FRIENDLY SOCIETIES, TRADE-UNIONS, AND INCORPORATED SOCIETIES. THIRTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT BY THE REGISTRAR OF FRIENDLY SOCIETIES, FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31st DECEMBER, 1910.

Presented to l>oth Houses of the General Assembly pursuant to the Friendly Societies Act, 1909, Section 9, and the Trade-unions Act, 1908, Section 16.

The Registrar of Friendly Societies to the Right Hon. the Minister of Finance. Sir,— I have the honour to submit herewith, in accordance with the Act. the annual report of this office for tin , year ended 31st December, L9lO. I have, &c., Robt. E. Hayes, Registrar Friendly Societies and Incorporated Societies. Wellington, 30th June, 1911. NATIONAL PROVIDENCE. The inauguration of the National Provident Fund, in terms of the Act of last session, marks a notable step forward in social legislation towards universal provision for sickness, invalidity, and old-age. The scheme, which is on the voluntary basis, came into operation on the Ist March, 1911, and its liberal benefits must prove attractive to people of small means, particularly those who are not members of friendly societies. The fund does not provide for immediate sickness, medical attendance, or a lump sum at death, the three highly-prized friendly society benefits ; on the other hand, the provision for superannuation at age sixty, and on a contributory basis, will be welcome to a large body of workers, while the ample allowances for maternity and for children indicate the State's recognition of the responsibilities inseparable from the preservation and nurture of its future citizens. The introduction of a provident scheme to compulsorily insure workers against sickness and unemployment in Great Britain has created widespread interest, and, as the measure is to be worked, so far as it directly touches the individual, almost wholly through the friendly societies, it is of importance to discuss the changes that will take place in the present constitution of these organizations should the Bill become law. The apprehensions of friendly-society leaders that the scheme might ignore their work have not been realized, and the most enthusiastic supporter of the efficiency of the administration of these societies must be satisfied with the British Government's official appreciation of their value as a democratic and economic method of carrying on this particular line of social work. The following description of the British proposals is compiled from official sources : — BRITISH NATIONAL SCHEME. Persons included. Compulsory Contributors. —The compulsorily insured are termed " employed contributors," and comprise all manual workers, including domestic servants, but not workers whose labour is of the most casual description—such, for instance, as street-porters, &c. Clerical and similar workers at fixed remuneration exceeding £160 per annum are excluded from the compulsory section.

Contributions. —The benefits on account of these contributors are provided from a weekly contribution on the following basis : — Men employees . . .. .. .. . . . . .. 4d. Women employees .. .. .. .. .. .. .. 3d. The employer .. .. .. .. .. .. 3d. representing seven-ninths and three-fourths respectively of the value, the State providing for the remaining two-ninths and one-fourth of the benefits. Collection.—The employer pays the full contribution of 7d. and 6d. by means of special stamps, which he affixes every week to the employees card, and deducts the latter's portion of 4d. and 3d. from wages. The cards are presented at the Post-office, by whom the amounts are credited to the funds. The rate is the same for all ages up to sixty-five years, but the proportions payable on account of the employer and employee vary if the wages of the worker fall below 15s. per week. In this case the employer is required to make up the difference—as, for instance, a worker earning 9s. a week would himself pay only Id. and his employer 6d. An " employed contributor " is entitled to relief in respect of arrears of contributions during a certain period of unemployment. Voluntary Contributors. —This class comprises all other persons, irrespective of income, who wholly or mainly depend on some regular occupation for their livelihood, and includes any person who has been an " employed contributor " for five years. These contributors, up to age forty-five, and if they join within six months of commencement of scheme, pay the employer's portion of the contribution as well as their own —that is, 7d. for men and 6d. for women per week, the State providing two-ninths and one-fourth of their benefits, as in the case of the " employed contributors." Persons who exceed age forty-five, or do not join within prescribed time, will be required to pay such rate for age as may be fixed upon. All of these persons, both compulsory and voluntary contributors, are required to attach themselves to one of the " approved " societies which are to be intrusted with the payment of the principal benefits, and entry into these societies is to be governed by much the same conditions as obtain at present, except as to age. Benefits. The benefits for all classes are, — First three months' sickness—Men, 10s.; women, 7s. 6d. per week. Second three months' sickness —Men and women, ss. per week. Permanent disablement, ss. per week. Free medical treatment and medicines for life. Maternity payment of £1 10s. Sanatorium treatment for consumptives. The sick and disablement allowances, which cease at age seventy, are reduced for persons under twenty-one years and over fifty years of age. The sick and medical benefit is not due until six months after insuring, and the disablement allowance not until two years after. The allowances are not payable if due to disease or disablement commencing prior to above-mentioned periods. The sick-allowance payable under the scheme is not to exceed two-thirds the usual rate of wages ; nor, together with any allowance from an independent source, is it to exceed the wages. Sick-allowances are subject to any sums or allowances payable under the Workers' Compensation Act. Where the benefits are reduced or suspended (which they may be through misconduct), the con tributor is in any case entitled to medical treatment and medicines. ADMINISTRATION BY SOCIETIES. Friendly Societies. —The principal part of the scheme —that is, the administration of the sickness, disablement, and maternity benefits, and partially the medical—is to be in the hands of what are termed " approved societies," the definition of which, it is considered, will enable the principal existing friendly societies to qualify. An approved society is a body of persons, corporate or incorporate, registered or established under any Act of Parliament, and which complies with the requirements of this Act. Qualifications. —The societies are to have a minimum membership, which is provisionally fixed at-ten thousand, and must give such security as is required by the Commissioners against malversation or misappropriation of officers, such security to be equal to one-half of the aggregate of the annual contributions payable by insured persons. Admission of Members. —The admission of members may be governed by their rules as at present, except as to age. Rules. —The rules must preclude the distribution of the fund otherwisejthan by way of benefits to members. The society must be self-governing in constitution, and provide for election by the members of committees, representatives, and officers. Provision must be made by rules to the satisfaction of the Commissioners for the—(l) government of the society ; (2) determination of disputes ; (3) administration of benefits by branches ; (4) keeping proper books of accounts ; (5) depriving any branch of the right of administering benefits where there is maladministration. Centralized societies are to establish local committees. Approved societies may apply present rules or make fresh rules for administering the funds and the enforcing of penalties for imposition, &c. All rules are to be registered under the particular Act providing for registration.

