LIFE INSURANCE 1918 STATISTl
Life Insurance 1918 Statistics

The Insurance Press computations
show an interesting summation Of
life insurance distributions by old
line companies In 1915 and In con
noction with the transactions Of the
Government Insurance. The old line
companies paid 1928. 900, 900 for ma
tured endowments and death claims.
The Government insurance claims
awarded committed value of S192.-
100000. The rate OF mortality IN
old line companies IN LOIS was 80
per cent greater than In 1917 and
IA per cent greater than the death
rate for score of years. This alb
normal death rate has resulted In an
increased amount Of new business
being written by the old line com
panies. During the first six months
of 1919 sixty-four companies wrote
81. SOC. 000. 900 of new insurance
against S950,000,000 in the same
period of 1918. An adequate amount
of life insurance seems 60 be con
sidered a matter Of course, not only
for the protection of family, but al
so for the protection and preserva-
tion Of business enterprises.
The largest payment on single life
IN 1918 was paid to the heirs Of
Robert n. Rowan of Los Angeles In
the amount of $575,000
The influenza epidemic which APP /
in the fall of 1918 is estimat-
ed to have cost the legal reserve life
insurance companies about 800,
100000.
William w. Mills, for many years
one Of the largest merchants in
Topeka, died in 1918 and left $94,-
$40 insurance to his estate. This Is
probably the largest payment made
in Kansas.
The total payments made by old
line companies in Kansas in 1918
aggregate more than one-half mil
lion.
