Insurance Rates
We are glad to notice that our Palmerston contemporaries, the Times and Standard, agree with us that the time has now arrived when joint action must be taken by insurers of property south of the Sangitikei Eiver, to the end of obtaining such a reduction of the rates now paid as will put them on an equal footing with insurers in other parts of the colony. The support which is thus assured from Palmerston will act as a direct encouragement to our correspondent "Indignant," who is now taking the preliminary steps towards holding a meeting of insurers in Feilding. If insurers in Palmerston decide on the same means of thoroughly ventilating the subject, so much the better, for the movement will then have double influence. As the meeting here will be in a few days we will make no further comment on the subject matter to be discussed until the date is announced.
