On phis basis the families of the Ameri can victims of the epidemic stand to receive ! approximately $120,000,000 form the life companies. While this figure may not be reach ed, life insurance is furnishing a mighty relief fund which will ease the burden of a vast number of people i bereaved by this scourge but not all for unforlunately a large number of , the 42."*,000 victims failed to protect themselves with insurance.

The so-caled “law>’ of morality is not unchangeable. It has its fluctua tions; it ba| its ‘epidemic hazard” '.and its “war hazard” just as fire in surance has its ‘conflagration hazarjl.'
