State Buildings as Result of
Reduction

Madison.-Co-opera with Insur-
ance Commissioner Cleary, Superinten-
dent M. F. Blumenfeld of the depart
ment of pnbliN property has secured a
reduction of insurance rates on state
buildings and contents that has result
ed in a saving of $6,648.8S, or nearly
one-third, Notwithstanding the fact
that the valuation is materially in
creased. The total amount of premium
for the present year is $10,18792, as
compared with $16,836.S0 for the past
year.
The state capitol is insured for
$4,455 900, as against $4,050,000 for the
past year.
When the late legislature, through
its finance committee, sought to con-
vince Mr.. Blumenfeld that he was in
error when he said that he could get
along with less appropriation for
the department than that proposed by
the committee, he pointed out this in
surance item as one which he was
sure could be reduced to $4,000.
