SUNSTROKE NOT ACCIDENT
Ohio Insurance Commissioner Rules
1t Out of Policies in Letter
TO Companies.

Columbus, Ohio Insurance Commits
sioner Vorys has issued letter to all
accident insurance companies doing
business In Ohio, Sc Ing forth his ruling
that death by suEstroke, freezing, sep
tlcaemla, and hydrophob'a inaamuch as
they may or may not result from acct
dental causes, cannot be legally included
In an accident policy.
This letter is the result of the com
missioner being asked 20 pass on the
legality Of clause in the policy written
by q company doing business In Ohio
In which death by sunstroke was called
an accident. Other companies desired
to incorporate the clause lie made a
searching study OF the causes OF sun
stroke.
Sunstroke comes from the overstim
ulatiOn Of the heat center in the brain,
and is caused by thu body heat being
maintained at n high point during Il
number OF hours
The alillctlon gets its name from tho
fact that the victim falls suddenly. II
sunstroke was declared an accident, ap
opleXy would be in the same class, Mr.
Nurys says.
The investigation revealed the fact
that sunstroke, contrary to popular be.
lief, comes often In the night when the
suns rays are hid by the earth.
