Suicide Question Discussed.

Considerable discussion is going on in
the east between various newspapers and
insurance journals on the question OF sui
eide and It's relation 10 life insurance.
Some are claiming that destruction
is more frequent among persons carrying
life insurance than among the non-in
sured. Those making this assertion do
not present any statistics. however The
theory OF those making the claim is that
man with life insurance is tempted TO
lake his own life and thus provide for his
family rather than live and witness their
priVations One paper compares such
act with the crime OF arson where one
burns his property TO secure the insur-
proposition an insurance weekly says:
III Is hardly as bad as that" Continu-
ing the same paper says; when a man
IS willing TO give up his life for his fam
lily there is a vague instinct OF sympathy
aroused for him. There is high author
ity behind the declaration that Greater

Decision Favors Company.

A suit instituted by the Old Line
Bankers Life OF Lincoln, Neb. to com
pei Commissioner Done to approve It's
policies was last week decided In favo,
OF the company.
The refusal was based on the fact thai
the policies are valued on the pei
cent actuaries table while the basis pre-
scribed by the Utah law is 81 per cent
American experience table after January
1. 1910.
The commissioner ruled that higher
valuation than that prescribed by law
was justified but not being lower. He
also ruled that policies on lower valua :
ton could not be issued in the state The
company contended that the lower valua- :
ton policy could be issued so long as
the company reported a sufficient reserve
at the end OF each year to show sovency
on the higher basis prescribed by the law
Judge Morse decided in favor of the COM
pany's contention. In all likelihood the
case will be appealed TO the state supreme
court
