If these were normal times, this one fact might fully account for the record volume of Equitable life insurance purchased last year. But the conditions under which we now live provide additional reasons why so many thinking Americans are investing more of their dollars in life insurance.

Think for a moment in terms of yourself: You are living in a period of inflation of high prices and high taxes. Never has the purchasing power of your dollar been less for most of the things you buy. What would happen if you put more of your spendable dollars in life insurance? With your very first premium you receive immediate protection a guarantee of security that can't be obtained in any other way. would take years of self denial and saving toac cumulate the amount of security that is provided at once through a life insurance policy. Moreover, the benefits which you or your family will receive from your policy will come, in all likelihood, at a time when the dollar has regained a more normal purchasing power.

In this respect, life insurance paid for today is bargain protection for the future. EQUITABLE FAMILY GROWS The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States a non profit institution oper ated solely in the interests of its policyholders and their beneficiaries has been helping families build security since 1859. More people purchased more protection through Equitable policies last year than ever before. New insurance issued amounted to $1,170,000,000. A total of $11,944,000,000 of insurance in force now safeguards the Equitable family of policyholders.

In line with this increase in protection, the resources of The Equitable Society increased $322,400,000 to $4,505,000,000, a new high. Thursday there will be a candlelight communion service and the Rev. Mr. Smith has chosen for his subject "The Way of For giveness; inday the Kev. Mr.

FIGHTING INFLATION Money used to purchase life insurance is non inflationary, since premium payments represent funds diverted from consumption into channels of investment, where they help to increase the nation's industrial productivity Inflation is the enemy everyone. The primary source of inflation in this country is the excessive supply of money and credit in our commercial banking system, reflecting unsound national monetary policies. If we are to solve the inflation problem, we must first of all deal with this excessive supply of money in our banking system. It is useless to try to control prices through rationing, or through increased production, when the creation of money in the form of bank credit goes on uncontrolled. It is like fighting fire with one hand while the other hand pours on additional fuel.

Inflation can be restrained at its primary, source if enough citizens, motivated by self interest and recognition of the need for pre serving the economic strength of the nation, make their demand for sound monetary policies known to those who represent them in Congress.
