NEW ENGLAND ASSOCIATION OF FIRE CHIEFS is along the lines of emergency operation. He is training the new men on~ the local conditio.ns. I say ’~training new men on local conditions," f£r this reason. Where we must bring in, as other companies hive from outlying areas, those men must first know local conditions in Worcester. In order to know that we must set a basis of adjustm~n.t cost. Now that basis of adjustment cost is arrived at by a meeting of contractors and material men in Worcester with adjustment staffs to work out unit costs of repair. That is an important thing because that means the men who are going to do the work have agreed on a certain, cost for doing repair work and they are going to hold to that cost, so the people in Worcester are going to get the benefit of an agreed replacement value, as a starting-point in the adjustment of a loss. Those adjusters from other areas, from Boston, Maine, New York and: Pennsylvania, and even some from the South, are briefed on costs as they are peculiar to Worcester, so the people of Worcester will get an adjustment based cn Worcester expense. No. 2, the chap who is in a state of mental shock is not going to have to worry about an adjustment for a day or two. We can’t find the people; they are locking after their dead and the injure.d members and we feel it would be almost a sacrilege to intrude on family sorrow to quickly adjust a claim. There is a human side of our business and’ we can’t see what chaos there is in such a situation, without being to sympathetic we wil]~ not intrude cn family grief. The moratorium of seventy-two hours gives the National Board a chance to set up a supervisory office, issue instructions to all the insurance interests as to the plan to be followed. In following the catastrophe adjustment operation somewhat like the Civil Defense with its plan for disaster, we in the insurance business have our own plan for disaster. We follisw you men in. It is work which we must necessarily follow and it sometimes interferes in that we must go into the territory. I was up here Wednesday, the day following the storm. There were pro.bably fifty men in- that area who were getting in the way of some of the rescue squads. We were there to find out the extent of damage, to find out the number of men we would require ~in that area, to find out what we would need in the way of supplies and’ manpower to mo.ve in after the emergency clean-up is over, so that the people in that part of the county could secure as quickly as possible, their insurance. Catastrophe work has various aspects. We want you to know what we are doing ,because we don’t want you to think we are interfering in any way with the work you have set. On the other hand, the organized groups, such as fire and police departments, afford us a valuable means of information and are a great help in time of stress. I don’t know how long it is going to take the insurance adjustmer~t job out’of one of the most disheartening disasters I have ever seen, but I can assure you of this, that whatever does happen, there isn’t .an insurance adjuster, agent or fieldman in that area that hasn’t the greatest sympathy for the people, nor who will cot give to the utmost to provid~ whatever we, in our business, have promised to provide when disaster strikes. We have a disaster plan; we have it to build goodwill not f.cr ourselves but for a business which over 300 years has stepped in when just such occasions have happened, to rebuild. I want to digress just a moment to develop a little community of interest, to point out how the firemen,and insurar.ce men have worked tcgether ever since the early part of our colonies. In the days of the. volunteers it was not uncom:;’_on for fire companies "141 - :.,--~:. _ .......... -
