10,023,334.00 3,152,915.00 $6 870 41 9.00 is e net amount drained out of Oregon in 5 years for life insurance premiums sent to enrich Wisconsin, New York and other states by making their home companies the custodians of these trust funds from Oregon. Does anyone doubt that the commercial supremacy of New York is due to the centralization of the insurance assets in that market, more than to any other one factor? More money is handled by the insurance companies than all the transportation companies in the country, and it is the centralization of these immense accumulations in one locality that makes that locality the seat of the financial empire. m It is the personal interest of every citizen of Ore gon to use his influence that Life insurance be bought of Oregon! jfc and the money Kept in Oregon for Ore gon's development.
