COMPILE FIGURES ON .
BUILDING FIRE LOSS
Owners and Managers to
Gather Data to Show to Big
Insurance Companies.
PROMISE LESS HAZARDS

Statistics on the number Of fires
and the amount Of fire losses In Of
fee buildings owned and managed by
members OF the National Building
Owners and Managers association
and local associations throughout the
country are to be compiled. This
will be done by the national associa-
ton, with the view to making Z
showing to the insurance people in re-
gard to the decreased hazard in build
ings so owned and operated. Then
the association will press its demands
for lower insurance premiums.
The local association of Building
Owners and Managers at its last
meeting voted to appropriate 5000
toward the national fund of $4,000
being raised to make this fight. The
statistics gathered on this subject will
cover a period OF ten or fifteen years.
The building owners and managers
claim the insurance people have never
recognized them as they should in
their efficiency of handling buildings
so that fire hazards are decreased.
The insurance men claim the asso-
citation is too new and that the strictly
Office building is too new an institu-
ton. The owners and managers reply
that the office building is nevertheless
in a class by itself and should be so
considered in the matter of insurance
