Extract from Report made on the Examination ot The Mutual Benefit Lite by David Parks Tackier Consulting Actuary for the New Jersey In surance Department. “The surplus is thus practically #7,600,000, out of total assets over #93,- 500,000. It should be remarked that this surplus belongs to all partici pating policy holders, and does not include deferred dividend accumula tions for particular classes of policyholders, as the company has never issued policies upon any tontine or deferred dividend plan. “Critical inspections of the minutes of the board of trustees show that they gave constant and careful attention to the affairs of their trust. The office books and papers, together with all the observations of your ex aminers. have satisfied tlunn that there is no improper expenditure, and that the company is managed primarily, and apparently exclusively, in the interest of its policyholders.” For rates and snecimen policy, see * - JONES J.
