Will Begin Work of Agency Organi sation at Once -Work of Company Outlined. Charles A. Craft, underwriting mana ger of the Pacific States Fire Insur ance Company, reached Portland on Sunday last. He will take up his duties with the home company at once. In speaking yesterday of the prom ise attending the development of the rompany's business. Mr. Craft was par tlcularlv enthusiastic over the outlook of the "local fire insurance situation. "People generally." ssid Mr. Craft, "have but little appreciation of the value of an established fire insurance company to a community. In Seattle, where I have been located for the psst two vears." continued Mr. Craft, "we have "a company, started only five years ago whose gross Income last year amounted to over $434,000. The gross incomtV of the Fireman's Fund of San "TVfre "1 s V l nderrrrltlna Manager, Pacific Mates Fire Insurance Com pa ay. Portland. Francisco in 1909 was $4,895,105.76. In Oregon today the people are paying out regularly over $6,000,000 a year for Insurance premiums. During 1909. for Instance, the exact amount paid out by policy holdera in Oregon for all kinds of insurance was $6,822,996.25. Of this amount, $2,024,403.48 in losses sus tained, and $962,104.1$ in premiums were returned to policy holders during the year. There is no city of the size of Portland In the United fctates today, that does not support a well-established and prosperous fire Insurance company. While I have been In the fire insurance business all my life. I am surprised In looking up the sta- tlstlcs covering the business of tne Tire Insurance companies of the country generally to find Just what magnitude the business of these companies hss attained. A concrete example of the value of insurance companies to a com munity la furnished by the case of Hartford. Connecticut. With a total population of 8S.O0O. the gross income of the fire Insurance companies of Hartford for 1909 amounted to over $40,000,000. The gross sssets of these companies approximate $70,000,000. Des Moines, with a population not much above 77.000. last year made a show ing of Its fire Insurance companies ss follows: total assets. $3,600,000: In come, over $2,000,000. These figures do not Include the heavy additional Income which both Hartford and Des Moines enjoy, from premiums of the large life insurance companies located In each of these cities." Covering the policy which hss been .dopted bv the management of the Pa cific States Fire Insurance Company In Its acceptance of risks, Mr. Craft desires to make it particularly plain to the people of Oregon, that during the first year of the company's existence It will be the aim of the company's management to eliminate every ele ment of risk In -the conduct of the, company's business. This end can be easily reached by reinsuring In all cases down to the point of safety. The managers of some of the largest fire Insurance companies In, the world, with established agencies In the Northwest, have already approached the manage ment here with a tentative offer to take over all the surplus risks that the Pacific States Fire. Insurance Company may not want to handle. Recently the Northwestern manager of one of the strongest of the London (England) companies came to see Mr. Craft with the view of making definite arrange ments for handling any aurplus risks that the management of the home com pany might not want to carry. It may be stated here, for the benefit of the stockholders In the home company, that definite arrangements will be made In the near future with the strongest of these outside companies, on a reinsur ing basis, that will prove of the great est benefit to the home organisation. This arrangement, too. made on abasia of reciprocal Interest to both parties to the compact, will result in opening; up a wide field for the future opera tions of the Pacific Slates Fire Insur ance Company, where an extensive bus iness may be handled on- a profitable and safe basis. In opening- the field of Oregon for the Pacific States Fire Insurance Company. Mr. Craft took occasion to make It par ticularly plain that the policy of the borne company will be a conciliatory one la all caaea, "We have no fight to make a gains any other company," said Mr. Craft. "We feel that there Is busi ness enonfrh la Oregon for us all. I think tne mutuals even are doing a good work Just this far; they are opening- up new fields -and educating people to an appreciation of the value, eVen of the neoeaslty of carrying fire Insurance, fields that the old-line companies In many Instances have not been able to reach. The policy of our company will be to open up Oregon first, and later we will reach out for business in the ofTier states that make up Portland's tributary district. Through the recip rocal relationships that will be early es tablished with the strong companies of the Kast. It Is the hope of the manage ment that It will not be many years be fore the Pacific States Fire Insurance Company will be conducting a business that will reach to all parta of the United States." Mr. Craft today Is one of the best known Insurance men of the Coast. For several years he was surveyor In the Northwestern field for the Pacific Board of Underwriters. Afterward he served as special agent for the Union Assurance Society and the Law, Union A Crown, of London. In the same field. His powers In the latter position, were wholly executive. He was then ad vanced to the highly responsible po sition of manager of the Northwestern branch of Johnson A Hlggins. the larg est Insurance brokers In the world, with headquarters In Seattle. He haa come to Portland to stay, and he will devote all hla energies and ability to the upbuilding of the business of the Psclflc States Fire Insurance Company. la referring to the work, already i s ejjBB.ajsssjssgs. done by the organizers of the home company, Mr. Crsft spoke in the high est terms of the ability and integrity of the company's management. "I find," said Mr. Craft, "that the company has already placed over $150,000 of its stock with the leading business men of Ore- ,hi. ai, haa been sold with out any effort to crowd things after the methods of the promoter, it is con fidently expected that the entire issue of the first series of $250,000 will be placed before the first of the new year. This Is a record." continued Mr. Craft, "that I do not think has ever been made In the organization work of any other fire Insurance company of which I have a knowledge at the present writing." Before Mr. Craft decided to resign the .-no..n..n r ilia Northwestern busi ness of Johnson & Hlggins. he went over carefully every aetau oi ura ui... -TT'm ..i.ti. in taklna- UD his act ive work with the company here, he gives his personal pieage in agement of the company's affairs will be handled on a basis that may promise the greatest degree of safety to the company's interests. Many of the beet known financiers of Oregon have already identified them selves with the Interests of the Pacific States Fire Insurance Companies. The following letter from Ralph E. Will lams, president of the Dallas (Oregon) National Bajik will be read with Inter est by the friends of the new company. It may be stated here that Mr. Williams Is president of both banks at Dallas, he has wide Interests in Polk County, of which Dallas is the county seat, and he is recognized as one of the ablest busi ness men of the state: WHAT BA2TKBR WnXIAMS RATS.
