Net earnings of the fund during 1929 were 54 per cent of its gross in- come, Tunnell said, but added that the income next year will be larger since a large number of bonds now in force were issued in 1928 for a two- year period. Collections during 1929 were $33,. 572.10 in premiums and $6,813 interest on money deposited in the Bank of North Dakota. It paid $5,484.66 on claims against persons bonded; $7,450 for reinsurance on large bonds and $4,709.70 for operating expenses. De~ duction of expenses from collectives leaves a net income for the year of $22,740.74, Thirty-two claims were filed against bonded persons during 1929, but most of these were settled with- out loss or are still pending. Some of the latter are for relatively large amounts. The four claims paid cost the department $5,484.66, The fund writes bonds for a maxi- mum of $25,000 and on bonds in ex- cess of this amount, the excess is re- insured with a private bonding com- pany. Tunnell said claims against the fund have been declining for several years and predicts that the downward tendency will continue. He credits stabilization of business and economic conditions with reducing the number of claims against thefund.
