THIS A.M.P. IN ENGLAND.
The decision of the A.M.P. Society to extend its operations to England was one of a meritorious character, and though it was generally considered from the outset of the movement that success was assured, at the same time it must be gratifying to many Australians to realise that the most sanguine expectations were being fulfilled. The Hon. A. W. Meeks, M.L.C., Chairman of the A.M.P. Society, has recently returned from a trip to England, and his expression of view upon the position of the Society in England leaves no room to doubt that a wise move was made when it was decided to look for further fields and pastures new in the Old Country. It appears that the Society ha 3 already a very large clientele in England who belong to the Society owing to their former residence in Australia. The income from this source • alone is about £38,000, carrying insurances for over £1,000,000. Mr.Meeks considers the establishment of the A.M.i J . in London as one of the best advertisements Australia has ever had, because it will be apparent to financial men and others that a country that can produee a Sjciety with £24,000,000 accumulated funds must have something behind it.
