SAFEGUARDING PROP
ERTY AND PERSONS
Fire insurance r.nd casualty in
surance are the safeuards i Lil-
! lions of dollars worth of pr-'-p-rty
and millions of lives in the I'nitV'l
States. Without these two cp.-n. i-s
to protect property ?nd prso;;-. .t:r
country could never have dev. r d
as it has.
The beginning of the twentieth
century inaugurated a generation
during which the world's manner of
living has ben revolutioniz-d. Fir.
insurance has had to cover n.any
risks whi?h were previously unhard
of, while casualty Insurance hs
grown from almost an unknown busi
ness until today V is indispen.-able
to human endeavors where labor or
contact with ftllow-bei ags is in
volved. Thee two clashes of insurance
furnish the basis cf credit and pro
tection for every home and business
in the United States. They carry
the risk for all business.
If one wishes to demonstrate what
an outstanding part they play in our
modern financial and industrial
structure, try to operate an employ
ing business without them.
