LIFT DREADED
TAX LOAD
Life Policy Meets Debts
Which Inevitably Fall
Due at Death.

The annual cost of maintaining in
surance TO meet inh ,ritance taxes is
relatively small, varying from IL
per cent to 10 per cent of the amount
misunderstanding probably about 3
per cent in most cases.
If'the average man of wealth should
suddenly be called upon to pay the
equivalent Of the federal and state in
heritance taxes which would fall due
at his death. he would find it ex-
trcmely difficult to do. so. yet that is
precisely the situation which the heirs
to his property might be forced to
meet The premiums on a life insur-
ance policy sufficient to dcfray the
taxes are payable in easy installments
and create what might be termed a
sinking fund.- to meet the debts
which death brings--debts which will
inevitably fall due ;Jme time, the ex-
act date only being uncertain.
d, TAXABILITY OF INSURANCE.
The federal estate tax law in de-
yining gross estate" provides as fol-
lows:
Section 302: That the value of the
gross estate of the decendent shall be
determined by including the value at
the time of his death of all property.
real or personal, tangible, wherever
situated
s (g) To the extent of the amount
receivable by the executor as insurance
under policies taken out by the de-
cendent upon his own life; and TO the
extent of the excess over $4,000 of
the amount receivable by all other
beneficiaries as insurance under poll
cies taken out by the deccndent upon
his own life.
TAX EXEMPTION.
From the above it will be seen that
the proceeds of policies taken out by
the decendent upon his own life and
payable to individual beneficiaries are
exempt from tax to the extent of
$4,000 under the federal law. There
is no exemDtion where policies
taken out by the decedent upon his
own life are payable TO his estate or
where the proceeds are to be used for
the benefits of the estate.) However,
this is not an individual exemption al
lowed each beneficiary to whom in
surance money is payable. but is an
exemption on the aggregate amount OF
all policies.

TAX EXEMPTION.

Question-How much advance no.
tice is now required on the new forms
of rain policies? j.
Ansvcr-As was true under the old
system, seven days advance notice is
required on all risks except mercantile
risks. which take IL days.

INSURANCE men LEAD
DRIVE TO CURB CRIME

to convince the youth of the
country that honesty not only is the
safe policy, but also is the real prin.
ciple on which to construct q happy
and successful life. Many thousands OF
men every year are wrecking their
lives permanently by impulsivc yield
ing TO temptation. This warning mes
sage is given to the nations youth.
Another anti-crime activity which
insurance companies launched is the
relentless prosecution of all criminals.
The public has 10 idea of the daily
pressure on surety companies to com.
promise with wrong-doers. Not only
do the relatives of the wrong-doers
flood our offices with tears, but the
wrong-doers themselves offer us di.
rectly or through their lawyers all
sorts of compromises and bargains.
Our business policy is that compromis'
ing or bargaining with wrong-doers
merely encourages them 10 continue
their wrong-doing and that the only
way TO keep other weak or misguided
people from initiating them is TO make
them pay for their crimes. Embezzler9
must return every penny they steal to
their victimized employers. Thieves
and swindlers must refund the last
cent of the property they filched away.
Another serious feature of the pres
ent crime wave is that at least four.
fifths-S0 per cent-of all crimes are
committed by youths under % years
of age. This is obviously because the
M. ~ Of he
impoverished and potentially desper
ate class is not equal TO their wants
Most of these young men-whethei
foreign or American-have attended
our public schools for at least n few
years.
WORLD INFLUENCE.

movies, frequent pool rooms and dance
halls, exchange views with one an
other. are restless with various phys.
ical and mental urgings. To an en-
ployer they are worth at most S2j .
week and the kind of work they do Of
fers small chance of advancement.
They do not wish to marry because
they know that 20 support a wife and
several children on $50 a week means
a barren existence of burdensome re
sDonsibilities. They thus form a dis
contonted class.
When will the crime wave in thi-
country cease?
I'm our opinion. just as soon as the
nations successful business men join
in a really serious. sincere. intelligen:
and determined effort to stop it.
MANY business men who now
think they are helping to stop it are
really merely lending their names tn
committees. contributing small
amounts of money to superficial local
activities. and joining in occasional
public discussions which get nowhere.
Our suggestion to business men
who sincerely wish to curb crime are /:
Urge upon local judges and district
attor-Sys the grave need of severe
sure and immediate sentences, and
take issue vigorously with all misguid-
ed people whom you hear expending
morbid sentiment and sympathy with
wrong-dOers.

P OL|Cy HELPS
SUPPORT Of
FAMILY
Accident Insurance Real
Protector Even During
Breadwinner's Life.

First, what is accident insurance:
Or better. what does accident insur-
ance cover? Fire insurance covers the
loss of sum Of money invested in
property destroyed by fire. Liability
insurance covers the loss of a sum of
money which one may be called upon
to pay for injury inflicted upon an
other person. Burglary insurance COW
ers the loss of a sum of money by
theft.
These are but few of the many
ways in which Herff & Eifler can
cover various losses by insurance.
But the interest centers OIL what
loss is covered by accident insurance.
Life insurance. or insurance against
death. is necessary. But. death occurs
only once. while disability from ac-
cidental injury, sickness and disease,
is comparatively frequent during the
life of the average person. These dis
abilities often entail much hardship
and severe financial losses unless pro-
lection has been provided.
PROVIDE FOR PRESENT.
The prudent man insures his life
against death in order that, when he
is gone, provision may be made for
those dependent upon him. But, unless
he also insures his time against loss
from sickness or accidental injury, he
fails to provide for present, pressing
needs and frequently impairs or makes
impossible the support of himself, his
family or the other insurance.
Accident and health insurance pol
cies make no guarantee that you will
not become i'll. They will not protect
you against the accident hazards to
which YOU are daily subjected. But.
they will. with absolute surety. guar
antee that your un-productive time
from accident or illness will be com
pensatcd in whatever amount you,
yourself decide.
LARGE BUSINESS.
Human life is provided with perfect
protection only when insured against
the contingencies of death, accidental
bodily injury and sickness or disease.
Herff & Eifler is an old insurance
firm in San Antonio. 1t is one of the
strongest and most reliable firms in
this section of the country. Mr.. Eifler
has been engaged in the insurance
business for number of years and is
therefore familiar with every phase Of
the work. According TO Mr.. Eifler this
company has done an exceptionally
large volume of business during the
past year.
