Salem. Ore., Feb. 9—Hugh H.
Earle, insurance commissioner, has
received word from R. E. O'Malley,
superintendent of Insurance for the
state of Missouri, of the precarious
condition of the Manufacturing
Lumberman’s Underwriters, a reci-
procal exchange of Kansas City,
Missouri. So serious are the finan-
cial difficulties facing this insur
ance organization that Superinten
dent O'Malley has advised holders of
policies or contracts to cancel their
policies and properly protect them
selves with other insurance.
A recent examination of the af-
fairs of the exchange disclosed that
during the first ten months of 1936
Its losses exceeded a million dollars
due largely to charging inadequate
rates. Large additional losses hava
more recently occurred by fire, flood
and water damage in the Ohio val
ley region against which this ex
change carried substantial coverage.
Reasons advanced by Commission
er Earle for following the advice
sent out by the Missouri official are
based on the following facts:
First, the members or policyhold
ers of the exchange are, under the
Oregon law. responsible for the los
ses and expenses of operating the
exchange, and this responsibility
continues until their policies are
canceled either by the member or
policyholder, his attorney-in-fact, or
by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Neither the attorneys nor any court
has canceled these policies.
Second, recent reports on the fi
nancial condition of the exchange
are very discouraging and losses oc
curring under these policies will in
all probability not be paid for many
months and possibly for years.
