Points A & They stress the pomt that no © . medical examination is required, and especially appeal to “those persons who, because of advanced age or physical infirmities, can not obtain any form of life protection.” Literature of these concerns con- ‘fains many false representations, including statements of fraternal and benevolent features; and the claim that they are operated on the same basis and plans of the old insurance societies which have been successfully operated in Eur- ope since the year 1168. False Belief People of sixty to eighty-five years of age, many of whom are suffering {rom some chronic .ail- ment known to them, are led to believe that, for a monthly contri- bution of $1 to $1.50, their bene- ficiaries will receive sums ranging from $1000 to $5000. When the member dies, any payment under the policy depends upon a “post mortem” investigation The pro- moters make every effort to show he was suffering fron: “ome chronic disease at the time eriificate was issued, and they usually find ! some pretense on which to deny tix claim. Consequently, no payment is made to the beneficiary, or the claim is settled for a nominal sum of from one dollar to fifteen dol- lars.
