You, in turn, can count on life insurance to help you meet these future responsibilities. Over the years the life insurance business has earned a reputation for conservative, careful management in handling policyholder funds and in carrying out itspolicy obligations. This record is demonstrated in the reports which each life insurance company must file every year in every state in which it is licensed to do business. Through these reports and periodic examinations by the state authorities, the affairs of the business are an "open book" to the public. These are among the reasons why you can count on life insurance . . . and why it is America's most widely used form of thrift. .., ,V V4'S ' jT V?".'" .
