CEMENT IN BUILDING.
Easy Access Has Made In Use Popu-
lar In This City.

Detroit builders consider themselves
fortunate In having easy access TO all
the cement they need for building
purposes. In and about the city
there are big plants, turning out thou
sands Of tons Of cement every year.
An unlimited quantity of sand and
gravel il also available at these places
at all times.
Much Of the material used In the
manufacture OF cement comes from
pits within q short distance OF De-
troit, and the proximity Of the gravel
and sand beds to Detroit. the dealers
say, has something to do with keep
ing the price Of cement and Its in
gradients at a reasonable price. The
fact that there are large cement yards
in Detroit also enters into the regula-
ton OF the cost Of the article. Were
IL necessary for Detroit builders TO
import their cement and other build
ing essentials, the cost OF building
would be much heavier here than It
now is, the cement dealers argue.
For the remarkable growth OF De-
troit In the past few years. the ce-
ment dealers claim some credit. They
declare that, but for the capacity OF
their cement plants and yards, the
builders of the city never could have
kept up with the demands for new
factory accommodations. In the build
ing Of most of the automobile fac
tories. cement was extensively used.
and the manufacturers of this COM
modify point out that II was their abil-
ity b meet the demand for cement

have an inxehaustible supply Of sand
and gravel and viii be able TO meet

life companies of other states issued
sac. 1877 ,O43 OF insurance In the state
of Michigan. while Michigan com
panies issued only s4.o4a.2sS OF In
surance In Michigan. At the end OF
1909. companies Of other states had

Insurance while the Michigan com

transacted by outside companies.
As compared with the above. II
NAV be cited that during the year

OF citizens OF Connecticut. and TO

population Of Detroit. has IN many
banks capitalized for az large an
amount as those Of Detroit The
greater development proportionafely
OF the financial institutions or Hart
ford II due to the insurance com
panies located ut Hartford.
The people Of Michigan should
realize that insurance institutions are
large factors In the financial develop
ment of any locality. and that there
Is no reason why Michigan should not
develop her own great financial In
stitutions and make Michigan one OF
the financial centers Of the country.
In order to accomplish this, the citi-
gems Of Michigan should purchase
their insurance in Michigan com
panies In every way possible.
Prior TO 1907, there was but one
Michigan life insurance company, a
company which began business IN
1867. This company In 1905 wrote
S1,075,163 of insurance on the lives
Of Michigan citizens. and had In force
on the lives Of Michigan citizens at
the end OF the year s9,3s0.229. The
amount OF premiums paid during the
year was $33o,42s.
During 1907 two new legal reserve

insurance written by the three Mich.
igan companies on Michigan citizens
during 1907 increased to $3.44O, $50
and the amount Of insurance In force
increased to 81. ISL. 606, and by the
end Of 1909. this was increased to
s15.4s1 ,295.
During 1910 another legal reserve
company began business, making four
Michigan Life Companies In all. These
four companies during 1910 wrote in
Michigan s6,011, 264 OF new insurance

nearly s19.000,0o0 OF insurance or
about double the amount OF insurance

MARINE INSURANCE BRISK.
Detroit Important Center Because OF
chipping Interests.

Detroit Important Center Because Of
shipping Interests.
That Detroit should be an inn
portant center for marine insurance
might easily be inferred from the
magnitude Of the shipping interests
OF the city Of the straits. Detroit
companies have been writing insur-
ancs upon the lake marine practically
since the freight Of the great lakes
was taken from the birchbsrk canoes
and batteaux nodlla into the hands Of
the old sailing masters.
In the days Of the old sailing craft
marine insurance was far more Of q
speculation than II 10 today, for the
storms Of those days were Just az
violent and disastrous to shipping
that happened to be caught In their
clutches az are the hurricanes that
sweep the lakes In the present days.
The difference IN the risks Of the ear
iy days Of marine insurance In Detroit
and the risks of the present CORE
spond to the differences In stanchness
and seaworthiness between q huge
modern steel freighter and the little
old sailing craft that once carried the
trade of the great lakes.
Marine insurance In Detroit has
grown UP with the growth Of traffic
on the lakes. There has been
steady increase IN the tonnage insur-
ed and In the revenue that comes into
the city from this source. The In
creased precautions that have made
the lakes safer-channel lights, charts
and life-saving stations and the safe
ty appliances which government regu-
lations have made part OF the equip
ment OF every vessel-have mado
scientific business of marine insur-
ance out OF a mere gambling on the
average state OF the weather and the
good fortune OF the sailors during the
shipping season.
There are still losses on the lakes.
however, losses that for the most
part cannot be prevented by any pre-.
cautionary regulations, and these are
the sort OF losses upon which Detroit
marine insurance companies are pro.
tecting vessel-owners al along the
lakes.
The expansion OF the business In
Detroit has been commensurate with
the marvellous growth in lake traffic
during this period, and with the IN
creasing development OF the upper
peninsula OF Michigan Il can be read
ily prophesied that the marine insur.
ance interests OF Detroit will share
in the future prosperity Of lake snip
