AMERICAN MINERS STILL WAITING FOR
GROUP INSURANCE MASTERS GIVE 'CHILE'
By H. LOWNDES MAURY
Sometime ago the Eastern press
carried a small item 0 f abiding in
terest to every miner in Butte and
every Power Company employee in
the State.
It was to the effect that one of
our mining companies which also
operated to a large extent in Chile
was purchasing a group insurance
policy which would run way up in
to the millions of dollars on all
of its servants in the Republic of
Chile in South America.
A group insurance policy is one
that covers certain groups of ser
vants of a common master. Some
times this policy indemnifies all
of the servants for loss caused by
death, accident or disease,
times the policy covers only
tain groups of employees.
