Texas Investment Tops in Southwest Offshoots
J M Bryan of Jefferson Standard Life Insurance says Texas offers the best investment field in the southwest as the industry modernizes rapidly. He chair's the finance committee and must place about 1 million dollars weekly into investments across southern industries. The firm, the largest life insurer in the south, has over 900 million dollars in force and around 18 million loaned to newspapers. Bryan notes life firms now loan on almost any asset to revitalize industries, including filling stations, mills, ranches, and farms, marking a shift from banking and stock investments. He praises North Carolina’s road program since 1920 and contrasts Texas returns with other southern states.
