 Jews Head "Risk List" Insurance Men Place Them In the Lead With Catholics Next and Protestants the Poorest. HOUSEWIIVES ALSO POOR Life insurance men, delegates to The American Life convention, meet- lng at the Hotel La Salle in Chicago, injected a little paychology into their discussions Friday of the best risks in human lives. The net re- sult of diiscussions was the decision that among the religions the Jew is the best risk. As to the occupation among women the startling conclusion was reached that the housewife, the ordinary kind who tends babies and darns stock- ings, is almost the poorest risk in the world. Only chorus girls and were mentioned as poorer risks. As to religions It was decided that next to the Jew the Catholic was the best risk and and Protestants the poorest. The latter are classified as they rank from Christian Scientists, the highest in rank, to the Methodists, the most dangerous risk. In writing the average policy the question of religion is not gone into, but in writing big policies a man's religion is investigated as well as his politics. Bull Moosers Rank Low Apropos of politics the rating is in the following order: Republicans, Democrats, Prohibitionists, Bull Moosers and Socialists. Dr. E. J. Spratling of Atlanta, Ga., is by official oonsent the official statistician, psychologist and theor- ist of the convention. "Strange as it may seem, religion plays an Important part In the esti- mating of the degree of risk on In- surance policies," said Dr. Spratling. "The Jew is the best risk in this country. There is less of fervor and excitement in his religion and it is more conducive to natural living other religion. This is par- ticularly true of their women. They live naturally, have fewer worries and less illness. "The Catholic religion is more ritualistic than the Protestant and it seems to be to be less of an effort for its worshippers to live normal lives." Methodists Given to Worry. "As among the Protestant religions ^Methodista are among the risks. They are forever ing about their salvation, make iftore labor of their, religion than and hourly inven- of their sina.
