The answer to everyday
Insurance problems
By Turner Van Marter
& Bryant
INSURANCE
QUESTION: Can you tell me
what a Floater insurance
policy hi? I hear the term
used by insurance men but
it has never been explained
to me.
ANSWER: A Floaler policy
covers all risks except those
which are specifically ex
cluded by the policy. This is
a different form from the
type of policy which covers
only those ritiks specifically
mentioned in the policy.
If you'll address your own
insurance questions to this
office, we'll try to give you
the correct answers and
there will be no charge or
obligation ol any kind.
