» 5 be Per The Equitable. = LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES

reports on its progress in. serving human needs

IHE PURPOSE of The Equitable is to serve human needs —to enable policyholders through co-operative action to achieve security to a degree that would not be possible through individugl effort dione.

The Equitable during the past year continued to grow in usefulness to the American public and to the war economy of the nation. A total of $609,026,000 of new Equitable life insurance was purchased in 1944. This volume is a tribute to the foresight and patriotism of a large proportion of the American people, who are refraining from spending their money needlessly and instead are putting it aside for the future.

It is likewise a tribute to’ the work. of Equitable agents in carrying the story of life insurance and its benefits to the public. Most people, even though they realize their need for the protection that life insurance provides, tend to defer its purchase and must be persuaded to do that which will mean much to their welfare and happiness,

The aggregate of Equitable protection at the year-end was $8,897,754,000—a record.

Benefit payments to policyholders and their families averaged $26,000 an hour throughout the past year, a total of $230,992,000. .

The increase in dividend rates on most types of policies, put into effect last year, is being continued for 1945, thus maintaining the low net cost of Equitable protection. An aggregate of $43,801,000 is scheduled for distribution to policyholders as dividends during 1945.

The Equitable continued to grow in financial strength during 1944, assets increasing $318,329,000, a larger gain than in any previous year. Total assets are $3,507,983,000, Holdings of United States Government obligations have iflcreased to $1,568,317,. 000, representing polidyholder funds directly helping to speed vietory. In addition to

the purchase of Government securities, The Equitable made diversified investments ip corporate securities in 1944 at an average yield of 3.51%.

Life insurance is serving well in the war. It has extended and enlarged its protection of the American Family. It has helped those in distress. It has encouraged thrift and combated inflation. It has contributed greatly to the financing of the war.

In the peacetime future of our country; life insurance will be an equally dynamic factor. While continuing as a bulwark of family security, its investment funds will help industry speed reconversion and exe pand production, thereby providing jobs.

Life insurance investment funds have played an important role in the development of America. What life insurance has done in the past to aid the national economy, it will do on an even vaster scale and with larger inspiration in the America of tomorrows.
