New assurances totalled $40443.- 831, an increase of almost $1,000, 000 over I938. Total assurances at the end of 1937were$4l1,l41,459,an increase of $12,641,886 for the year. Asets were $120,700,000, an in- crease of $7,728,000. The Associa- tion continued its conservative practice of caxrylngl them into the balance sheet. at t eir book val- ues. which are $2,500,000 less than their actual market values, as as- certained by the. federal insurance department. R. S. Waddle. vice-presldent,| was chairman end delivered Presl- dent C. B. Macdonaidks address in f the absence of the latter through ~ illness, Mr. Macdonald pointed out the substantial increase in every phase of operation, not on] in 1937, but over the last deco e. In the last 10 years, business in force had increased 159 per cent; assets, 210 per cent; total income 154 per cent; payments to policyholders, 221. per cent; dividends to policy- holders, 154 per cent; and surplus 134 per cent. Commenting on present; low in- terest rates for long-term loans. Mr. Macdonald warned that in- vestment ln such securities would present uncomfortable problems in the future. “Interest rates will not always remain at their present low levels. andwhen they rise, the securities having long-term maturities will show heavy capital depreciation," he predicted, explaining that Con- federation Life was meeting this problem by shortening the matur- ities of its portfolio by purchases and exchanges-of shorter- term securities. One-third of all Con- federation Life bonds will mature in l0 years, and two-thirds in 15 years, he stated. Bonds and debentures comprise 83.29 per cent of assets. Five years ; ago this group comprised less than 50 per cent. Investment in bonds has increased over $30,000,000 Gov- ernment and municipal bonds ac- count for 53 per cent corporation bonds amounting to 10 per cent.
