A8 HONOLULU ADVERTISER Aug. 24, 1963 Insurance Firm Starts Its Own Mutual Fund insurance (at age 35, this would buy about $10,000 of "20 pay" life coverage), and $200 goes into the mutual funds charge a commission on purchases generally about 8Y2 per cent but nothing on sales back to the fund. The fund plans to pay dividends from investment income, as well as capital gains distributions, on an annual basis. WEGGELAND said American Pacific has built its life Utilities Hit High For Year NEW YORK (UPI) -Stocks pushed ahead yesterday with enthusiasm in high gear and normal pre-week-end profit-taking held to a minimum. Prices rose steadily from the opening but a trickle of selling in the final minutes of the session dropped a number of issues below their best levels of the day.

Dow-Jones industrials rose 4.67 to 723.15, the highest closing level since June 12 when the indicator stood at 723.36. Utilities rose 0.24 to a new 1S63 high and were only a shade below the all-time high of 144.61 set in 1929. Standard Poor's 500 stock index inched up 0.22. TRADING SWELLED considerably to 4.880,000 shares compared with the 4,540,000 shares which changed hands Thursday. Of the 1,299 issues trnHorl COO tin -insurance-mutual fund bination around a package By EMIL SCHNEIDER American Pacific Life Insurance Ltd.

has gone "whole hog" on the idea of combining the sale of, life insurance with mutual fund shares. In a move believed to be one of the first of its kind in the United States, American Pacific has organized its own mutual fund to combine with its insurance sales. In contrast, most life insurance firms combining their insurance sales with mutual fund shares have entered into agreements with distributors of existing mutual funds. THE IDEA of combining the sale of insurance with mutual fund shares is to provide an equity investment through the mutual fund which, theoretically, at least, is supposed to keep pace with inflation. Insurance represents constant dollars, like money- in a bank, and is diminished in purchasing power as inflation increases.

In recent years, many individuals have preferred to put their money into stocks and mutual funds instead of NEW STAR This is The Mandarin, Intercontinental Hotels newest hotel, which will open Sept. 1 in Hong Kong. Built at the harbor's edge at a cost of $15 million, the hotel is 27 stories high and contains 650 rooms with private involving 1 a "20 pay me insurance policy, coupled with declining term insurance. The package will be offered for as little as $10 a month, with two-thirds of the sum going toward the insurance and one-third for shares in the mutual fund. Larger amounts can be purchased in multiples of fund.

The amount of declining term insurance would be $4,000 at the start ($200 a year times 20 years). Each year, the term coverage would decline by $200, which is the amount you would be investing annually in the mutual fund. At the end of 20 years (provided you were age 35 at the start), you would have a $10,000 paid-up life insurance policy, and you would have invested $4,000 in the mutual fund. IN DISCLOSING the plans for the mutual fund at a session of the Pacific Insurance Conference here yesterday, Hugh Tuttle, senior vice president of American Pacific Life, had this to say: "We believe that this 'balanced fund' concept that we offer gives the premium payer an opportunity to build a very substantial and profitable estate for himself by combining the guaranteed cash values of insurance policies with stock equities of fast growing American life insurance companies." By EMIL A. SCHNEIDER Advertiser Business Editor The Hawaiian home-building market, "by virtue of its size and its continuing growth," offers a sizable sale potential to firms that supply this industry a potential that should not be ignored or slighted because of the relative isolation of Hawaii.

Such was the advice of one of the industry's suppliers Yale Towne at a session of the 1963 building and marketing conference of the National Association of Home Builders, meeting at the Hawaiian Village. James D. Young of New York, general sales manager of the firm's Yale lock and hardware division, urged national manufacturers to accommodate themselves to the market's needs here by maintaining sufficient "on-island" inventories and conducting product information seminars. "Without a sufficient local inventory," he said, "builders here cannot be adequately serviced." Better Agents No. 1 Need In the life insurance business, adequate manpower (agents) was hailed as one of the principal problems of the industry at the Pacific Insurance Conference yesterday.

"Perhaps the most significant reason why manpower development is of prime importance in insurance companies is the growing sophistication of the insurance buyer," said John S. Bickley, professor of insurance at the University of Texas, Austin. This means, Prof. Bickley added, that "marked changes in executive thinking with respect to manpower will be necessary if insurers are to acquire enough high quality people to maintain their competitive position in the quest for the consumer's dollar. "The life insurance business can no longer afford low cost, average personnel." he pointed out.

