This compares with $2,452,000 during the similar
period of 1921 and is, an increase of $1,059,000 or 43 per
cent over last year.

There are 98 Old Line or Legal Reserve Life In-
surance Companies doing business in Michigan. Included in
these is the oldest Life Insurance Company in the world, d e
greatest in amount of assets and the largest in the world.

Of all these the Detroit Life shows the greatest gain in
new business paid for in 1921 over the new business paid
for in this state in 1920.

The amount of this gain over 1920 is $2,318,000.
