REFORM IN INSURANCE.

What an Improved Law Might Ac-
cOlnpIish for the Insured.
Certain changes in the law can help
make insurance what it should be,
though wider knowledge must be the
basis both for the law and for the i'm
proVements, says 20. P" in Worlds
Work. The law can make it easier
to understand what one pays for when
he buys a life insurance policy and to
prevent his being swindled by false
representations.
The law can offer only part of the
remedy, but it can do this:
First. Forbid a life insurance COM
pany from selling anything except
pure life insurance policies
Second. Prescribe a standard pol
isy, simple and Ineligible
Third. Require every policy to state
on its face both the total premium and
the items which go to make up that
total-the mortality charge, the reserve
and the amount added to meet the ex-
penses.
Fourth. Require that all savings in
mortality, collections and interest on
the reserve assets be credited annual
ly on the next premium that will fall
due.
Fifth. Apply the savings bank law
to the investment of life insurance as
sets.
Sixth. Stop the robbery Of unfortu-
nate policy holders in surrender val
ues and make life insurance irrevoca-
BILE. A life insurance policy is not a
personal investment, but a protection
for the policyholder's family, or cred
itors.
There are companies which sell SIM
pie forms of policy and even the most
complicated forms can be put in an
ineligible language by an insurance
lawyer for a reasonable fee. The cost
of the annual charge for death losses,
the excess interest on the sums set
aside for reserve and the allowance to
meet expenses can all be ascertained
through insurance publications and the
gain and loss exhibits required in sew
eral of the states. But chiefly the evil
of regarding life insurance as an in
vestment and subjecting it to the per-
lis of investments, exists In almost ev-
cry form Of policy and requires posi-
tive legislative action.
