Proper Method

The Insurance Times of New York having reprinted the greater part of Mr. Sprague's paper On the proper method of estimating the liability of a Life Insurance Company under its policies, and Mr. Makeham's letter which appeared in the same number of this Journal, the Hon. Elizur Wright has thought it desirable to explain the aim of the American Insurance Law in a letter to that periodical, from which we make the following extract. We do this not only on account of the general interest with which Mr. Wright's views will be read, but still more because he corrects a misconception as to the object and purpose of the American Life Insurance legislation.—Ed. J. I. A.

New Policies

There are so many phases of the problem of blood pressure that I shall limit myself to dealing with a recent investigation of the mortality on lives accepted as “standard risks” by the New York Life Insurance Company.The experience investigated was that of new policies issued from 1925 to 1936, inclusive, observed from entry until the anniversaries of the policies in 1937. The investigation was by policies and was divided into two groups, (a) those in which there was no impairment, and (b) those in which there appeared minor impairments but not of sufficient moment to place the policyholders in a substandard group. The expected deaths were obtained according to the company's standard experience for the same years of issue and exposure. The total number of policies emerging by death was 9552.