H.—l

Separate Accounts. —Every approved society and every branch thereof must keep books and accounts relating to 1 liits system separate from its other accounts, and must submit such books and mi counts to State auditors. Such society and branch is to be valued every three years in respect of the assets and liabilities arising under the Act. Returns as required by the Commissioners must be rendered. Branchks and Transfers. —The branches of a society cannot secede or dissolve without the consent of the Commissioners. There is also provision for the transfer of a contributor from one society to another, or to another country having branches of an approved society or national machinery of similar character. Surplus.—Should a surplus be disclosed at valuation it is to be used for the following purposes : (1.) If the society has branches, to reduce the deficiency, if any, of such branches. (2.) Additional benefits as sanctioned by Commissioners. (3.) If a branch shows a surplus, one-half of such surplus to be transferred to the central body of the society and the remaining half to be distributed in benefits as approved. (4.) If after a distribution of benefits a deficiency is subsequently shown to exist, there shall be no further distribution of benefits until the deficiency is remedied. Deficiency.—Any deficiency disclosed at valuation may, as far as possible, be made good out of any surplus that the central body may hold, with the proviso that the central body may refuse to do so if satisfied the deficiency is due to maladministration. It is then compulsory on the society or branch to make good the deficiency in three years either by—(l) compulsory levy on members ; (2) reducing sickness or maternity benefit; (3) deferring date of sickness benefit; (4) reducing periods of sick-pay ; (5) increasing periods between sickness and disability. The society or branch may by rule provide that levies may be enforced by notifying the employer to deduct from the members wages. Age Adjustment.—The finances of societies which accept as members more than a fair proportion of old contributors are protected by the establishment of a central equalizing reserve fund, to which all societies contribute a levy of for men and l£d. for women per week. Existing Friendly Societies.—Any registered society or branch shall, in respect of its existing funds, submit a scheme for abolishing, reducing, or altering such benefits as respect members who become insured persons under this scheme, and for the application of the accumulated funds in any of the following methods : (1) payment of other benefits ; (2) reduction of contributions of members in respect of additional benefits ; (3) in the payment of contributions under this scheme payable by its members. There is power to admit as approved societies such superannuation funds now carried on by employer and employees as are sanctioned by the Commissioners. Deposit Contributors. Medically Unfit and Others. —Persons who have not been able or who omit to join an approved society, or who have been expelled from one society and are unable to join another, are required to pay their own and employer's contributions into what is called the " Post-office Fund," and they are to be provided for on the system adopted by " deposit " societies. The sick and disablement allowances are payable only so long as the contributions, &c, credited to the contributor last, but medical treatment continues until the end of the current year. There must be a year's contributions paid into the fund before benefits commence. This fund therefore carries all the risks that the approved societies will not undertake. The administration of the sickness and medical treatment of " deposit contributors " is under the local Health Committee, a most important body that is to be established under this system. Doctors and Medicine. Medical Treatment. —The intention is to leave the arrangement of this benefit as at present — i.e., with the societies, who may contract with doctors as heretofore, except that the remuneration of the medical practitioners is to be increased, and the dispensing is to be excluded from their work and confined to dispensaries and chemists. It appears that the present average friendly society payment to doctors in England is about 4s. per head, including medicines, but the Bill proposes to raise this rate. It is interesting to compare the charge with the average cost in New Zealand—viz., about 18s. per member. The societies, of course, will provide medical treatment only for the voluntary and compulsory insured persons who are attached to them as members, and for these even they may arrange for the local Health Committee to undertake the administration of the benefit on their behalf, recouping the committee out of their funds. The medical question, which, as in other parts of the world, is at present regarded as unsatisfactory in Great Britain, will be a difficult one to solve, and if this scheme succeeds in placing it on a footing agreeable to both parties, then it will have achieved a notable result. Local Health Committees. For Local Health Supervision.—These important bodies are to be established in every county or borough, with the following constitution: —As many as eighteen and not less than nine members may be appointed as hereunder: One-third by the borough, consisting wholly or in part of sanitary authorities ; one-third by the approved societies of district; one-third by any association of " deposit contributors," or, if there is no such body, by the other members of the committee. In addition, the Commissioners may appoint a number not exceeding one-fourth of those before mentioned, including at least two medical practitioners.

