The annual statement of The Northwestern
Mutual Life Insurance Company shows
how its policyholders feel about the mat
ter, because of all the insurance issued by
it in 1921, more than 459o was issued
upon applications of men already insured
in the Northwestern. That is pretty good
Company fair and square, and when
company forms the habit it will con-
tinue to be fair and square" after its
policies mature.
A policy natures" when it becomes pay
able to the insured or to the beneficiary or
benefciaries named therein. II is of the
utmost importance that company always
have sufficient funds with which to pay
claims promptly when called upon to doso.
The law requires all life insurance compa-
MES constantly to maintain sinking fund
for that purpose and prescribes the method
Of computing the fund, which is called the
reserve. On January l, 1922 the law
required the Northwestern to have re-
serve" amounting to over $50 million dol
lars, and on that day it had assets to the
amount of 507 million dollars. IF these as
sets Were good, then the reserve was safe.
Just exactly how good these assets are
may be judged from the fact that 224 mil
lion dollars of them are in first lien, real
estate mortgages (l5s million in farm and
90 million in city loans) on property val
ued at 724 million; 1870 million in United
States and other high-grade bonds, and
70 million in advances made to policy
holders upon the security of the cash
value of their own policies.
The statement shows that the Northwest
ern had reserve for contingencies" over
all liabilities amounting to some "a million
dollars.
The Northwestern did not break any rec
ords in writing new policies in 1921, but it
progressed and prospered. 1t had the big
gest and best financial year in its history,
permitting it to continue its established
dividend scale" throughout 1922. This

means that the cost of insurance to its
policyholders will be less ia 1922 than it
was in 1921.
If policyholders have noticed, every time
they pay their premiums, they get re-
fund. We have all become accustomed
to refer to this refund as dividend.
1t is not a dividend, however, in the
commercial sense. Here is how it arises:
Premiums in mutual company are COM
puted with an allowance for safety and
when the cost of the insurance for the
year is ascertained, any excess is returned
to pohcyholders. The net cost of insur-
ance, therefore. depends upon this refund
OF the unused part of the premium.
Policyholders are interested in expenses, for the
smaller the expenses the larger the "dividends".
One item Of expense should Interest pohcyholders
especially, and that is taxes. For the privilege
of doing business for their policyhoders, life in
surance companies subject to heavy burdens
of taxation, both state and national Taxes
charged expense and II they did not exist,
the net cost of insurance would be just that much
lower.
Despite this heavy item, The Northwestern Mutual
Life Insurance Company has kept up and we be-
iieve it will keep up, its refunds to policyholdersi
and this it do because of careful selection of
risks, expert and advantageous investment of
funds and rigid economy of management
