TRANSYLVANIA TIMES Lire Losses, At Record High, Total $903 Million In 1953 Fire damaged or destroyed an estimated $903,400,000 worth of property in the United States last year (1953), the National Board of Fire Underwriters has reported. This is 15.1 per cent higher than the year previous (1952), when monthly losses totalled $784,953, 000. According to Lewis A. Vincent, NBFU’s general manager, 1953’s fire losses are the highest on rec ord for the third consecutive year. He said the losses reflect to a large degree the nation’s expand ing economy, particularly those in surable values exposed to fire that have increased proportionately and I include the result of the disastrous fire last August at the Livonia plant of the General Motors Corp. Mr. Vincent noted also that loss es for the month of December were particularly heavy, amount ing to $83,440,000 an increase of 22.6 per cent over losses of $68, 064,000 for the preceding month I (November) and an increase of 112.6 per cent over losses for De cember, 1952, when they amounted to $74,127,000. These estimated losses include an allowance for uninsured and unreported losses. SAY—I SAW IT IN THE TIME?^ Dr. L. G.
