1885. NEW ZEALAND.

FRIENDLY SOCIETIES (EIGHTH REPORT, BY THE REGISTRAR OF).

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly pursuant to " The Friendly Societies Act, 1882," Section 5, Subsection (8).

REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1884. In addition to the ordinary work of the year, the compilation of the statistics of sickness and mortality experience, &c, among New Zealand Friendly Societies for the quinquennium 1878-82, was begun and completed in 1884. A full explanation, of the method employed in this tabulation is given below. As affording corroborative proof of the necessity for the repeated advice which has been given on the subject of a graduated and sufficient scale of contributions, the Registrar invites the attentive consideration of societies to the importance attached by an eminent authority to such a scale as an essential principle of safety. His remarks, moreover, on the question are in special reference to a New Zealand society. The Nelson District of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, Manchester Unity, wishing to have the opinion of an English valuer as to its position, arranged with Mr. Reuben Watson, actuary to their order, to make a valuation of the district. His report was received last year, the valuation being made, as desired by the society, on a 5-per-cent. basis. Nevertheless, in the case of each lodge in the district there is shown a serious deficiency, and, as the weight of Mr. Watson's authority will perhaps carry conviction to some who have been inclined to dispute the arguments, and disregard the warnings of the Friendly Societies' Valuers resident in the colony, extracts are given from this additional and independent source. Nelson Lodge.- —"The general principles on which the lodge has been established are unsound. A very low rate of contribution has been charged, and no attention appears to have been paid to the increased value of the liabilities of those members who have been farthest advanced in life at the date of admission to the lodge. The high rate of interest derived from the invested funds seems to have had a misleading effect, and led to expectations which cannot possibly be fulfilled. It is not likely that the advantages which colonial friendly societies reap from the ample returns they derive from invested funds can continue for all time, and friendly societies should not make future promises which depend on the permanent realization of such high-interest rates. It cannot be intended to mislead, or in any way betray into false and ruinous expectations either the rising or any future generation. That, however, will be the effect of continuing to promise present benefits for present contribution rates. While young men continue to join and some secede, the consequences of insufficient contribution payments are concealed in a great measure ; but, as old age comes on, the errors so committed become exposed, but the consequences of them fall on to the wrong shoulders, and unintended injustice is the result. There can be no doubt that the future safety of this important lodge demands a readjustment of the contribution rates by graduated and equitable tables." Howard Lodge. —"There is evidence of able and careful management, but this of itself will not compensate for the unreasonably low contribution rate, nor will it make amends for the incomprehensible error of admitting members at various ages without any regard to the liabilities they bring on to the lodge. The adoption of a properly-graduated table of contributions for future members is an imperative necessity." Travellers' Best Lodge.- —" It is calculated that 5 per cent, will always be yielded by the whole of the funds and future contributions of the members. That rate has not been obtained during the last quinquennial period, and present investments do not seem to justify the expectation that 5 per cent, will be realized on the average in future transactions. The contributions are altogether insufficient, and disastrous failure is threatened; and this may come at a time when, from long-con-tinued affliction and natural decay, the assistance of the lodge is most required by the members. The lodge should adopt a properly-graduated table, for the system of equal rates of contribution, I—H. 5.

H.—s.

