We must admit that 62.69% is fairly high for a society such as ours, and it will probably continue to increase due to aging membership. This one fact alone makes it imperative that we try to write much more new business to offset the aging of the surviving members and to replace the premiums lost by termination due to death. INTEREST EARNINGS The net interest earnings, based upon the formula of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, for the past four years were as follows: 1959 3.38% 1960 3.42% 1961 3.61% 1962 3.68% Net Investment Income after deduction of investment expenses amounted to $1,056,632.01 in 1962, $1,013,- 433.69 in 1961, $936,797.98 in 1960 and $902,345.89 in 1959. Interest earnings exceeded interest requirements in each year. PAID-UP AT AGE 80 (Point #91 of the September, 1959 XXIV Regular Convention) RESOLUTION “RESOLVED that, there should be transferred to the William Penn Fund, a sufficient amount, from the profits on the sale of securities, after the closing of the Annual Statement for the year 1959, and that, from this Fund, commencing January 1, 1961, the dues should be waived of those members who are 80 years of age or older and who have paid their dues for 40 consecutive years, so long as this Fund makes this possible on an unguaranteed basis, provided that the Pennsylvania Insur­ance Department approves same, and IT IS RESOLVED FURTHER that, if the Pennsylvania Insurance Department does hot approve this resolution, then the present custom of waiving dues, upon proper application, of those members who attain Age 85, will remain in effect.” This matter was referred to the Pennsylvania Insurance Department by the Board of Directors. A letter from Mr. Thomas R. Balaban, Deputy Insurance Commissioner in I960, was received and is hereby reprinted.
