KEEP PACE WITH TIMES
Advance of South Manifested Nowhere Greater Than
Here.
Savannah's industries and institutions are daily
adding the progressive, get-the-business spirit to their
enviable reputation for clean, honest and conserva
tice business methods, and no one of her institu
tions proves this to a greater extent than her new
company, the Commercial Life Insurance and Cas
ualty Company.
The methods adopted in the organizations of thii
company have been commended by financiers and
insurance men the country over. Unlike some other
companies which have been organized in the las'
several years, it was launched without a cent of com
mission to stock salesmen; in other words, it is just i
company of the most substantial and trustworthy
business men of Savannah and the Southeast, who,
by their records, have proven themselves worthy of
any trust put in them They have seen the necessity
for a Southern insurance company, organized along
the right lines, and after careful study of the suc
cesses and mistakes of insurance companies for the
last fifty or sixty years, the Commercial Life of Sa
vannah came into existence. Ways and means were
figured to give the most benefit to the policyholder
and the company through avoidance of such mistakes
and by adhering to the successful methods, accom
plished this.
Every day people are learning that after all, the
old adage. "Honesty is the best policy,” is absolutely
true, and it is being lived up to more and more by
individuals. The adage has always been recognized
by numbers of men who started out to work the most
good for the most people. The methods and the bus
iness policy of the Commercial Life are open to the
most critical inspection of federal or state officers
and citizens of the South. An officer of the company
a few days ago stated thta the company's object was
to go after the safe life insurance business of the
South, and not to write "wildfire” insurance which
only lasts a year or so and then lapses, causing a loss
to both the individual and the company. He stated
that when a policyholder is entered on their books t
is their object to keep his name there until death or
maturity of the policy. He recited instances showing
that in the life Insurance business it is better to go
slow than to go out with the idea of getting the busi
ness regardless of cost to the company or the policy
holder.
"On the whole, I believe the Commercial Life is a
good, clean, straight, conservative and yet wide
awake institution which will give as much in insur
ance returns as the premiums warrant, and as far as
I can learn from study of the principles of life insur
ance, this is as much as any company can do, regard ■
less of any attractively worded and decorated poli
cies that may be presented to the insuring public, ’
he said.
