That is an interesting, though unsound, discussion of the fire insurance situation as presented by Mr. Wm. N. Graydon, whom recently we have welcomed as a new citizen of Columbia. Mr. Graydon objects to the thought of South Carolina being made to serve the insurance companies. And so would we. But there is no such danger. The Record did suggest that Mr. Manning's recomendations be taken on faith. We think it would be J ? Viovo niimorniit nmpnH uailgciuuo m; uavw mu?mvv?.0 ments offered from the floor of the general assembly, confusing rather than clearing the situation. And Mr. Graydon's letter is the strongest proof of that. The weakness of Mr. Graydon's statement consists in his attack upon the integrity of insurance companies, inferentially classing them with offenders before the law who "bitterly resent the passage of prohibition laws." With citizens in that frame of mind, no argument in behalf of justice to the insuring companies can be effective. The fire insurance company cannot appraise the value of all risks when written. This would require more machinery and would make the business unprofitable. No honest man will suffer by the repeal of the valued policy law. A company cannot afford to face public resentment by making frivilous contests. At the same time, if there should be a fire upon which suspicion rests, as to the over-valuation of the property, the company should have some elasticity in making settlements. A policy is a contract, and under the law the company is bound under that contract to pay the amount stipulated, even if the named valuation be in excess of the real. The insuring companies contend in their justification that they have lost heavily under such conditions,?Columbia IV^VVX V*.
