he sprung what to many ordinary in

prise T. e. that all do not pay the same
rate for insurance.

ploy expert buyers. whose sole duty
1t is to purchase a fire insurance on
the best possible terms and conditions
The success Of these expert buyers
proves that either the rates are too
high or that large concerns get their
insurance too cheap. How many com.
panies refuse TO grant these special
rates. am not advised but am
convinced that the granting OF special
favors in rates is wrong"
