PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
We at Nationwide Life Insurance Company are pleased to present the 1998
semi-annual report of the Nationwide VLI Separate Account-3.
The bull market continued its run in the first half of 1998. Most of the gains
came in the first quarter with more modest returns or small losses for the
second half of the period. At this writing, a market correction that began in
the second quarter continues to provide a good deal of day-to-day volatility.
Much of the capriciousness of the market is due to uncertainty about the
economic outcome in Asia. However, we think the correction will be of limited
magnitude and duration and will provide a healthy respite before further market
advances.
We believe that existing economic and market fundamentals provide an ongoing
favorable environment for financial assets. Interest rates remain low; inflation
is nearly nonexistent; corporate earnings, albeit slowing, remain positive, and
U.S. economic growth appears to be on a modest but sustainable track.
Against this backdrop, we believe our variable insurance products continue to
provide the versatile investment vehicle you need to respond to changing market
conditions. We are committed to the continual evaluation of our products and
services to ensure that we remain responsive to your long-term financial
planning and retirement-savings needs.

funds except for American Century VP - American Century VP Income &
Growth, Morgan Stanley Universal Funds - Emerging Markets Debt
Portfolio, Nationwide SAT - Small Cap Value Fund, and Neuberger &

purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their
contracts and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits,
the latter being included in the accounts of the Company.
(c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income
The market value of the underlying mutual funds is based on the closing
net asset value per share at June 30, 1998. The cost of investments
sold is determined on the specific identification basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy
or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
21
<PAGE> 21
(d) Federal Income Taxes
Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with,
operations of the Company, which is taxed as a life insurance company
under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes
are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or
withdrawal.
(e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if
any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
(f) Reclassifications
Certain 1997 and 1996 amounts have been reclassified to conform with
the current period presentation.
(2) POLICY CHARGES
(a) Deductions from Premium
On flexible premium life insurance contracts, the Company deducts a
charge for state premium taxes equal to 2.5% of all premiums received
to cover the payment of these premium taxes. Additionally, the Company
deducts a front-end sales load of up to 3.5% from each premium payment
received. The Company may at its sole discretion reduce this sales
loading.
(b) Cost of Insurance
A cost of insurance charge is assessed monthly against each contract.
The amount of the charge is based upon age, sex, rate class and net
amount at risk (death benefit less total contract value).
(c) Administrative Charges
For flexible premium contracts, the Company currently deducts a monthly
administrative charge of $12.50 during the first policy year and $5 per
month thereafter (may deduct up to $7.50, maximum) to recover policy
maintenance, accounting, record keeping and other administrative
expenses. Additionally, the Company deducts an increase charge of $2.04
per year per $1,000 applied to any increase in the specified amount
during the first 12 months after the increase becomes effective. The
above charges are assessed against each contract by liquidating units.
(d) Surrender Charges
Policy surrenders result in a redemption of the contract value from the
Account and payment of the surrender proceeds to the contract owner or
designee. The surrender proceeds consist of the contract value, less
any outstanding policy loans, and less a surrender charge, if
applicable. The amount of the charge is based upon a specified
percentage of the initial surrender charge which varies by issue age,
sex and rate class. For flexible premium contracts, the charge is 100%
of the initial surrender charge in the first year, declining to 30% of
the initial surrender charge in the ninth year.
No surrender charge is assessed on any contract surrendered after the
ninth year.
The Company may waive the surrender charge for certain contracts in
which the sales expenses normally associated with the distribution of
a contract are not incurred. No charges were deducted from the initial
funding, or from earnings thereon.
(3) ASSET CHARGES
The Company deducts a charge equal to an annual rate of .80%, with certain
exceptions, to cover mortality and expense risk charges related to
operations. On each policy anniversary beginning with the 10th, this charge
is reduced to 0.50% on an annual basis provided that the cash surrender
value of the contract is $25,000 or more on such anniversary. This charge
is assessed through the unit value calculation.
(4) DEATH BENEFITS
Death benefits result in a redemption of the contract value from the
Account and payment of the death benefit proceeds, less any outstanding
policy loans and policy charges, to the legal beneficiary. The excess of
the death benefit proceeds over the contract value on the date of death is
paid by the Company's general account.

(5) POLICY LOANS (NET OF REPAYMENTS)
Contract provisions allow contract owners to borrow 90% of a policy's cash
surrender value. The contract is charged 6% on the outstanding loan and is
due and payable in advance on the policy anniversary.
At the time the loan is granted, the amount of the loan is transferred
from the Account to the Company's general account as collateral for the
outstanding loan. Collateral amounts in the general account are credited
with the stated rate of interest in effect at the time the loan is made,
subject to a guaranteed minimum rate. Interest credited is paid by the
Company's general account to the Account. Loan repayments result in a
transfer of collateral including interest back to the Account.
(6) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company performs various services on behalf of the Mutual Fund
Companies in which the Account invests and may receive fees for the
services performed. These services include, among other things, shareholder
communications, preparation, postage, fund transfer agency and various
other record keeping and customer service functions. These fees are paid to
an affiliate of the Company.