H.—l

Functions of Committee. —The functions of the committee are to combine with other local authorities on health and sanitation matters, to consider the general needs of district on public health questions, and to provide for lecture and publication of information on these subjects. Funds and Income of Committee. —The committee, in addition to controlling the sick-pay and medical treatment of " deposit contributors," is to administer the consumptive sanatoria that the scheme proposes to establish throughout the country, and towards which the State is to pay a capital sum of £1,500,000 in grants, to be supplemented by local funds. The annual income of the committee for this consumption preventative work is derived from a yearly grant from approved societies of Is. 3d. per insured member and a further Id. per head annually from the State. One of the most important functions of these committees is that of fixing the responsibility for excessive sickness in the district. When an approved society or local Health Committee proves to the Commissioners that excessive sickness is due to bad housing, insanitary conditions for workers, bad water-supply, or neglect of statutory provision for the protection of health, the owner, company. or local authority is compelled to make good the cost of the excessive sickness, which is calculated on actuarial tables to lie compiled by the Commissioners. National Insurance Fund. —All moneys received in respect of contributions and moneys provided by Parliament for benefits are to be paid into a fund entitled " National Insurance Fund " under the control and management of the Commissioners, and the sums legally incurred by approved societies and local Health Committees shall be paid out of this fund. FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. INTEODUCTION. In presenting the details of our friendly societies' work during the past year I have much pleasure in drawing attention to the advance in membership and finance. The number of members returned at the end of 1910 reached the total of 68,006, an increase of 329 per cent. —a most satisfactory result when it is remembered that the rate of increase had dropped to 2-27 in 1909. It is even more gratifying on turning to the finances of the societies to find that capital has reached the record figure of £20 2s. Id. per member, representing total funds of £1,367,282. This large capital per member does not necessarily imply complete solvency, to ascertain which many contingencies, such as ages, contributions, and benefits, have to be taken into account, but compared with other countries where these may be reckoned on a somewhat similar basis, the position of the New Zealand societies is pre-eminent. There are indications that our societies still retain the health and vigor which has been such ■.i feature of their growth, and their extensive organization must continue for a long time to exert a considerable influence on our social and industrial life. REGISTRATION OF SOCIETIES AND BRANCHES. There were registered during the past year 36 new branches, distributed among the various orders as follows : M.U.1.0.0.F., 5 lodg s ; 1.0.0. F., 8 lodges ; A.0.F., 2 courts; U.A.0.D., 1 lodges ; 1.0. R., 12 tents ; H.A.C.8.5., 5 branches. The registration of the following was cancelled by dissolution : A.O.F. —Pride of the Lake (United Otago District). The following amalgamation was registered: M.U.1.0.0.F. —Awarua Lodge with Rangitikei Lodge (Wanganui District). The position of the orders in respect of registration is shown by the following summary as at the beginning and the end of 1910 : —

The rules of -IT societies and branches came under revision in one form or another for amendment during 1910, and with the passing of new legislation it is to be expected that this branch of the office will be kept fully engaged for the next few years.