without regard to age and liabilities at the time of admission, is both unfair and unjust, and would not be tolerated in any society wherein there is a fair comprehension of the partiality of the effects it produces. To promise present benefits for the rate of contributions which members now pay is to invite a condition of ruin and decay." General Cameron Lodge. —" The principles on which this lodge has been established are not in accord with those principles of assurance which meet with approval for their correctness, nor do they give fair promise of future success. The estimate of 5 per cent, interest may, or may not, for a long time be realized on the investments; but even with such success a solvent condition cannot be attained under existing regulations. The contributions are most unreasonably insufficient, and permanent stability is made impossible." Mansion of Peace Lodge. —"Even if this rate (5 per cent.) is quite certain, the contributions are really too low to be permanently relied tipon as being factors competent to the production of the benefits promised." A committee was appointed to report on Mr. Watson's valuation. Their report, it is satisfactory to notice, recognizes the force of Mr. Watson's arguments; and the society has since registered an amendment of its rules, having adopted Mr. Watson's advice in respect of a graduated scale for future members, and having raised the rate of contribution for members already on the roll. The Grand Master of the district, in his address, thus refers to this matter : " The general public are now well versed in society statistics ; and if two societies are working in a community, the one having a properly-graduated table of contributions and benefits, while the other can only say that its tables are the result of guesswork, the general public will be found supporting that society which can show that it has been guided by experience in the preparation of its tables." One thing, at least, is sure : the more this important matter is discussed, and the better the principles of a sound basis for friendly societies are understood, the more rapidly will come the ruin of those societies which refuse to be guided by experience in the adoption of scales of contributions and benefits. Among the amendments of rules, for registry of which application was made during the year, one which was passed by the Fountain of Friendship Lodge, M.U.1.0.0.F., established at Auckland, is worthy of special mention. The lodge has added to its rules one dealing with the distribution of any surplus which, after each quinquennial valuation, the valuer may recommend as being available for division. Under this rule each member at the date of valuation is to be credited with a share of such available surplus under a fixed scale graduated in accordance with his length of membership, and his share may be applied for his benefit in various ways, according to his requirements. The matter is one of great importance, as being closely connected with that of sufficient rates of contribution, and is therefore appended to this report (Schedule II.). Perhaps, were a similar rule, which is capable of considerable modification, commonly adopted, members of friendly societies would not be unwilling to contribute even a little more than the safe minimum, as they would be entitled, at the end of each quinquennium, to share in the surplus arising from the specially-favour-able experience of their society, or from the realization of a higher rate of interest than that anticipated, or from any other cause which had contributed to the prosperity of the period. Vouchers for claims made by secretaries for furnishing statistics of sickness, mortality, &c, were passed during the year, amounting to £113 2s. 6d. In answer to the circular which was issued from this office to friendly societies, notifying that payment for this special information had been authorized by the Government, the Otago District, M.U.1.0.0.F., declined, on behalf of its branch secretaries, to receive payment for the trouble involved in making out the returns asked for, on the ground that '' the supplying such information is of supreme importance to the members of friendly societies, and that the value of the annual reports presented to Parliament, containing the sickness, mortality, and other experience of societies throughout the colony, are of continually-increasing importance and usefulness in the working of friendly societies." This is an exceedingly liberal and unselfish view to take of the question. Most secretaries, it would appear, prefer to be paid for their services in this respect, arguing, doubtless, that their work is asked for in the interests of friendly societies generally, and that it ought not tobe expected that such work should be gratuitously performed. REGISTRATION OF SOCIETIES AND BRANCHES. During the year the total number of registrations was 40, distributed as follows: — Manchester Unity Independent Order of Odd Fellows ... 2 Lodges.

Appended to this report are seven tables, compiled from the returns for 1883, showing the progress during that year as respects both membership and funds; the receipts and expenditure both of the Sick and Funeral Fund and of the Management Fund; the nature of the investments, with their respective rates of interest, &c. The number of societies and branches (exclusive of central bodies) dealt with in these tables is 243, distributed according to orders, as follows : — Manchester Unity Independent Order of Odd Fellows ... 105 Lodges. Independent Order of Odd Fellows (American) ... ... 10 Lodges. National Independent Order of Odd Fellows ... ... 2 Lodges. Ancient Order of Foresters ... ... ... ... 69 Courts.

New Zealand Hibernian Catholic Benefit Society ... ... 5 Branches. Protestant Alliance Friendly Society of Australasia ... 6 Lodges. Railway Employes'Benefit Societies ... ... ... 2. Isolated Local Society ... ... ... ... ... 1. The number of members of the above-mentioned lodges* was 18,843. The total funds amounted to £232,321 3s. 9d., of which £205, 356 7s. 6d. belonged to the Sick and Funeral Fund. This gives an average of £12 6s. 7d. per member in respect of the total funds, and £10 18s. in respect of the Sick and Funeral Fund, and shows, as compared with the previous year, an increase in the former of 4s. 6d., and in the latter of 4s. 9d. The numerical progress, mortality, and sickness are shown in Table 11. The total number of admissions during 1883 was 3,271, of lapses (including transfers—styled " clearances " —toother lodges) 1,778, and of deaths 133, giving a net increase of 1,360. The following table gives a comparative view of the numbers of lodges varying in membership from under 50 to over 400:—

The average number of members in a lodge was 77'5. The number of deaths of members for the year was 133, or 7'32 per 1,000 members, as against 6-92 in the year 1882. The number of deaths of members' wives was 82, or 4-51 per 1,000 members, as against 3-65 in 1882. The number of members sick was 2,531, or 13-9 per cent.—a percentage which has varied very little during three consecutive years. The total amount of sickness, 16,465 weeks 4 days, gives an average of rather more than 0-9 week per member, and of 6-5 weeks per member sick—percentages almost identical with those of 1882. The sickness experience for 1882 and 1883, when classified so that acute attacks may be distinguished from sickness more or less chronic, is divided as follows : —

* The word " lodge " is to be understood throughout as embracing all synonymouß terms as court, tent, &c, asused respectively in the various affiliated orders.

