PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re-
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence of Gov.
Hughes, the New York Legislature de-
cided to make no radical changes In
the new insurance law. 1t was pointed
out by Gov. Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms, with proportionate
benefits to policyholders, and that 1t
should be given a thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered. 1t Is estimated that the
cost of the mismanagement of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the benefits
to present and future pol~icyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze of the big companies and the ex.
cessive cost Of securing new business
was the most e~xtravagant evil Of the
old arrangements. Under the new
regime the cost Of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
Life Assurance Society in it's report
for 1906 was a strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there was a
saving of over $1,000, 900 in expenses,
besides an increase in the income
from the Society's assets amounting
to as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
income was 1920 in 1904, 1882 in
1905, and only 14.4S% in 1906. The
dividends paid to Equitable policy
holders in 1906 amounted to $7,2s9, 734,
which was an increase of more than
go over 1905.
While the Equitable made a better
showing than any other big company,
all reported radical economies and I'M
der such conditions the Legislature
wisely decided to leave the law sub
s~tantially as it stands.

had been cut and sodded, the roads
and paths graded and repaired. the
shrubs and hedges trimmed, and the
flower beds filled with rare and well
chosen plants.
Within the house had been cleaned
and renovated from garnet to cellar
and the corps of servants from house
keeper down to kitchen maid, were re-
liable, capable, and of thoroughly at.
tested responsibility, while the stable.
with its new horses and trustworthy
