1926. NEW' ZEALAND.

FRIENDLY SOCIETIES AND TRADE-ONIONS. FORTY-NINTH ANNUAL REPORT BY THE REGISTRAR OF FRIENDLY SOCIETIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER, 1925.

Presented to both 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 Hon. the Minister. Sir, — Wellington, Ist July, 1926. I have the honour to submit herewith, in accordance with the Act, the annual report of this Office for the year ended 31st December, 1925. 1 have, &c., William M. Wright, Registrar of Friendly Societies. General. There was considerable activity among friendly societies during the year under review, the result being that the total membership increased by 3,920, equal to 448 per cent., as compared with 3-81 per cent, for the previous year. Thirty-nine new branches and two isolated societies were registered during the year, as against seventeen new registrations during the previous year. There was also a satisfactory increase of the total accumulated funds, which now represent an average of £34 6s. 7d. per member, as against £33 16s. for the year 1924. The rate of interest earned by these funds during the year was 5-75 per cent., which proves that advantage has been taken of current rates consistent with safety. The mortality-rate declined from 8-09 to 7-22 per thousand members at risk. Sick-pay, per member sick, decreased from £7 3s. 9d. to £7 2s. Bd., whilst contributions and interest earned per member increased from £3 Bs. Bd. to £3 10s. 3d., the whole representing a net gain per member of £1 3s. 10d., as compared with £2 os. sd. for the previous year. Annual Returns. Patience and forbearance on the part of the Department account for the fact that there were no prosecutions last year for failure to render returns within the prescribed time. It is hoped that chronic delinquents will appreciate this truce and give practical expression to their appreciation by rendering their returns promptly and correctly in future. Registrations. There were registered during the past year thirty-nine new branches, as follows M.U.1.0.0.F. : Lynndale Lodge, Richmond Lodge, Pokeno Lodge, Fapatoetoe Lodge, Owhango Lodge, Patetere Lodge, Chevalier Lodge (Auckland District), and Marton Lodge (Wanganui District). 1.0.0.

The following statement shows the disposal of the total funds (including those of the central bodies) as on 31 st December, 1925 : —

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 1925 was 14,602, equal to 17-9 per 100 members at risk. The sickness experienced during 1925 was 161,320 weeks, equal to 11 weeks per sick member, and 2 weeks for each member at risk. Mortality. The following statement of average mortality experienced during the years 1921-25 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 1925 amounted to £164,450. Divided by the mean number of members the average for 1925 was £1 16s. 10d., as compared with £1 16s. 4d. in 1924. The interest and rent received by the lodges and central bodies amounted to £149,228 in 1925, equal to £1 13s. sd. per member, as against £1 12s. 4d. for 1924. The amount of sickness benefit paid was £104,148 in 1925, equal to £7 2s. Bd. per member sick, and £1 3s. 4d. per member, as against £7 3s. 9d. and £1 2s. lid. respectively for 1924. Viewing the amount paid in relation to the weeks of sickness, the average benefit per week is found to be 12s. lid. in 1925, as against 12s. 9d. for 1924. The funeral benefit paid amounted to £28,192 in 1925, equal to 6s. 4d. per member, as compared with 6s. 9d. for 1924. The total worth of the Sick and Funeral Funds of 817 lodges at the beginning of 1925 was £2,618,326, and at the end of the year £2,724,840. The balance of gain for the year was £106,514, or £1 3s. lOd. per member, in 1925, as compared with £173,301, or £2 os. 5d., in 1924. The comparative decrease in the net gain is due to the fact that during the preceding year there were profits, amounting to some £30,000, in the sale of real estate. It must also be pointed out that last year the appropriations of surplus funds exceeded those of the previous year by more than £40,000. Taking these factors into account the increase for last year would be about equal to the average of recent years. The greatest part of the surplus appropriations mentioned above has been transferred to special funds for the payment of additional future benefits or the immediate reduction of members' contributions.
