Sun Life iloail A Discusses Policies 0f ‘State Operation

MONTREAL, Feb. 84kt; op- eration of life assurance is no new; it has been tried in different countries and has not. been a suc- cess. Arthur B. Wood, president and managing director of the Sun Life of Canada, mods this com- ment here tode as he presented the Com city's rd annual report to policy older . Mr. Wood was referring to the plans of so-called political reformers whose avowed aim is to abolish the existing ec- onomic system and replace it by a socialistic state, In our country the Governmental annuity scheme has proved itself to be not self- supporting. Expenses of it; r- ation are notoelng chargedaga nst it and, in addition, it costs about two million dollars a year of tux- payers‘ money to kce it going.

Mr. Wood also poin d out that Stats Insurance had been “tied in Great Britain where, after more than co years of effort, only 12.000 contracts were in force, and in

b9 to

i020 the scheme was discontinued. In New Zealand, a country which is ‘ ‘ referred to as an out- standing example of the applica- tion of the socislistic system, the Government, after vigorous oper- ation of n. state insurance depart- ment over many years, ha; secured only about 20 per cent of the total life guanine busirlienr of” the coun , s remn ng per cent being distributed among E- vute competitive companies. e only cone union to be drawn from these examples and others, added Mr. Wood, was that where there is freedom of action and open comp- etition, the people‘; choice is with the private companies.

Mr. Wood, in the course of his remarks. stated that payments to policyholders during ills your ex- ceeded $74,000,000, including ten million dollars in respect of divi-
