The difference between the rates OF
tn Insurance companies and the Colon.
inl Fraternal Order is caused by their
extra heavy loading for expenses. as
shown In the table above. The large
commission paid their agents. and their
extravagant salary-roll and office pay
mcnts, necessarily require large al.
lowance for expenses OF management
than q fraternal society needs, and
their increase premiums do not Rthere-
fore make their insurance any safer
than the protection furnished by the
Colonial Fraternnl Order.
The Colonial Frnterna1 Order hns
combined adequate reserve safety,
which is the key note of the Insurance
system. with fraternal economy.
which is the basic principle OF the
Fraternnl Societies. Every member,
therefore. pays an adequate rate to
carry his promised benefits. and saves
the extra payments required by lnsur-
nnce companies to meet their extrava-
CANT expenses.
We note from the Frick Committees
report OF the Equitable Life that 13 OF
the executive officers held same posi-
ton In 1906 us in 1900, but in 1900
their aggregate salaries were $297 900
In 1905 they were s44S, 500, an Increase
of 81 per cent. The salary OF the Vice
President, which was $4,000 in 1900
and 1901. was advanced to $4,000 in
1902. to 100000 in 1903. At the time
he received salary of 100000 he was
"a years of age. When his salary was
Increased to $4,000 he was &c. and
when 1t was again increased to $780,

to holding the presumably purify hon

corporations, that lie was Vice-Presi-
