After deducting loss paid, commits
siuns paid to agents, taxes paid tc
tie territory, life claims, and div
dends paid to the policy holders, a
very large amount had been sent out
of the territory, and he urged the CO.
operation of all Of the resident
AGENTS here that they take up with
their companies and urge them 10 H.
vest a portion OF their profits here IN
Hawaii, and thereby conserve to the
territory this enormous amount OF
money. He was glad to report, how
ever. that some OF the mainland COM
panies doing business here have al
ready consented to invest their profits
here
Mr. Myers explained, in speaking OF
life insurance, that it was not his
intent lion to transgress on the mem
bers' rights, representing the life sec
ton OF the Rotary Club, and he was
sure that a great deal OF interest
could be said on this subject OF life
insurance. Mr.. Myers hoped that he
would be justified when speaking OF
insurance conservation. in including
these enormous figures that are an
nually contributed for HE insurance
in this territory. Copies of the in
surance commissioners report, and or
the new insurance law had been fur
nished to every meInoer of the. club
by Deputy Insurance Commissioner
Henry c. Hapai, and Mr.. Myers
urged the members 70 make study
of these. Insurance methods have ad-
vanced greatly in the past few years
by the addition Of number OF bright
young underwriters who have joined
the different insurance agencies, and
with their thorough knowledge of the
business gained with large mainland
companies, are building up some very
strong agency connections, and this.
together with the new insurance law
and the insurance commissioner who
is making thorough study Of insur
ance, will surely bring about much
more satisfactory understanding be-
tween policy holders and the compa-
MES, he said.
Underwriting Successful
I'VE claim to have practically DEM
onstrated that underwriting can be
successfully undertaken (notwith-
standing the limited territory that we
operate i'm, and with further cOopera:
ton can be extended to control 4
good part of the underwriting of this
territory and push forward to the
mainland for business. Published
statements show that, during our
brief career, we have made invest
ments with sixty-one collateral loans
aggregating s12s,000; thirty-nine
mortgage loans aggregating $1,000,
and we now hold an investment in lc-
cal bonds of $27,5Oc. This, to my
mind, most forcibly demonstrates in
surance conservation and the value OF
home insurance. Every dollar of our
surplus is employed in the upbuilding
of the territory, and is 1t not true con-
servation to retain this money in the
territory, instead OF sending it away,
and, in many cases, to foreign coun-
tries? We are now we'll established
and | believe the time has arrived to
reach out for mainland business.

:: Business And Financial News ::
Underwriting FOR BUSINESS US.
IS URGED BY ROTARY CLUB SPEAKER

you. Fellow ROtarians, in my plan
which for the past - years has been
uppeTmost in my mind. 1t is TO be rs
eretted very much that ! was dis
suaded some l. years ago when re-
turning here from the mainland, from
carrying out what | now believe could
have been more easily accomplished,
that is the consolidation Of and the
taking over Of various insurance asen,
cies, with the idea Of underwriting all
that could safely be undertaken with
a local company, and by a system OF
reciprocity exchange the excess OF
this giltedge business here for equal
" as hign class business on the main
land.
There is no question but what
Hawaiian company. properly or
ganized. could go to the mainland and
at once become a strong factor for
business We occupy here a most
unique position in the underwriting
world, and probably no place can
show a more profitable insurance rec
ord than right here in Hawaii, and
while the physical hazard is in most
cases extremely great, the moral haz-
ard is comparatively perfect.
After 10 years Of effort TO bring
about sufficient interest in this larg-
er undertaking. early in June Of 1911,
succeeded in interesting one OF our
big men, who promised to assist me
along the lines as above suggested.
At that time | outlined for him two
plans, one very carefully prepared,
giving figures if a combination OF
agencies could be arranged, and with
startling results. The other was TO
start a company in a small way, and
by persistent and independent efforts
win a position of strength and conf
dence in the community before under
taking mainland underwriting. Fail
ing to get the promised support from
this gentleman. and failing to secure
any cooperation whatsoever from the
local agents here. the Home lnsur-
ance Company Of Hawaii, Limited,
was started Just six years ago, and
the results Of our undertaking are
fresh in your minds from recent pub
licity.
Mr.. Myers prefaced his talk on In
surance Conservation at the Rotary
Club today by very interesting ex.
hibition of figures compiled from the
preliminary report of the Hon. c. J.
Mccarthy, insurance commissioner,
ended December 81, 1915, showing that
for the fourteen years ending that
date premiums had been collected In

He Did His Best.

Great amusement was caused by the
action of yellow hammer which tried
to peck a hole through castiron Unit
ed States mail box on a post in front
of hotel IN Albany, n. Y The bird
persistently operated his beak on the
top of the box for several intervals of
five to fifteen minutes with the result
that the paint was slightly Scared in
several places, but so far as could be
ascertained, with ne damaging effect
to the beak. Early in the forenoon the
proprietor of The hotel, was disturbed
while reading the paper, by the sound.
He watched the performance with
amusement until some passer-by
caused the bird to fly away. The bird
returned several times during the fore
noon and pounded away on the top Of
the box at times a number Of people
acting as spectators.
