Unprecedented Rise In Fire
Insurance Claims In U S A

Attributed to General Wave OF
Carelessness, Decline in Mainten-
ance of Property, Scarcity of Re-
placements, Lax Protection Serv-
ices.
A period of low aggregate fire
losses throughout the United Sta
! ties brought about widespread fire
insurance rate reductions in the
early 194O's. AS called for by the
laws in many states the rate revi-
sions were based upon the previous
five-year experience. Today's I'M
precendented fire losses were not
generally anticipated. Unless the
trend is soon reversed, increases
in rates will become mandatory.
Meanwhile the wise property ow-
ner will review his insurance pro-
lection and arrange to place it on
a long-term policy contract at pre-
sent premium rates.
Let us explain how we can save
premium dollars for you on long
term insurance.
