Land Withdrawal
(Continued from Front Page)
their hardest part is in determining
just what would be to the best in
j terests of all concerned.
In a routine withdrawal, local
publicity is given out by the re
questing agency through press .re
leases. These releases state the rea
sons for requesting the withdrawal.
A notice is then published in the
Federal Register (a daily bulletin
published in Washington).
If objections to the proposed with
drawal, or comments in favor of the
action, are to be expressed per
sons wishing to do so should write
to the Bureau office in Anchorage or
go to the Fairbanks office to state
their opinion and it will be for
warded.
In the event a great deal of dis
sention is heard a public hearing
will be held to air the matter. If
no hearing is necessary the request
generally goes through. If a hearing
is held, the Secretary of the Inter
ior will make the final decision.
The formal description of the
property asked for is as follows:
“Commencing at the corner com
mon to the South East comer Sec
tion 24 and North East corner Sec
tion 25, Township 1 North, Range
2 East. Fairbanks meridian, Alaska;
thence due East 3.00 miles to a point
and True Point of description,
thence North 7.40 miles, more or
less to a point on the 65° 00’ North
Latitude line; thence East 18.50
miles, more or less, along said Lat
itude line to point of intersection
with the 146’30” West Longitude
line; thence South 5.25 miles, more
or less, along said Longitude line
j to a point that is 1/4 mile North of '
j an existing sled road traversing in j
an Easterly and Westerly direction, i
North of Chena River; thence in a !
Southwesterly direction, 1 '4 mile j
North of and generally following j
i main sled road for a distance of j
20.50 miles more less, to a point j

Insurance Man
Answers To
Labor Charges

returned to injured workmen in the
form of benefits under the Alaska
law. Much of the Alaska Compensa
tion insurance is written Lloyds of
London which was not required un
til after the 1955 law to file loss
information. Also, and more import
ant, the figures on file for domestic
insurors include" premiums and los
ses under the Federal Defense Base
Act under which most federal proj
ects fall. Consequently, these fig
ures should not be included in any
analysis to determine rates are
proper for the Alaska Compensation
Act.
‘:According to an analysis avail
able to us from a very responsible
actuary source, the loss ratio or
rate of return to injured workmen
would be close to J06 per eent
These figures are as accurate as
they can be, considering the actual
amount of factual information avail
able and do not include Federal
Act figures. It is believed that the
insurance carriers would make a
small profit on their underwriting
at this figure but it is estimated |
that the breaking point between
profit and loss would be about .68
per cent in the States and a some
what lesser figure in Alaska, where j
adjustment costs are naturally high
er. It would appear therefore, that
the carrier's profit would be less
than eight per cent.
“Perhaps we misunderstood your
letter, but if you really believe that
the Alaska Law' is the worst in the
nation, we would like to ask what
state or Territorial act you consider
superior to ours? In our opinion
there are none and we have made
some careful comparisons.
"The Alaska Compensation Law
by all standards is the most liberal
of any State or Territorial compen
sation that you can name, when
considered in the overall picture ,.,
It is important always to remember
that the Alaska Law has no con*
nection with the Federal Act.
"... In some industries in Alaska
the claims are excessive and the
resultant costs for insurance are
high in those categories. For this
reason, we as insurance agents, en
join you, as union members to work
toward the reduction of accidents to
the obvious benefit of all concerned.
“Summing up we feel that the
workers of Alaska have a good in
jury law; it is administered effi
ciently; the cost is fair to the em
ployer who pay the premium and
is not excessive except in certain
categories where excessive claims
occur; that the insurance agents of
Alaska are competing for the busi
ness assuring the continued good
operation to the benefit of the work
er and the employer. .
