Southern Mutual
Policyholders Get
Back $22,000,000
(Continued Fromn Page One)
gan paying dividends in 1856, The
report of the Company showed
ledger assets as of April 30, 1947
of $2,271,638.95. b
The president and treasurer and
secretary were given high praise
for the company’s record during
the year. In his report, reflecting
the status of the Company, Presi
dent Fortson declared: ‘
“The Southern Mutual will be
one hundred years old on the 29th
of December of this year.
“As it approaches its first cen~
tennial -it finds itself in the
soundest and strongest position
of its long and honored career. Its
assets and policynoiders’ reserve
are both gregter in amount and
in proportion to its liabilities than
ever before, while at the same time
its members are securing pro
tection for their property at by
far the lowest premium rates in
its history. §ats S
“Organized and continually op
erated as a purely mutugl com -
pany the Southern Mutual’s only
source of revenue has been the
premiums paid by its members,
and from the earnings from that
portion of the premiums set aside
as a reserve. Since its organization
the Company has received as
premiums twenty-seven and a half
million dollars. It has paid its
members back nine and a half
million dollars to cover their losses,
and twelve and a half million
dollars as annual dividends. In
addition to this it has set aside
two million dollars as & policy
holders’ reserve for contingencies.
Returned To Members
“Thus twenty-two of the twenty
seven and a half millions have
PAGE THREE
been returned to the membfii 4
and two million dollars are held
in trust for their protection over
and above the amount of the re
serve the Company holds for un
earned premiums and outstanding
dividend scrip. i
“The Commpany has lived
through five wars, including the g
Civil War and Reconstruction,
and two major conflagrations
‘which came within fifteen months
of each other. But at no time has
‘its liabilities ever equalled its as
sets. :
} “A more detailed summary of
the Company’s first hundred years
will naturally and more appro
priately be included in the One
Hundredth Annual Report. Suffice
it to say now that ‘this truly re
markable record was largely the
result of the Company’s early
adoption of the policy of cr_-nfini.t{g o
its business to preferred classes 6f
risks, to its foresight in building
up a reserve fund sufficient to
take care of its losses in its two
conflagrations, and to giving its
members protection at the lowest
cost compatible with safety.
Rates Reduced
“The past year witnessed the
largest property losses in the hig~-
tory of fire insurance in thz Unit-
I'ed States, and they have been even
greater in the early months of
ithis year. So far this trend has not
been felt by our Company whose
losses for the past few years have
been comparatively low. However,
in May 1943, fire insurance rates
in this territory were reduced
some 35% to 40% on more
than ‘three-fourths of our Com
pany’s business. This saving to its
, pelicyholders was of course a cor
responding reduction in the
amount of the Company’s incon;‘e.
without any reduction in the
amount at risk. In August 1943
the Company began writing ex
tended coverage insurance, at
rates which are about equal to the
reduction in fire rates, and its
policyholders now pay no more
for both fire and extended cover
age protection than they paid for
fire proteetion alone before May
1943, although this additional
hazard hag substantially increased
the Company’s potential losses. ;
' “Furthermore, due to the high
lcost of construction it now takes
twice as much to pay for a partial
loss as it did a few years ago.
“Taking all these factors into |
consideration the directors decided =
it would be prudent at this time
to declare a 33 1-3% dividend
rather than the 40% paid in recent
' years. This will result in an addi~
tion of $63,500.00 to the Company’s
surplus and still furnish protection
to our members at two thirds the
usual cost.” &