FRIENDLY SOCIETIES ACT. The first year's operations under the new A.t show that the new provisions arc likely to prove of considerable benefit to societies, and, in particular, the powers of checking the adoption of imperfect or retrograde financial schemes must ultimately raise the general standard of stability in the societies. A full resume of the measure was given in my last year's report, but it is not clear that the officers of societies have yet fully grasped the effect of several amendments. The returns for 1910 have disclosed investments in halls and buildings which are only permissible under certain conditions, and it is also doubtful if the meaning of section 49, subsection-(3), relating to the investment of funds, is fully understood by trustees. Copies of the Act in booklet form, with a full analysis and index, are now obtainable on application to this office. OFFICE-WORK. As will be seen by the tables in this report, some eight hundred societies and branches are required by law to furnish each year financial returns and statements of membership, sickness, and mortality. These returns comprise about three thousand sheets, which have to be minutely examined and checked against previous balances and statements. The work thus entailed on the staff, apart from the registrations, is considerable, and, although the secretaries of societies are decidedly improving in their methods, still, the fact that a great number of errors and irregularities have to be annually written about is evidence that the keeping of the societies' accounts in order requires strict scrutiny and continuous supervision on the part of this office. The bringing into operation of the newly established National Provident Fund has brought additional work on the staff during the current year, and it is only fair to place on record the loyal and efficient service they have rendered on all occasions. VALUATIONS. The reform adopted by this office in circulating a number of spare copies of valuation reports for the information of members of societies has been much appreciated, and has moreover proved to be

H.—l

6

a direct gain to societies in that the complicated problem of financial improvement is now capable of being grasped by the more intelligent members, who are able to approach the question much better equipped and with some knowledge of the work they are called upon to carry out. A most informative memorandum by the Actuary (Mr. A. T. Traversi) on the meaning of a valuation has been included in the publication of the Friendly Societies Act recently issued by this office. This memorandum, which is entitled " The Finance of a Friendly Society," can be obtained free on application to the Registrar. ANNUAL RETURNS. The Friendly Societies Act provides that every society and branch shall, before the 31st March in each year, send to the Registrar a general statement (called the " Annual Return ") of the income and expenditure, and of the funds and effects of the society or branch for the preceding year terminating on 31st December. It is satisfactory to report that the work of secretaries in furnishing the 1910 returns shows a substantial improvement as compared with the previous year, the Druid order having made a particularly good showing. The details are given in the following statement showing the number outstanding at the closing-date : —

The increase in membership during 1910 was 3-20 per cent., as compared with 2-27 per cent, for 1909. The total funds of the societies and branches as on the 31st December, 1910, amounted to £1,367,282 Is. Id., made up as follows : Sick and Funeral Funds (inclusive of amounts transferred to special funds out of surplus), £1,263,819 10s. Id. ; Medical and Management Funds, goods, &c, £103,462 11s. Dividing the total funds by the number of members at the end of the year, it is found the average capital per member is now £20 2s. Id. Taking the several yoara 1901-1910, the number of lodges whose returns were tabulated, the number of members, total funds, and average capital per member at the end of each were as under : —

The following statement shows the disposal of the total funds (including those of the central bodies) as on the 31st December, 1910 : —

The next table shows the number of members of friendly societies, the amount of their accumulated capital, and the average capital per member, in each of the Australian States and in the Dominion of New Zealand, according to the latest received statistics, arranged in order of membership : —

Sickness. The number of members sick during 1910 was 11,850, equal to 18-67 per 100 members at risk. The sickness experienced during 1910 was 97,534 weeks 2 days, equal to 8 weeks 1 day per sick member, and 1 week 3 days for each member at risk. Owing in great measure to differences in the proportion of members at the several ages, the averages in the several districts differ considerably, also in the several societies or orders. The figures for the five large orders for 1910 are found to be as follows : —

