LOWER INSURANCE RATE
After Six Years of Prohibition
Reduced Rates are Given
Those who DO Not Use
IntONicants

After more than six years of pro-
hibition under the 18th amendment,
life insurance companies still insist
upon exact answer to the question,
do you use alcoholic liquors?" and
one of the leading insurance com
panies of the west today has an
nounced a Temperance depart
ment." Total abstainers will be
granted a preferred. premium rate
of ten per cent less than those who
admit that they use alcoholic Ii
quors.
Their new policies are modelled
after those of the Scottish temper
ance life policies. in which actuaries
calculate that users of alcoholic
beverages show a 40 per cent higher
mortality rate. Actuaries of four
of the largest western companies
compute their mortality rates among
alcoholic indulgers at 81 to 40 per
cent higher than abstainers. but the
company announcing the temper
ance department" says it is the first
American company to grant pre-
ferred premiums to total abstainers.
