MONTREAL STATEMENT FOR 1931 "... I think rou will agree with rac that for a jesr such as that through which we hate just passed the showing is a remarkably fine one. "New assurances of over $527,000,000, and a total in force exceeding $3,000,000,000, are figures so great as to need no emphasis. The distribution of our new business is interesting. Canada contributed $101,000,000, United States $291,-000,000, Great Dritaio $50,000,000 and the rest of tLe world $85,000,000. Our mortality experience has been een more favour able than that of last year, the claims being but 54.3 per cent, of the expected, against 57.6 per cent, in 1930. "Since business was commenced in 1871 wc hate 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 its doors, a wonderful record. In Canada we can claim with pride that even since 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 $4,700,000 to provide for possible shrinkage in mortgages and other real estate PI; STRENGTH Assets T-. - ' ls7l4 . $63,000 - ' ' .

Although our investments payable in American currency greatly exceed our liabui ties in that currency, we hate treated both as on a par taking no credit for the premium oa American fundi Our liabilities under contract! in other currencies alsc are included at a total greater than required at the pre railing rates of exchange. "Our holdings of stocks have been valued on the basis laid down by the Dominion Department of Insurance, which is practically the same as that adopted for ail companies by the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners of the United States. "In new investments we have favoured high grade bonds, the yield on which is now 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 tout 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 the depression will last for ever. It is impossible to sav just when the turn will come, but with the vast natural resources of this cootinent, and the brains, energy, and actual wealth of its people, business recovery is inevitable When prosperity does return no company will share o its benefits in greater measure than our own."