The percentage of members sick for the year 1910 was therefore highest in the A.0.F., while the average sickness per member at risk was highest in the M.U.1.0.0.F. and lowest in the 1.0.0. F. In 1909 the percentage of members sick was 17-14, the average sickness per member sick was 8-34 weeks, and the average sickness per member at risk 1-43 weeks. Mortality. The following statement of average mortality experienced for the year is given herewith, but it takes no account of age incidence : —

Sick and Funeral Funds. The contributions and entrance fees paid to Sick and Funeral Funds in 1910 amounted to £100,017. Divided by the mean number of members the average was £1 9s. lid., as against £1 9s. 6d. for 1909. The interest and rent received by the lodges and central bodies amounted to £56,786 in 1910, equal to 17s. per member, as against 16s. 7d. for 1909. The amount of sickness benefit paid was £69,677 in 1910, equal to £5 17s. 7d. per member sick, and £1 os. 10d. per member, as against £5 18s. 4d. and 19s. 3d. respectively for 1909. Viewing the amount paid in relation to the weeks of sickness, the average benefit per week is found to be 14s. 3d. in 1910, as compared with 14s. 2d. in 1909. The funeral benefit paid amounted to £14.587 in 1910, equal to 4s. 4d. per member, as compared with 3s. lid. for 1909. The total worth of the Sick and Funeral Funds at the beginning of 1910 of 609 lodges was £1,151,724, and at the end of the year £1,221,372, as compared with 567 lodges, worth £1,065,549 and £1,133,534, at the beginning and end of 1909. The balance of gain for the year was £69,648, or £1 os. 10d. per member in 1910, as compared with £67,985, or £1 Is. 4d., in 1909. The averages for the five leading orders and for all societies are given in the following table for the year 1910 :—

The Registrar. As in previous years, the valuations made during 1910 were based upon the experience of New Zealand friendly societies up to age 70, and upon Sutton's English Sickness Tables and Farr's Healthy English Mortality Tables after tlint age. Where the societies' experience showed a consistent divergence from the standard due to some definite cause, as in the case of miners and females, the results were suitably modified. A difficulty in friendly-society valuations arises from the fact that, except in consolidated societies, almost every branch of fifty or a hundred members is financially independent of every other branch in regard to its most onerous liabilities (the sickness risks), so that each takes its own chances. This introduces an clement of uncertainty into a matter which is already sufficiently complicated —viz., the valuation of the sickness liabilities. No valuation tables based upon large numbers can possibly fit accurately the circumstances of every individual branch, and to attempt to value each on its own experience (containing possibly a considerable element of fluctuation) would involve other objections. The tables mentioned above are, however, found to he reasonably suitable in the majority of cases, and the data always given with the valuation reports enable any necessary mental reservations to be made in individual instances. As many of those interested do not seem to fully realize how the benefits drawn out by members increase with age, it will be of some interest to give the experience of the societies valued in 1910 in regard to this point. It is found that in these societies dining the five years preceding the valuation date— The members under 40 years of age drew out 18s. 2d. per annum each in benefits : The members from 40 to 65 years of age drew out £1 18s. per annum each in benefits : The members over 65 years of age drew out £6 7s. lid. per annum each in benefits. These figures include over 9,000 members, all the members being taken into account whether they drew benefits or not, and the facts given present a bird's-eye view of the working of a

