Chicago, Nov. 10.-Inquiry into the
sentiment among business men as TO
he ~advisability of the state of ILL
nois undertaking the regulation of fire
insurance rates has been concluded
by the commission appointed by Gov.
Deneen, and the investigators net in
Chicago today for an executive ses-
sion, at which they will complete
plans for the hearings which are ex-
pected to develop from underwriting
and rate-making experts h facts for
which the commission is seeking.
The commission feels that it has
now developed the average public
sentiment as to State regulation of
rates, which generally favors it. This
is largely because of the involved and
technical nature of the ~rate-making
problem. which the general public,
with many insurance men, cannot IN
derstanu. The insured is given a fig
ure which he is told he must pay. II
ne inquiries he is shown the details of
an elaborate schedule, making charg,
es for deficiencies in his risk from
the assumed standard and giving
credits for improvements. He does
not know whether those charges and
credits are correct or not. and is eqi-
ally at sea as to the basis rate upon
which they are built up. For that
reason, because he does not know and
cannot know, he asks That the State
intervene. compile the statistics and
see that he gets a fair show.
Most of the witnesses said they
would be satisfied with any rate ii
they We're only equally sure they
were not being gouged and that no fla
voritism was being shown Having
developed his sentiment, the commits.
sion will endeavor to learn from I'm
derwriters, rate making experts. eco
nonists and others whether 1t is pos
sible and advisable to meet IL, or
whether the same end can be reached
by changes in present underwriting
methods, with a minimum of State in
reference.
