Figures The Metmpolitan Life Insurance Company presents figures from its Annual Statement for1933 and mal^ comparisons whichshow how the Company has carried on during the five difficult years since 1928 T hroughout a period of almost unparalleled world-wide depression the institution of Life Insurance in America has furnished an example of achievement- that wins admiration wherever it is understood. Between January 1st, 1929 and January 1st, 1934, the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which insures the lives of more than 25,000,000 persons nearly one-fifth of the total populations of the United States and Canada—paid to its policyholders and their beneficiaries more than Two Billion Dollars ($2,000,000,000). During the same period, its policyholders con tributed, through their premium payments, toward the increase of more than One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) in the assets held for future distri bution to themselves and their beneficiaries. After payment,during that period,of more than Four Hundred and Fifty Million Dollars ($4^,000,000) by way of dividends to policyholders, the Com pany’s surplus was increased by more than One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000). These figures, of one company alone, are striking evidence of the reliance which the people of the United States and Canada place on the security and protection of life insurance. Life Insurance is the most effective an¥satisfa^ry means of providing for the future of one’s self and one’s dependents.