H.—l

friendh eociety. When it. is borne in mind that a member joining at age 20 usually pays from about £1 6s. to £1 10s. per annum for these benefits, it will be clearly seen that a society virtually collects money from members when they arc young and pays out to them when they are old. In fact, any one considering the figures for a moment will lie able to discover for himself how and why a friendly society comes to accumulate funds, and why a valuation is necessary. The figures should also completely dispel the idea that the earlier members accumulate funds for the benefit of posterity. I now proceed to give some comments on the societies valued. The figures are fully set out in Appendix TV. Hawht's Bay District, M.VJ.0.0.F.: Valued at at 31st December, 1909. At the valuation-date then- were 11 branches, with a membership of 1,.139. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was favourable to the extent of £815, or nearly 12 per cent., whilst the mortality rate was very much below the expectation. The deaths during a period of twenty-five years numbered I 12, against an expectation of 1G(). All lodges excepting two (one of which was recently established) rained more than I per cent, on their funds. The rate earned by the District Funeral Fund was nearly 5| per cent. The valuation was made on a 4-per-cent. basis, excepting that one lodge was valued at the lower rate of 3 J per cent. The result was that the wry considerable surplus of £9,974 was brought out, all the lodges but one being shown to be solvent. The improvement as compared with the 1904 valuation is very considerable, and is to some extent due to the energetic manner in which the recommendations in my 1904 valuation report were carried out. The district is a model of good management, and it is in the proud position of not onlybeing able to guarantee to its members the benefits they have insured for, but also to hold out to them (in almost all the lodges) the practical certainty of further benefits out of the periodical surpluses. This results from an adequate scale of contributions combined with good interestearnings. Southland District. M.U.1.0.0.F.: Valued as at 31st December, U)(is. At the valuation-date there were 12 branches, with a membership of 1,637. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was favourable to the extent of E.") 70, or about 7 per cent., while for the past twenty years the mortality has been practically identical with the standard table. Out of the 12 blanches only 3 succeeded in earning more than I per cent, on their funds, and of the remainder only 4 earned more than 3 per cent. The District Funeral Fund yielded 207 per cent. The valuation discloses a deficiency of £19,814, the ratio of solvency being 15s. Bd. in the pound, and only one lodge having a surplus. The deficiency is greater by £.">,877 than at 1903, this being due largely to an unwarranted increase in the funeral benefits, which not only added to the liabilities, lint rendered the scale of contributions less adequate than before. Societies have in the past often found it difficult to deal with the clamours of less-informed members for additional benefits, but it is hoped that the new Act will prove of great assistance in this respect. It is manifest that benefits should not be increased in lodges whose assets fall considerably short of their liabilities. Auckland District. A.0.F.: Valued as at .list December, 190?. At the valuation-date there were 20 courts, the same as at last valuation, with a membership of 2,456. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was unfavourable to the extent of £1,142, or about !)}- per cent., this being due largely to the courts in mining towns. 'I he mortality experience, looking at an extended period, tends to be a little higher than the average of New Zealand friendly societies. Of the 20 courts, only 4 succeeded in earning more than I pel- cent., and ."i more than 3 per cent., on their funds, the remainder failing to reach ■'! per cent. These results are not satisfactory; and though the District Funeral Fund produced.over 5 per cent., still, when we take all the benefit funds in globo, it is found that the mean rate earned was only ■'!■',' per cent. The valuation brings out a deficiency of £34,186, the ratio of golvency being 14s. lOd. in the pound, and none of the courts showing a surplus. The result shows financial retrogression as compared with L 902, due mainly to a combination of low interest-earnings and high sickness. The scale of contributions has been raised since 1902, but this only applies to new members, and hence COD not have had much effect on the result. The scale is still short of adequate at most ages. The society could markedly improve the position by increasing the interest-earnings. The method of contributing to the District Funeral Fund (bj equal levies) is very unfair to voting courts. Smith Canterbwy District. A.()./•'.: Valued as at .!/.■</ December, I9OS. At the valuation-date there were 4 branches, with a membership of 713, The sickness experience of the quinquennium was favourable to the extent of £906, or 23 per cent., whilst the deaths during the past twenty years numbered 66, as against 81 expected by the tables.

