Those who are responsible for the futures of the great stock fire i ance companies constantly th que8tion of themselves as they keep their minds fairly exact figures sh jing the amount of liability whicn | would result from an uucontrollabir fire. Ne® York has more fireproof build | ings than any other city in the world. To ws they mean fire barriers divid ing the city—anuch as do fireproof {division walls in some manufacturing plant. The ordinary blaze is smoth- ered before it has a chance to assume \elarming proportions, and yet a con ‘flagration so great as to starile the world is always a possibility, 1 am (not an alarmist and therefore wish to emphasize the fact that there would | have to be a most remarkable con | spiracy of untoward fate and circum stance before such disaster could |sweep New York. But—well, that's ‘our biggest problem, just the same, \in New York as weil as in every {other city in the country. It has been my privilege to ob serve fire underwriting from the re construction days that followed the | Civil War to the present, when we are | reacting from a world struggle that |was for the protection of our very existence. It has been a pride and a oatisfaction to me to know that alone of all the great modern business jagencies, fire insurance companies have not increased the cost of their services to the public in this period of high prices. When the war was on and we were all readjusting ourselves |to the higher coats of living, a tem- | porary surcharge was made, but that | increase of cost was only 10 per cent., and it remained in force only a few | months. Ours is not a business of Immediate results and we take our tisk today, but our profit, if any, may only be determined in the distant | | future. . ‘The average cost of fire insurance, however, ia not only lower now than | it was before the Great War, but it | ikept on going down during the war lwhen everything else went up from |50 per cent. to 800 per cent. Perhaps |your own rate did not change, but it | is still true that the average cost was | |lowered. That, too, in the face of » demand unprecedented in the history of the business due largely to the | enormous increase in values. Fire in- | surance at least was one business where demand did nut make for ex tortion or overcharge when the pres- | sure was on. The fire that gave birth to fire in surance as a business occurred in London in 1666, ‘This was a bit be- | fore my time, but I have observed at close range the results frou cago Fire of 1871, follow Roston conflagration of 18 trous as they were to the of that day, the eco small compared with the destruction | in three days’ time of $350,000,000 of | | Bronsrty in San Francisco in 1906 ou recall what happened in 108 the year efter the Fran cisco fire? Was there not @ panic that tested us all? han enort shifting of values could not be made! without @ severe reaction, and the! economists told us that the prime factor was the sudden withdrawal of ever $200,000,000 from investment by the stock fire insurance companies to pay their lo: in San Prancisco. ! Maybe th & good moment to point out that fire insurance only indemnifies; it does not restore. Tha money paid out in n Francisco came from capital and surplus funds. of stock fire insurance companies and | | from the pockets of their stockhold | ‘To pay their losses there the com | panies had to cash in on their prime securities. Further, they had to call | into their business about $90,000,000 | t of that one | conflagration. Despite ail this the | | fatalities among companies occasioned | | by that eatastrophe were negligible| | compared with those following the earlier Chicago and Boston conflagra- | tions, when wildcat benks and wildcat | | insurance companies were numerous. | There are few of that type in exist | ence todag; the insurance laws of all | the States are too riigd and the public | | supervision is too close | The later conflagrations mentioned | | are only three of a score or more dur- | ing my lifetime, each of which has| | taught its lesson, Their combi | fect has been to lower t insurance to rd statement, ig to ur premium rate when ¥ you follow our | counsels.
