War claims were much lighter than cx- pected. Although of substantial amount. they wore largely counter- acted by improvement of civilian mortality. Present favourable mor- tality experience is important as a. partial coluiterbalancc to the cur- rent low yield on investments. Commenting on the Company's marked gains. Mr. Burns remarked "activity in the life insurance busi- ness goes hand in hand with activ- ity in industry. in agriculture, in building. in miniiug. and in trades; and with a high lcvel of employ- ment and national income. Tlhesc ‘features are conspicuous today as they have been during thc past year. Rccoilvcrsion of ‘industry to peacetime basis. aitncugiti still in- complete. has made substantial pm:- gress. industrial production is 75% greatar than pro-war. Farms have yielded abundantly with good prices for their products. National income is well over twice the pic-war figure. Unemployment is extremely low. Imports and exports are much high- jer than pro-war. and balance of jtrade has been maintained.” “The total volume of business in Canada is high despite the losses oc- casioned by a series of strikes of record proportions. Tlhe most im- portant immediate problem con- fronting businzss today is to dis- cover a method of resolving labor- management disputes with fair- ness lo all parties and without interruption of produc- tion. Efficiency of production should be the constant aim of lab- our and management alike. for only by means of increased production can national income be enlarged, |exiport and import markets develop ed and standards of living im- proved." | Directors reelected were: Mr. H.
