To Triple New

Variable Annuity Life Insur-
ance Co. expects to more than
triple its volume of new bust
ness in 1862 following an antici-
pated elimination of its diff
culties with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
This was announced today by
VALIC's president, John D.
Marsh, who told stockholders
in the annual report that oper-
ations would be expanded into
additional states in the coming
year.
Continuing negotiations with
the SEC are expected to resolve
the last remaining barrier to
full scale operations, the prob
lem of voting rights which
would be in accord with both
the District of Columbia Life
Insurance Act and the Federal
securities laws, MIR. Marsh de-
clared.
The voting problem is the

from the Supreme Courts de-
cision holding that variable
annuities are subject to SEC
jurisdiction, he added.
During 1861 VALIC sold 469
contracts with new total an

than double the premium
volume in the preceding year;
1862 new business premium vol

Rivera Victory
Surprisingly Easy

, SAN SALVADOR, Il Salvador,
May / (AP)-Ex-Col. Julio A.
Rivera won the presidential
election by q larger vote than
expected despite q ballot boy
colt by rightists and leftists,
his supporters claimed last
night.
With returns in from all but
the larger cities. they reported
he had 23e,191 votes and the
final total would approximate
$4,000. He was unopposed be-
cause rightists and leftists
refused to enter candidates
against him.
Supporters said Sundays to-
tai vote would be about 81 per
cent more than his National
Cancellation Party drew in last
December's election of q Con-
stituent Assembly. Col. Rivera
himself had predicted an In
crease Of only about rs per cent
over the December vote, ~
Even his predicted total Of
$4,000 votes would account for
less than half the $4,000 reg
istered voters In Fl Salvador.
It appeared the opposition's
call for q boycott was effective.

VoIuobLe to 'Softie'

late students to work harder.
Their tests are construed 70
produce this result.
To add to the chance Of
failure, competition for
grades is Stiffer in college.
The student is now iTi classes
made up Of top students from
many high schools.
Is it any wonder the fresh
man is confused?
High school teachers must
keep this In mind. They must
help students gain the resil-
fence required to bounce
back from temporary failure,
show them how to overcome
q low test score and still
make a satisfactory semester
grade.
Parents Share Blame
Parents are not without
guilt in this matter. They
attempt to shield their chill
dren from the difficult times,
the embarrassing situations
and the Illustrations that
they themselves faced.
It is only human that they
wish the children they love
to have q better, smoother
life than theirs. But In pro-
viding it they deprive the
children Of valuable expert
ence.
Parents fail to realize that
they became the people they
are by overcoming problems
which they now try to help
their children to avoid.
When q boy or girl enters
college, he starts out on his
own.
He must make many deci-
sions for hirnself-to study or
go to the ball game, to write
the theme or watch TV, to
do his library work or put 1t
off until tomorrow. Wrong
decisions can bring failure.
A young person who has
always been shielded from
making mistakes finds such
a situation difficult. Parents
and teachers must let chill
dren face difficulties, make
mistakes and gain strength
to overcome them. .
