 Elected Yesterday
HALLIDAY'S REPORT
President Jelks Points Out That As- sets, Policy Reserves and Surplus Have Doubled in the Last
 Three Years

The stockholders of the Protective Life Insurance company held their an- nual meeting at the home office of the company, in the Empire building. at noon yesterday and Col. R. A. Mitchell was elected chairman of the stockholders meeting.
 The president reported that the com pany had, since the first of January, been audited by W. R.. Halliday, by instructions from the insurance de- partment of the state. The company has always been examined in January of each year by an actuary appoint ed by the insurance department, so that the company's affairs, from a disinter- ested source, might be laid before the stockholders at their annual meeting. MT. Halliday's report show that the assets of the company have grown from $460, ,46S.n December 31 1913, to s569,S44.74, December 31, 1e14; the
 report also shows that the policy re- serves have grown from s252.965 to
 $330, 800: that the surplus has grown to s89,031, which is gain in surplus
 of about 30 per cent over the surplus as it stood last year. The showing
 was, therefore very satisfactory to the
 officers
 The president reported further that
 the assets, the policy reserves anG the surplus-each item-had doubled in the last three years. The assets of the company consist in mortgages on real estate-mostly farms-taken at an aver age valuation of not above 40 per cent and in no case exceeding 50 per cent of the value of the property. The pres ident considered that there must be a wreck of natter before this collat- eral could be impaired.
 The company has loaned, since it has been in business, something like s1,0O0, 600 In all and has never lost single dollar on collateral of any kind. On January there were two interest notes overdue, the company carrying no further overdue paper The president was very proud of the report which he was able to make in respect to the loans He did not think the company had a piece of collateral worth less than it's face. The interest earnings of the company, he went on further to report, aside from interest on policy loans, and aside from interest on N4,oo0 of bonds s10,O00 of these bonds be- ing Alabama bonds, amounted to an aver

This was yer gratifying because one would natural expect larger lapse ratio. on accoun of tile financial condition of the country He thought that 1t meant that the peopl in the territory served by the Protectiv Life had learned to appreciate the valu of their policies in this company, the req condolences of the premiums charged, an the stability of the company, in stil larger degree than heretofore
 Actuary Halliday, in writing of the com pany, has this to say: The success O the company Is, of course. due to tn economy which has been shown at tn home office, to the wise and prudent in vestment of the funds and the great car shown in tho selection~as~n,sks."
