Lumber in Cotton Class.

Many Of the insurance companies
are now canceling their policies in
this State on lumber. Lumber, like
cotton, has always been insured by
blanket policies with a co-insurance
clause. When the companies took
action on cotton, refusing to issue
any more blanket policies, at the
Leginning of this season, lumber
policies were not disturbed, and the
rule as to lumber was not changed.
keCently, however, heavy lumber
lc>s in South Mississippi called the
attention of the companies to the
fact that their blanket policies on
lumber with the co-insurance clause
were collectable, under the decision
Of the Supreme Court, for their face
value, and that no deduction could
be made for failure of the insured
to lesp the lumber fully insured.
This discovery has been causing
wholesale cancellation of lumber pol
i les.
