Des Moines. Nov. IA number of
Des Moines fire insurance men are back
of movement to secure the enact
ment OF fire marshal law in Iowa
They do not expect to secure recogni-
ton by the next general assembly, but
hope to arouse sufficient interest to
bring the matter before the general as
sembly in 1906. They will ask the Gre
alton OF another state Office, to be
known as state fire marshal" He will
conduct the department on the same
principles as the state game warden
etc 1t shall be his duty to appoint
deputies and ferret out all possible in
cendiary fires. The companies claim
that about thirty per cent Of the fires
are of incendiary origin. and that the
bulk of them could be prevented by
having a state fire marshal and ade-
quate laws providing for the proper
punishment Of the crime. The insur-
ance companies claim 1t would be OF
greater benefit to the people at large
than to the companies themselves
The companies meet the increased
losses by simply increasing their rate
and the honest premium holders have
to pay for the dishonest one and for the
crimes of other parties.