The number of lodges which had sickness experience extending beyond the first six months of continuous sickness was 32-10 percent, in 1883, as against 29-41 per cent, in 1882 ; and the number which had sickness experience extending beyond twelve months was 23-87 per cent., as against 21-32 per cent, in 1882. Table 111. shows the number of members classified according to age and conjugal condition. The proportion of married and unmarried was very nearly as 9 to 5, the married members comprising 64-33 of the total number. From the columns relating to age it will be seen that 823 or 4-37 per cent, of the members were under 20 years of age, 6,948 or 36-87 per cent, were between 20 and 30, 6,248 or 33-16 per cent, between 30 and 40, 3,733 or 19-81 per cent, between 40 and 50, 761 or 4-04 per cent, between 50 and 60, 124 or -66 per cent, between 60 and 70, and 17 or -09 per cent, over 70, while the ages of 189 or 1-00 per cent, of the members could not be ascertained. These percentages vary very slightly from those of the previous year. Table IV. deals with the Benefit Funds of the various societies, giving the particulars of the annual receipts and expenditure, together with the amount of the fund in each lodge at the beginning and end of the year. The contributions to this fund amounted to £24,506 13s. 4d., being an average of £1 7s. per member. This average is nearly the same as that of the four previous years. The receipts from entrance and clearance fees were £1,649 14s. 10d., or 10s. Id. per member admitted. The average for the year 1882 was 10s. sd. The total amount paid as sick benefits during the year was £13,175 15s. Id., or 14s. 6d. per member, and £5 4s. Id. per member»sick, as compared with 14s. 9d. and £5 6s. 2d. in the year 1882; and the average weekly pay was 165., showing a slight decrease as compared with that of the previous year. The funeral benefits amounted to £2,962 9s. 9d. The amount of levies to the District Funeral Funds was £3,977 3s. Id., or an average of 4s. 7d. per member in those societies which have a District Funeral Fund. In 1882 the average was 4s. 6d. The total receipts, of the Sick and Funeral Funds were £41,246 12s. 2d., or £2 ss. sd. per member, as against £2 9s. lOd. in the previous year. The total payments were £23,396 18s. lid., or £1 ss. 9d. per member; the expenditure, therefore, was 57 per cent, of the receipts as compared with slightly over 50 per cent, in 1882. Table V. exhibits the transactions of the Medical and Management Expenses Fund. The total amount of expenditure from this fund for all the lodges was £31,116 9s. 5d., distributed as follows : — £ s. d. Medical attendance and medicine ... ... ... 17,205 5 11 Expenses of management (inclusive of levies to central bodies) 9,755 11 0 Other payments ... ... ... ... 4,155 12 6 Total ... ... ... ... £31,116 9 5 This gives an average of 18s. lid. per member for medical attendance, &c, and 10s. 9d. for expenses of management, an increase of lid. and a saving of 7d. respectively upon the previous year's averages. Table VI. shows the distribution of the societies' funds as on the 31st December, 1883. Of the total amount, £130,233 was placed at interest, and the value of land and buildings was set down at £80,422. Cash in hand amounted to £15,261, and £6,405 was the estimated value of goods, regalia, debts, &c. The following is a statement of funds and assets as at the end of the year:— Funds. £ Assets. £ Sick and Funeral Funds ... ... 205,356 Investments at interest ... ... 130,233 Medical and Management Expenses Value of land and buildings ... 80,422 Funds ... ... ... 20,420 Cash not bearing interest ... ... 15,261 Other funds and property ... ... 6,545 Value of goods, regalia, &c. ... 5,688 Other assets ... ... ... 717 Total ... ... £232,321 Total ... ... £232,321 Table VII. shows how the funds at interest were placed, with the rates per cent, earned by the various investments. £8,363 was in the Post Office Savings Bank, and £29,225 in other banks. The average interest on the latter was 5J per cent.. £1,202 was on deposit with companies, &c, at an average of 6 t 9q per cent.; £77,967 was on mortgage of freehold property, yielding on an average 8 per cent. ; £7,712 was invested in Government and Municipal debentures, at an average of 6f per cent.; £4,482 in shares in companies, &c, yielding about 7-j^per cent.; and £1,282 on securities other than those above mentioned, at an average of 6J per cent. The average rate on the total funds at interest was 6 T % per cent.

