This Department is in receipt 'of inquiries from many citizens through out the State requesting information concerning certain insurance com panies soliciting, through the mails, Life accident and Health Insurance, and I want to warn the public be fore acepting this cheap kind of in surance that the Insurance Commiss ioner has no authority M;o regulate companies or agents other than those which have complied with our laws and are licensed to transact in surnnce business, in this state. Beware of a Company which sells insurance at less than cost for a Company which does not make a pro fit is not a safe one in which to in sure, I want to strongly advise against listening to socalled adjusters of life insurance policies. A person repre senting himself as a Life Adjuster does this to create an impression that your policy is not properly written and then endeavors to place one he is selling. Such a person is in.' the same class as a horse thief, and I strongly urge our citizens in pur chasing insurance to deal only with licensed, authorized- agents. If the agent should be a stranger, make him produce his license for 1916 and when ever you are in doubt write this office as this Department was created for the protection of our citizens, and it will endeavor to advise as to the re sponsibility of the different agents.

The plant of tihe (Williamette Iron & Steel works is located at the foot of Seventeenth street.
