FIRE INSURANCE RATES

| Wnen lt is fully realized that un-
derwriting profit is something to be
desired but not yet attained and
that the stockholders are dependent
upon the investment branch of the
cOmpany's activities for their return,
it will be at once and conclusively
apparent that fire insurance rates
are not too high.
Fire insurance in its cost to the
public is notably different from any
other service of commodity neces-
sary to the comfort and progress of
our modern civilization. The aver
age rate is constantly and steadily
deceasing. 1t is the one outstanding
service which has not contributed to
the higher cost of living or to the in
creased cost of doing business. 1t
has within itself absorbed the in
creasing expenses of labor, transpor-
tation, rentals, equipment and sup
plies of every nature incident to the
business and has at the same time
cQntinued to furnish the same high
standard of protection for lower
percentage of premium charge
There are several reasons for this;
perhaps the most important is that
are realizing as never |
before the wisdom of fire prevention |
work and the value of adequate fire
which includes better |
water supply, both in volume and
and pressure, better fire
fighting equipment which makes it |
possible to reach fires more quickly |
md to handle them more effective
Y; of better building ordinances and Il
heir more rigid enforcement; of bet

ating the speedier movement of the

Important industrial and world

Recently they have gained a,

keynoter and keystoner. They
are not willing to employ their
power and talents against our
country joining the present World

form the existing plan, to dis

this unholy conspiracy against
the peace Of the world is carried
forward, while silence, deep. and
impenetrable, broods over the

No words of reprobation fell

committee had taken action and
when the final curtain was drawn
upon the closing scene of the
Congress did he take the public

But it is not graft alone that Of

we have seen the present admin

toned Upon a thousand issues
they have hoisted the white flag
OF surrender. Amid all the con-

gone unSolved. We have felt the
slowing down Of industry, the in
crease Of unemployment, the di-
minishing purchasing power of the
farmers dollar. Starving herds,
rotting grain, and rusting spin
dies, have not stirred the sleeping

he and his associates promise four
years ago respecting international
cooperation and the promotion OF
world peace? Let me read to you
from the Republican literature OF
that day. Here Is the historic
appeal Of the so-called thirty.one
distinguished Republican leaders,
including Charles Evans Hughes,
Herbert Hoover, William Howard
Taft and Elihu Root.
1.-THE undersigned, who desire
that the United States shall do her
part in association with the other
civilized nations to prevent war,
has earnestly endeavored how we
may contribute most effectively to
that end by our votes in the COM
ing election. I" The ques.
ton between the candidates is not
whether cur country should join
in such association. -" The
Republican party stands for agree
ment among the nations to pre-
serve the peace of the world.
The Republican party IS
bound by every consideration Of
good faith to pursue such course
until the declared object is at
tanned. We therefore be-
lieve that we can most effectively
advance the cause of international
cooperation to promote peace by
supporting Mr.. Harding for ~efec-
ton to the Presidency"
That was one Of the spurious
coins Of 1920.
