More Equitable Distribution

cies listed as the committee be
lieves should be adopted by the
school board. t
Allotment of policies for in
surance on the new $170,000 J.
L. Parrish junior high school on
North Capitol is apparently the
one big bone of contention. Dur
ing the course of construction
$15,000 worth of insurance was
allotted to Anderson & Rupert,
which firm already had a policy
for 13.000, giving it a total of
118,000. Becke & Hndricks were
given permission to write $11,000
cn the building at the same time.
having already . been signed for
$7,000. giving this firm $18,000.
As the building progressed the
school board increased the insur
ance holdings by $40,000. the
committee points out, this to be
distributed equally in five $8,000
policies among A. C Bohrnstedt,
W. H. Grabenhorst & Co., J. A
Mills, S, O. Robinson and J. C
Tibbits. with the understanding,
it Is said, that policies of $10,000
each would be given these five in
surance - dealers, bringing their
holdings to $18,000. the same
amount as was held ty Anderson
fsc Rupert and Becke & Hendricks
This agreement Is said to have
been acceptable : to all concerned
The remainder of the insurance
was to be distributed among oth
ei firms. f
Insurance of the school proper
ties: is divided' into two classes,
one protecting the brick buildings
and the other the four frame
structures There is $489,3001 in
insurance carried on the brick
buildings, including the new jun
ior high school and $92,000 on
the frame buildings. Buildings are
insured for 90 per cent of their
value above the ground and in
case of the loss of one or two sep
arate buildings, the district will
receive 100 per cent on the build
ing. , ' M
