THOSE
WHO
MAY
VOTE
There
seems
to
be
confusion
in
the
minds
of
many
as
to
who
may
vote
at
the
election
tomorrow.
The
requirements
were
stated
in
the
advertisement
that
was
published
by
the
city.
Any
person
eligible
to
Vote
for
mayor
and
aldermen
may
also
vote
on
this
plebiscite.
This
includes
any
registered
property
owners
in
the
city,
and
also
any
householder
or
Hcenseholder
who
pays
a
tax
and
who
has
registered
at
the
propei4
time
as
a
voter.
The
list
of
voters
may
be
seen
at
the
city
ball
and
only
those
on
the
list
may
vote.
This
will
be
the
last
opportunity
to
state
the
case
for
or
against
a
change
of
policing.

THE
YEAR'S
BUSINESS
REVIEWED
"...
I
think
vou
will
agree
with
me
that
for
a
year
such
as
that
through
which
we
have
fust
passed
the
showing
is
a
remarkably
fine
one.
.jNcw
assurances
of
over
$527,000,000,
and
a
total
in
force
exceeding
$3,000,000,000,
are
figarer
-so
great
as
to
seed
no
emphasis.
...
"The
distribution
of
our
new
business
is
interesting,
Canada
contributed
$101,000,000,
United
States
$2ll
000.000,
Great
Britain
$S0,U0O,Ot)t)
and
the
rest
of
the
world
$85,000,000.
Our
mortality
experience
has
been
even
more
fnour-able
than
that
of
last
year,
the
claims
being
but
M.3
per
cent,
of
the
expected,
against
$7.6
per
cent,
in
1930.
"Since
business
wms
commenced
in
1871
we
have
paid
out
in
benefits
$594,000,000.
Last
year
alone
our
payments
were
$93,000,000,
an
amount
exceeding
the
total
assurances
written
in
1922.
We
may
well
rejoice
over
the
magnitude
and
importance
of
the
social
service
which
the
Company
is
performing.
"During
the
past
year
life
assurance
has
been
tested
as
perhaps
never
before,
and
it
ha
withstood
the
trial
triumphantly.
So
far
as
I
am
aware
not
one
life
company
on
the
continent
has
had
to
close
iu
doors,
a
wonderful
record.
In
Canada
we
can
claim
with
pride
that
even
siocc
Confederation
not
one
Dominion
licensed
company
has
ever
failed.
"It
will
be
noticed
that
in
addition
to
the
surplus
of
$16,000,000
over
all
liabilities
and
capital
stock,
we
have
a
contingency
reserve
of
14,700,000
to
provide
for
possible
shrinkage
in
mortgages
and
other
real
estate
investments.
Our
reserves
have
been
calcwlttetl
oo
the
same
strong
basis
as
last
yeah
Although
our
investments
fttyable
in
American
currency
greatly
exceed
oar
lubtti-ties
in
that
currency,
we
have
treated
both
as
oo
a
par
taking
no
credit
for
the
premium
on
Amtrcaa,
sands.
Oar
liabilities
under
contracts
in
other
currencies
also
are
included
at
a
total
greater
than
required
at
the
pre
ratling
rates
of
eichange.
"Our
holdings
of
stocks
have
been
valued
on
the
basis
hid
flown
by
the
Dominion
Department
of
Insurance,
which
is
practically
the
same
as
that
-adopted
fur
all
companies
by
the
National
Convcatioa
w
Insurance
Commissioners
of
the
United
Sates.
"In
new
investments
we
have
favoured
nigh
grade
bonds,
the
yield
on
which
is
new
very
attractive.
Our
purchases
of
Canadian
Government
bonds
during
the
year
amounted
to
$23,000,000.
The
profits
paid
or
allotted
to
policyholders
amounted
to
over
$26,000,000,
or
over
20
per
cent,
of
the
total
annual
premium
income.
"In
the
light
of
these
figures,
the
report
is
indeed
an
excellent
one.
"And
what
of
the
future?
No
one
believes
that
de
depression
will
last
for
ever.
It
is
impossible
to
siv
just
when
the
turn
will
come,
but
with
the
vast
natural
resources
of
this
continent,
and
the
-brains,
eoefgr,
and
actual
weilth
of
its
people,
business
recovery
is
inevitable.
When
prosperity
does
return
no
company
will
share
In
Its
benefits
in
greater
measure
than
our
own."