* 1.e., sickness which had not yet lasted more than six months since the commencement of the attack. t Sickness which had already lasted more than six months, but not more than twelve months. For such sickness societies usually make a weekly allowance at a reduced rate. J Sickness which had already been protracted beyond twelve months. When illness is protracted beyond this point, the weekly allowance is usually still further reduced.

VALUATIONS. During the year 1884 ten complete valuations were returned to the Registrar. A summary table, showing the results of these valuations, is appended to this report (Schedule VIII.). It will be noticed that each complete valuation shows a deficiency, and the causes assigned by the valuers, as productive of this unfortunate state of affairs, are the same as they have stated previously from time to time in their reports : the principal being insufficiency of contributions, and negligence in regard to the investment of funds. Whatever advantages are possessed by friendly societies in this colony, in respect of the health and longevity of members, as well in respect of the high rates of interest obtainable, it would appear that far too high an estimate of these advantages was taken when societies were first established in New Zealand; and, although many societies have since raised their scale of contribution, a long time must elapse before a sound position can be regained, even under favourable circumstances and with the most careful management; but when the valuation reports from year to year still continue in many instances to show negligence in regard to investment of funds, as well as inadequate contributions for the benefits promised, the deficiency which results is not only not to be wondered at, but must be looked for as the natural consequence of the position. STATISTICS FOR THE FIVE YEARS 1878-82. Method of Quinquennial Compilation. —The sickness experience and other particulars for each year of the quinquennium relating to each member having been transferred from the annual returns to his card of membership, the cards for each lodge were sorted in order of members' year of birth, and the particulars were tabulated in schedules, being grouped in quinquennial age-periods, as shown in the tables given below. The results for each lodge thus obtained were compared with the annual returns, and where there existed any discrepancy, owing to incorrect or insufficient information as to the numbers of membership in any year, which would appreciably affect the subsequent calculations, the schedules were excluded from the second tabulation. In consequence of this a considerable amount of experience had to be sacrificed, but, as accuracy is of primary importance, the loss, though much to be regretted, was unavoidable. A second tabulation was then made from those schedules which had been found correct, in which the particulars of each age-period were grouped under four heads, namely: (1) Lodges in large towns (population 10,000 and upwards); (2) lodges in small towns (population from 2,000 to 10,000) ; (3) lodges in country districts; and (4) lodges in mining districts. Summary totals of these groups in each period were made, and the totals from these summaries gave the final results of all the reliable information which had been received for each year of the quinquennium. By the addition of these totals for the separate years the totals for the quinquennium were obtained. From these totals, again, the averages, &c, given in the accompanying tables were deduced. In Schedule V. are given the statistics relating to membership and to the sickness and mortality experience of those lodges which were included in the tabulation for each year of the period under review. It is to be observed that the variation in total membership in the respective years is the result of several independent factors. (1.) There is, of course, in every year fluctuation in nearly every lodge. The general effect of this throughout the quinquennium was an increase in membership, although in the year 1880, a time of considerable depression in the colony, a decrease took place. (2.) It has already been explained that in each year the experience of many lodges was rejected from the tabulation on account of inaccuracies. (3.) Some lodges were established, and some previously established were registered during the quinquennium. (4.) A few lodges lapsed during the quinquennium. All these causes, in varying combination, affected the totals of each year. The number of years of life under observation during the quinquennium— i.e., the totals of the averages of the separate years —has been calculated on the assumption that each member admitted, withdrawing, or dying during the five years was under observation for six months, on an average, of the calendar year during which he was admitted, withdrew, or died. In all the accompanying tables the ages of members are their ages as at the commencement of the calendar year. The summary for the quinquennium 1878-82 of admissions, withdrawals, deaths, sickness, and years of life under observation, classified according to ageperiods, is as follows : —

With the tabulated results deduced from the data here presented are shown, under their respective heads, for the purpose of comparison, the results for the quinquennium 1873-77, published in a former report (1881): —■ 1. Ages of Members. —The registration during the quinquennium 1878-82 of new lodges, and other causes already referred to, have had the effect of counteracting the regular progress of numbers from year to year, such as is shown in several of the age-periods for the quinquennium 1873-77, where the same lodges throughout furnished the particulars of experience. The following table shows the percentage of members in quinquennial age-periods for the decade 1873-82 :—

