PARTY STANDING IN OTTAWA HOUSE1 Readers interested in the out-c corne of the coming Dominion1 election rnay wish t0 preserve thet foloQwing which represents thei party standing in the House at thez time of prorogation and includest the resuit of the by-election int Grey North. Liberals ---------------------156i Progressive Conservatives ---401 Social Credit --------10---------l CCF----------------------------------- 10 1 Others ----_ ------------------------ 18 Vacant------------------i TOTAL 245c The "others" listed include In-C dependents, Bloc Pop., UnionF Nationaile, Communist (Labor-e Prog.) and several who have crossed the floor as deserters from co Liberai ranks since the last eiec- fq tion. Liberals had 170 in 1940. n A Policyholder Reports "Some years ago 1 insured my life with The Mutual Life of Canada and every year since that time 1 have carefully read the Company's Annual Report because as a policyholder 1 arn, with 180,000 other pollcy.. holders, zfpart-owner of the business. '«I arn a practical man, and big figures, as such, do flot convey much meaning- I want to know what they mean to me as a policyholder and to my dependents. "Take 1944 for instance. More new policyholders joined The Mutual Life than during any other year in the Company's long history. That means a stronger company, more people united with me for a common purpose -personal and family protection. (We own 285,000 policies for protection exceeding $723,000,000). It is evidence that the Company has gained a good reputation through its service and outstandirig policy resuits. "$14,854,000 was paid to, policyholders in death dlaims, matured policies, dividends and other payments last year, benefitting many individuals and families throughout Canada. My policies are stili in force and their values are constantly increasing. The assurance of security for the future that they guarantee gives me peace of mind. «'0f the amount paid out by the Company in 1944 I received My share of the dividends, or premniumn refunds as a substantial reduction of my premium. $93,000,000 have been paid in dividends to policyholders since The Mutual Life was first organized in 1869, which means that the actual cost of insurance has been reduced by this amount. «'I also noted with ipleasure that The Mutual Life invested heavily in the two Victory Loans of 1944 and that a large percentage of the assets, which total $252,000,000, is in War and Victory Bonds. I arn interested t¶n these assets because they belong to us -the policyholders - and represent the stability behind our insurance. "It pleases me to know that the Company is conducting its operations fromn year to year so carefully that the SAFETY of my insurance is unquestioned, -and so economically and efficiently that the earnings of the Company give me my insurance at the LOWEST POSSIBLE NET COST. "You see, life insurance to me is a personal thing, and my Company's reports on its operations for the year mean more than a presen ta- tion of figures - to me they mean a strengthening of my present and future security and that of my fellow policyholders and our dependents."

STOP ORDER ON COLLECTING CIVILIAN GOODS FOR ABROAD The Government has authorized the Wartime Prices and Trade Board to prohibit public appeais for the donation of any goods for despatch to any other country un- iess a speciai permit is obtained through the National War Ser- vices Department. Ail current appeals must be discontinued un- tii a proper permit has been ob- tained. The order states: Except with the previous permit in writing granted by Order, no person, association or institute un- der whose auspices a War Charity E'und registered under the War Charities Act is being raised or is proposed to be raised, shall, on or after Feb. 6, 1945, for any purpose other than for distribution in Canada or f0 Canadian Armed F'orces or merchant seamen, under existing arrangements: 1.