11

H.—l

Two of the courts earned more than 4 per cent, on their funds, the remaining two earning Kss than :S per cent. The District Funeral Fund yielded a little over 3 per cent. The vara at ion shows each court to be in a deficiency, the gross deficiency being £6,050, and the ratio of solvency His. (id. in the pound. The deficiency is considerably less than at 1903, due largely to the gain from favourable sickness. The Funeral Fund is constituted on the unfair equal-levy basis, an.l, moreover, has not been well invested. I gather that the society is endeavouring to remedy theee defects, and also to introduce uniformity into the scales of contributions charged to members in tin , different courts. 'Ilie society has been very fortunate in the past in its sickness experience, ami if this good fortune continues it will lie of assistance in helping to improve the financial position. The scales of contributions, however, require increasing. New Zealand <'<nii<il District, 1.0.8. (Wellington/: Valued as at 31st December, 1907. At the valuation-date there were •'!•"> tents, with a membership of 1,746. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was, in the ease of males, favourable to the extent of £615, or ,S per cent., but in the case of females it was unfavourable to the extent of £106, or 41 per cent. On the whole a profit of £501) was made owing to favourable sickness. The mortality experience for the past twenty years lias been exceptionally low, there being only 118 deaths against an expectation of 151 according to the average <<i New Zealand friendlysocieties. As regards interest-earnings, though quite a number of tents failed to secure the necessary yield of I per cent, on their funds, these were principally cases where the funds were only small. Where the funds were large they were invested at productive rates, so that a mean rate of 5 per cent, was earned on the benefit funds of the society taken as a whole. The society has a Central Sick Fund designed to consolidate the sickness liabilities of all new tents, leaving it optional for existing tents to continue on a separate basis or not as they choose. The valuation - shows that (i tents have surpluses ami the remainder deficiencies, the net deficiency in the district as a whole being £7,.1211, ai.d the ratio of solvency 17s. lid. in the pound. The deficiency shows an increase as compared with 1902, due largely to the influx of new entrants at inadequate contributions. The principal wants of the district are a better scale of contributions, and an extension of the principle of combination where branches are really too small to stand alone. The \v]\ low rate of i tality has already been referred to. and there is little doubt that this is connected with the society's well-known temperance principles. A low death-rate does not assist a friendly society financially—rather the reverse; but nevertheless it must be a matter of considerable satisfaction to the members. Auckland Provincial District, N.1.0.0.F.: Valued at as Sltt December, 1908. At the valuation-date there were 2 branches, with a membership of 458. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was unfavourable to the extent of .£B2, or aboul •'{ per cent., whilst the mortality for the same period was considerably in excess of the standard, and operated favourably from a financial point of view in relieving the society of some heavy sickness liabilities. The interest-rate earned by the District Funeral Fund and lodges was over 1 per cent. The valuation was made at I per cent., and shows both lodges to lie in a deficiency, the gross amount being £6,984, and the ratio of solvency 12s. lid. in the pound. The society is not at all in a good position, and this is due mainly to the contribution system, which not only charges all members alike whatever their ages may be, but fails to charge any of them adequately. The funds of one of the lodges are beginning to show signs of decreasing at a time when they should still be increasing to keep pact,' with the liabilities. 'Ihe society has in existence a scheme whereby a levy of 6d. is made on each death to provide a funeral donation. These schemes operate in favour of the few who die early, but the majority lose money through them, and young men subscribing to them are not wise. Hawke's Bay District. A.0.F.: Valued as 'it the 81st December, 190 S. At the valuation-date there were 1 .'i branches, with a membership of 1,081. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was favourable to the extent of £255, or 4 per cent., whilst the mortality for an extended period has on the whole been below the standard table. The investments are well looked after, and all the courts but one succeeded in earning more than 4 per cent. Taking the society as a whole, the satisfactory rate of 5 J per cent, was earned. To these excellent investment results a well-administered Central Investment Fund contributed In no small degree. The valuation shows deficiencies totalling £7,435 in 12 courts, and a surplus amounting to £3,562 in I court, the net deficiency being £3,873, which is less than at 1903. The scale of contributions is not adequate on a 4-per-cent. basis, but something is being done towards making up for this inadequacy by investing the funds so as to earn about 5 per cent. The favourable sickness experience also contributes. A continuance of these favourable results should cause a gradual improvement, but this is to a certain extent relying on speculative factors. If new entrants wore required to pay a higher contribution, there would be more certainty.

The society possesses a Central Siok Fund winch centralizes the greater portion of the sickness liabilities of the separate ecu its. Unfortunately, it is organized in a very uneoientific manner, and hence enuses the greatest unfairness between one court and another. Aoraiu/i Lodge, 15.1'.0.0.F.: Valued as at 31st December, 1909. This is liii isolated society with I.Vi members at the valuation-date. The sickness experience has generally been favourable for some years past, and the rate of interest earned on the funds is in excess of 5 per cent. Tin- valuation (at I per cent.) shows a deficiency of £S()2, and a ratio of solvency of 17s. Bd. in the pound, wliic-h is slightly better than at I!IO4. If, however, the sickness and investment experience prove as favourable in the future as in the past, the position will, no doubt, show a gradual improvement. l( would he better if a somewhat higher scale of contributions were adopted for new entrants. Court Coromandel, A.(>./•'.: Valued as at 31st December, 1907, Tins is also an isolated society, the membership being 15 at the valuation-date. The sickness experience of the quinquennium was just about normal, and the interest-earnings were very small. A fairly large proportion of the funds was recently sunk in a hall which now practically dominates the Sick and Funerul fund, In view of this and of the small membership; it is impossible to correctly state the position of the court, but a valuation made at 3 per cent, brings out a deficiency of £2">9. the ratio of solvency being 18s. 2d. in the pound, as against 21s. in the pound ten years previously.
