his monthly contri-
buttons to the reserve rate are drawn
upon to pay the increased cost over
and above his mortality rate beyond
that age. But, should member de-
sire to sever his connections with the
society before he reaches the age of
70 all his contributions to the reserve
fund are returned to him.
The new plan, if adopted, becomes
effective Jan. l, 1904. All the old
mem bers will then be rerated at their
attained ages, and thereafter new
mem bers will, as the plan. provides, be
rated at entry age.
The society's management on the
rate question. as disclosed by inquiry
at the head office, is in favor of action
by the mem bership, but it will make
no difference to the management if
The mem bershIp votes down the plan.

Editorial Notes.

Whatever the views OF the Amerl-
can people may have been concerning
the return of Richard Croker of Want
age, the English papers are not at all
backward in expressing their opinions.
The St. James Gazette says: ''We
can assure our friends on the other
side that he will be stranger within
our gates, and an unwelcUme stranger
at that"
There is going to be a contest IN
the effort to make the Census Bureau
permanent OF account of the clause
that will effect the standing of the
EMPLOYEES under the civil service
rules. Democrats favor putting all
the clerks under the civil service when
the change is made, because if this is
not done their appointees will probab-
lv be thrust out under the present
Republican regime. The Commission
and President Roosevelt are said to be
opposed to having the present force
of clerks sheltered under the protect
ing wings of the classified service.
The persons who favor giving up
the Philippines had better say now
all they have to say for the longer
they wait the more maiapropos will
be their remarks. 1t must be re-
membered that the improvements
reported by Governor Taft were made
while the islands were practically
dead, and the opening of the islands
to the building of railroads and to
commercial enterprise will make the
tire of industry replace the flames OF
lnsurrection and brigandage.
The south has long claimed to be
the seat of Americun chivalry, but
Manchester, VT, is entitled to be
known as the centre of politeness.
The most disastrous fire of the past
generation in that town was discover
ed by a young lady, who, seeing the
Board Of Trade ia session in the
doomed block, announced: Gentle
men, excuse me for iuterrupting, but
the entire mott tn side of this building
is on fire..
Edward Everett Hale, ia an address
to Yale students, said that the present
era of unparalleled prosperity for
America is apt to bring the country
o a period of national vain glory.
He is willing that Americans shall
have proper pride for their achieve
ments, but says they must be careful
not to offend other countries by lay
ing too much stress on the superiority,
of the United States. The ''American
INVASION" of Europe is most resenting
when there is bravado in the invader.