2. Admissions. —The number of members admitted during the quinquennium 1873-77 were 3,719; during the quinquennium 1878-82, 4,285 : and the following table shows the percentage of admissions, in quinquennial age-periods, for the quinquennium 1873-77, for the quinquennium 1878-82, and for the decade 1873-82 :—

3. Secessions, i.e., Total Withdrawals less Transfers (Clearances). —In the calculation of rates of secession for the quinquennium 1873-77, as given in the report for the year 1881, the result was obtained by dividing the number of secessions, multiplied by 100, by the number of years of life under observation. Now that the data are increasing, and in view of the time when the rate of secession may be calculated for each year of life, it has been considered desirable to adopt a different method, whereby the divisor is increased by half the number of secessions, the result showing the probable rate of secessions during the year among the members at risk.

4. Mortality. —The experience is yet too small to be of value in estimating the death-rate at the higher ages. The following table gives, side by side with the New Zealand Friendly Societies' experience, the rates in the whole population of England and Wales (Dr. Farr's "English Life Table, No. 3, Males ") in the life assurance companies forming the basis of the Em Table, in the middle year of each quinquennial age-period, and also, calculated in quinquennial age-periods, the rate in the Ancient Order of Foresters, England, for the years 1871-75 : —

It will be seen that the New Zealand rates compare very favourably with the English experience. It was suggested in the former quinquennial report that the fact of New Zealand possessing "a shifting population" greatly tended to produce this result. Perhaps also may be added other considerations. It is not too much to say that the people in the colony generally, and still more the members of friendly societies in particular, are picked lives. Even allowing that members at the time of admission are not, on an average, more healthy than their brethren in England, yet it will hardly be denied that, owing to more favourable surroundings —that is, speaking generally, more healthful occupations, a better climate, and the means of procuring more easily and in greater abundance the necessaries of life—the social condition of, say, 1,000 members admitted into friendly societies in the colony ten years ago, and still remaining members, is, to-day, very much superior to the social condition of the same number admitted at the same time into societies in England and still remaining in them; and this advantage in social position must have a marked effect on the rate of mortality. The death-rate of the members' wives cannot be calculated for the various ages of life, as the requisite information as to their age is, in a large percentage of cases, unobtainable. A table showing the rate of mortality of wives per 1,000 members living is given below.*

5. Sickness. —The percentages and averages, as shown in the following table, for the ages 20 to 50, vary so little in the two quinquennial periods there compared that there is reason to suppose that the percentages and averages for the decade represent approximately the rate of sickness which may be expected in the immediate future. For all ages above 50 the number of years of life under observation is as yet insufficient to give much value to the percentages and averages resulting:—

The percentage of members sick and also the average number of weeks' sickness per member during the decade for the ages 20 to 50 compare favourably with the English experience, whereas the average number of weeks' sickness experienced per member sick is considerably higher among New Zealand societies. This last observation applies especially to the higher ages; and, although, as has been said, it is not safe to rely on deductions made from the limited data, it is most probable that, if there is in the colony a greater average longevity than in England, the sickness experience at the higher ages will show a very considerable comparative increase.

In Table VI. the total sickness experience and also the sickness protracted beyond six months is shown for the societies grouped in respect of localities. In respect of the ages under 50 there is no considerable variation among these groups in the averages for the decade, and that which appears is probably due as much to other causes as to the influence of locality. As yet the statistics of the New Zealand friendly societies are not sufficiently extensive to justify their adoption as a basis of calculation in determining the relative proportion which ought to be maintained in the colony between contributions and benefits, and, until the time arrives when the experience of the past may be safely regarded as a guide for the future, societies will do well not to over-estimate the value of the advantages which they undoubtedly enjoy, but to act upon the advice of those who, possessing actuarial knowledge, are from time to time intrusted by them with the investigation[of their financial position, and who, when they utter warnings, are prompted solely by the desire to protect members from the grievous suffering which would result from the inability at any time on the part of a society to fulfil its engagements. TRADE UNIONS. During the year 1884 the Christchurch Operative Bootmakers' Society and the Dunedin Operative Bootmakers' Union were registered under "The Trade Union Act, 1878," and the registration of the Wellington Licensed Victuallers' Trade Union Association was cancelled at its own request, on the ground that the number of its members had fallen below the minimum number required under the rules. Edmund Mason, Friendly Societies' Registry Office, Registrar of Friendly Societies. 13th August, 1885.