The declining term insurance is designed to pay the full investment in the mutual fund over tne 20-year period if the policy holder dies in the interim, IT WORKS this way. What goes on at Halekulani?

Prompted by a recent article in Life magazine, Robert K. Hasegawa, acting director of the State Labor Department, says that 95 per cent of the job placements made last year by the Hawaii State Employment Service were unemployed persons, in comparison with Life's report of only 40 per cent for the U.S. Employment Service nationally. However, Hasegawa noted that the service here is available for employed persons as well as the jobless. Savings Bond Sales Up Again Sales of U.S.

savings bonds in Hawaii continued their upward trend with a July volume of $1,084,027, a gain of 12.5 per cent over a year ago, according to Dan E. Dor-man, First National Bank president and Hawaii savings bond vice chairman. Sales for the January-July period were up 11 per cent over last year, he added.

The new mutual fund is called American Pacific Fund, Inc. It plans to invest mainly in life insurance stocks, although it can invest up to 25 per cent of its assets in casualty and other insurance companies.

THE FUND already has been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the State of Hawaii. Plans also are being made to register the fund in California, although American Pacific Life does not operate in that state. Gordon L. Weggeland, vice president and treasurer of the insurance firm, said the fund's shares are available for sale to the general public as well as to purchasers of American Pacific's life insurance. Total assets of the fund are more than $150,000.

Net asset value per share is $10.35. A SEPARATE company, American Pacific Management has been set up to act as distributor, underwriter and investment adviser for the fund. The management firm has the same officers as the insurance company. Weggeland pointed out that the fund has been set up as a "no load" fund that is, there is no commission charged on either purchases or sales of the fund's shares.

The Council informed McClung that it had asked AFL-CIO President George Meany to use the union's influence with congressmen from West Coast states affected by the proposed 9.8 per cent freight rate increase. The council said it also asked the Hawaii congressional delegation to intercede with the Federal Maritime Commission in an effort to block the increase.

Shoemaker, vice president of the Bank of Hawaii, told Congress yesterday that passage of President Kennedy's proposed tax on foreign securities could cause more problems than it solves, especially in terms of U.S.-Japanese economic relationships.

The equalization tax on foreign securities sold in the United States was submitted by the Kennedy Administration as one means of helping solve the U. S. balance of payments problems. TESTIFYING before the House Ways and Means Committee, Shoemaker noted that Japanese visitors to Hawaii have been increasing over the years and now number about 20,000 a SATURDAY ON TV For Full Details See TV Weekly in THE SUNDAY STAR-BULLETIN ADVERTISER Hour Big Bright Sounds 5.00 Japanese Program 7. no Lifeline 7:15 Here's To Vets 7:30 Bia Bright Sounds 30 Roval Hawaiian Dance Party 05 Houseparty 1:00 Sign Oft the State and spending $20 million a year when Japanese travel restrictions are relaxed.

But the equalization tax, applied to Japanese securities, could disrupt the sensitive Japanese market and "would retard the growth of the tourist trade," Shoemaker said. IF A significant fraction of the potential travel from Japan to Hawaii were curtailed, the economist said, "the effect would be to increase rather than decrease our negative balance of payments position."

In addition, Shoemaker said it should be noted that investments flow in two directions and that within the past month a Japanese firm has contracted to pay $8 million for a Hawaiian hotel (the Princess Kaiu-lani) "in anticipation of the prospective rise in Japanese travel to Hawaii." THIS commitment alone, he said, is worth almost one-third of the volume of the investment of Hawaiian buyers in Japanese securities to date, about $25 million.

He said this indicates "why the people of Hawaii are seriously concerned over the possible impact on the proposed bill on the Hawaiian economy." Apart from the effect of the proposal on the Hawaiian economy, Shoemaker also said there would be negative effects on the U.S. economy as a whole if Japanese securities should be taxed. HE NOTED that Japan buys more from the United States than the United States buys from Japan, and said "the fact is that the effect of the announcement of the provisions of the bill is to create a tendency toward more restrictive action designed to protect Japan's balance of payments position." He said Japan could cut back on its imports without taking "overt" action simply by slowing down the processing of import licenses, a possibility which could hinder U.S. exports. ON A BROADER political and economic plane, Shoemaker said the effects of the proposal in Japan might also cause "a strengthening of the influence of those elements, in Japan desirous of expanding trade with Red China" and cause "some diversion of the orders for imports now going from the United States to other foreign countries."
