Let us measure
your
insurance needs
Insurance has become more
of a science than it was years
ago. There are more kinds of
protection now, and there are
combinations of policies that
can be made—often at a great
saving.
There are ne/w protections
that you may not know about.
Your insurance against many
possible disasters may now be
inadequate, in view of increas
ed replacement costs of prop
erty. Even damage suits are
bigger now.
» Let us survey fully your
current needs for protection
against fire, wind, theft, em
bezzlement, accidents, damage
suits, interruption of business
and other risks.
