Woodman rate dispute signals possible mass withdrawal
The Woodmen fraternal order faces a threatened exodus as camps push for a more satisfactory insurance rate. A member from the Stromsburg camp reports 85 percent could retire if rates rise, with some increasing from 85 cents to 300 dollars. The threat of a new jurisdiction looms, stressing the order’s impact on over a million and a quarter members nationwide. A Hastings coherence event is planned for March 20 as negotiations continue.
