Sub- __ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE FRIDAY, HAIL INSURANCE FOR |{"‘twin Gy Speaker ]/esist Snes om FARMERS RECEIVING SEED LOANS ASKED Hopton Requests U. S. to ‘Fur- nish or Underwrite’ Premi- ums Totaling $500,000 Federal authorities at Washington Friday were asked by State Insur- ‘ance Commissioner Harold Hopton to: “turnish or underwrite” hail insur- ance for North Dakota farmers scheduled to receive an expected $14,- 000,000 in seed loans for 1934. Meyers, governor of the farm credit administration, carried with it the endorsement of Judge A. M. Chris- tianson, president of the North Da- kota Rural Rehabilitation corpora- tion and the support of former Gov- ernor Thomas H. Moodie, now state head of the federal housing corpora ti ‘ion. Support of the North Dakota dele- gation in congress also was asked in letters to them from Lars J. Siljan, manager of the state hail insurance department, and proponent of the plan with Hopton. Should the federal government ac- cede to the requests of the state hail insurance department, approximately $500,000 would be paid by the nation- al government in hail insurance premiums, Siljan said. Spending $14,000,000 For Seed In his request to Meyers, Siljan prize|pointed out the state hail insurance department “understands the federal government is prepared to loan ap- proximately $14,000,000 for seed to farmers of this state.” “The largest amount of seed loans so far allotted to North Dakota was approximately $8,500,000 in 1932,” Siljan continued, “so the contemplat- ed investment this year will exceed any previous loans in the amount of $5,000,000.” Siljan advanced the belief the fed- eral government “might be interest+ ed in securing these investment through hail insurance coverage.” He estimated the number of acres which would be seeded as @ result of the contemplated loans at 14,000,000. Siljan explained “farmers are in worse shape this year than at any time since statehood. With another crop in prospect, the protection against hail losses becomes an im- Portant problem.” Under the present law, he said, farmers delinquent more than one year in the past three years on hail insurance indemnity payments are barred from optional insurance, and must deposit with the department an amount equal to 10 per cent of the coverage sought. Speedy Action Asked “Practically no farmers who are y; {delinquent are in a position to meet ; {this provision of the law,” Siljan claimed, “and certainly not those habilitation policy for the govern- ment to furnish or underwrite this hail insurance.” Summaries showing actual costs of the hail insurance, together with tans: tables showing distribution of the average 10-year costs also were sent to Meyers. Siljan asked “speedy action, as we are rapidly approaching the seeding season.” In a similar letter to Meyers, Judge Christianson declared, “during nor- mal years, destruction by hail ts at T ¢ i level, 29.89.
