ANOTHER INSURANCE COMPANY
ON THE GRILL.

At the close of Walter Wellmans
ness of the country ne presented ia
bles setting forth the results attained
for their policy holders by % leading
companies. In this list the Mutual
Reserve Fund company had the worst
place
II appeared that of the $91, 900, 900
of premiums the company nad col
lected in its "a years of life 1t had re
turned to policy holders SOL 900. 600.
and still retained $4,000, 900 in assets
making n total of s67 ,OO0, 900 of ben
ef1ts. Its premiums collected were.
therefore. $24000,00O greater than the
total of benefits 1t had given. In per
.centages the policy holders had got
back, or still had available in the com
pany's treasury, only 1921 per cent of
tneir premium payments. There were
only eight other companies out of the
25 that had provided benefits less
In amount than their premium col
lections and in all but one of these
the minus percentage was small. In
1.-The best company of the lot, from this
point of view, the benefits to policy
holders had been 12S.73 per cent OF
the premium payments.
The Mutual Reserve Fund company
is now in trouble with the state insur
ance department Of New York, and
an official report that has been made
public indicates that another scandal
comparable In iniquity, If not in eN
tent, with that Of the Equitable, Is
available for the edification of the
man who insures his life The Mn
tual Reserve Fund company has only
one thirteenth as much insurance IN
force as the Equitable. but at that its
total is over $113 30O0. 900
Among the charges against the com.
pany are the illegal manipulation OF
the surplus figures, the concealment
OF judgments and the adoption of
settled policy of delaying the paymen
of death claims. There is also mys
terry as to what became OF certain
commissions the company paid for
the policies of another company
whose business 1t reinsured.
IL Is a good sign that the New York
insurance department has seen its
way clear to publish voluntarily the
truth about this insurance company,
even though the company be compar
atively small and apparently weak
The scandal of the Mutual Reserve
will not. however, distract attention
