Life makes the startling announce
ment that most people have a wrong
conception of the function of a life
insurance company. He says the
policy holders look upon life insur-
ance company as an organization to
invest their money ard TO earn money
for them, but as matter of fact the
true function of a life insurance COM
pany is elemosynary. That it is the
duty of these companies to spread
their benefits throughout the world.
Mr.. McCurdy is Slightly wrong. Most
people had an idea that the money
which policy holders paid in was used
for the benefit of the policy holders.
Fully as large a proportion of the peo-
pie are now convinced that the life
insurance compa MES are elemosynary
but that the sole beneficiaries of these
institutions are the sons and sons-in-
law of the president and other officers
Wheeler H. Peckham. whose death
occurred recently in New York, was
a man of more than passing note. He
was the coadjutor of Tilden IN the
great fight against the Tweed ring.
He was nominated by President Cleve-
land as a Justice of TIL Supreme Court
of the United States, but the nominal
ton was rejected by the United States
Senate because of the opposition of
David B. Hill, who was then senator
from the state of New York. Peckham
was an independent Democrat who
had incurred the hostility of Governor
Hill by the strenuous fight which he
made against Hills man Maynard
when the latter was Il candidate for
Judge of the Court of Appeals. Mr..
Peckham never held any high public
position but he was man who always
himself in political affairs.
He was always found fighting in OPP
position to the bosses and ringsters.
His activities cost him a seat on the
United State supreme bench.
