Respectfully submitted, Frank J. Radvany Secretary of the Board Continued from page 2, column 4 Actuarial Comments distinguished from the very special one-time conversion offer), the premiums are a bit higher than for the conversions, but not much — $6.00 per $1,000 at age 35, $8.00 per $1,000 at age 45. Also, the Association must charge a one­time certificate fee of $50 for each certificate — regardless of the amount of insurance. Not counting the $50 cer­tificate fee, the cash value one year after issue will exactly equal the premium paid. There­fore, by the end of one year, if things get tough financially, you can get back all of your premium except the certificate fee. Even during the first year, you could get back nearly all of it. Here are some premium rates per $1,000, not counting the certificate fee: Age$000 Age$000 15$ 57 55$310 25 85 65 448 35 133 75 608 45 206 85 758 Do you have small children or grandchildren? Would you like to give them lifetime protection at a small cost? Or provide them with a cash boost when college time comes around? Here are the basic premium rates per thousand (add the $50 certificate fee). Age Rate Age Rate 0$ 33 3$ 35 1 33 4 36 2 34 5 38 For $380 you can provide a new-born child with $10,000 of lifetime protection. At college time (age 18) the child will have a guaranteed cash value of $620. Also, if the presently in­tended scale is maintained, the paid up additions will have a cash value of $400 — a total of $1,020. If instead of taking the value at age 18, the child lets the cer­tificate remain in force, the paid up additions will continue to grow. In the extreme case, if the child lives to age 100, under the present dividend scale the total amount of insurance will then be $181,740. All for a single premium of $380. Sound impossible? Well, it is not. The secret lies in two things: today’s low mortality rates and the power of com­pound interest. The Single Premium Whole Life plan is built upon a foundation of 9% interest. The reserves and cash values are based upon a guaranteed rate of 6%. In addi­tion, the non-guaranteed dividends are based upon 3% of the accumulating cash values. Together they give you a real opportunity. If you can spare a one-time lump sum premium, you can do a great thing for the babies in your family or for your other dependents — and for your own sense of “well done”. Once purchased, the insurance will remain in force, doing its job without taking anything out of your future budgets. How much can you spare? One time? Fr. James Chepponis Ordained in Pittsburgh Branch 8005 PITTSBURGH, PA — Branch 8005 is especially proud to an­nounce the recent ordination of James Chepponis as a priest in the Diocese of Pittsburgh. Ceremonies were held May 11 Continued on page 13, column 1 Red, White & Blue! Gulf of Tonkin . .. It’s endured The Berlin Crisis, The Bay of Pigs, and Water­gate; waved proudly above the marching feet of soldiers as Paris was liberated in 1944 — been desecrated under the trampling feet of political pro­testers during a Chicago con­vention in 1968. For a decade, not too long ago, it was considered un­sophisticated, naive, not “cool,” to pay the proper respect deserved these colors. It was “square” to ponder, to honor, what they represented. Even now, to some, they’re just an inconvenience to be tolerated as they rise at the beginning of a football game. Ironically, they seem to mean more in the hearts of those, who’ve sought their sheltered shores than to many of the natives born under the freedoms they stand for. Your flag ... my flag . . . our flag. More blue than the sky it flies in, red as the blood of those who’ve died to protect it, white as the crosses and Stars of David under which those dead are buried. Changing through the years as each new State of the Union has added its star — never changing as a symbolic determination of purpose and resolve. A glowing portrait of freedom, equally, for those who would revere or defile it. So this June 14, this Flag Day — or Memorial Day, or In­dependence Day — or even the next time you happen to glance up and see “Old Glory” ruffling in the breeze, take just a mo­ment to really look at it, to weigh — good and bad — what we’ve endured and enjoyed as a na­tion over the last two centuries. Then ask yourself this simple question: “Under what other nation’s flag would I rather live? Loren W. Harrington P.O.
