COMMISSIONER TAILOR EXPRESS
VIEWS Of INSURANCE RATES

"I am not now and never have
been in favor of rate making by the
state. So far as fire insurance rates
are concerned, believe the subject is
entirely too intricate and technical to
warrant the state in attempting to for
mulate rate schedules. Nor has that
sort of innovation worked we'll in op-
Grafton. But this does not mean that
the people of North Dakota have no
rights in the premises. They have.
They have right to know whether
the rates which they are compelled to
pay for fire insurance are fair and
equitable or not. If the business of
insurance is of quasi-public nature
and it is-then the public is entitled
to at least some quasi-information on
the subject of rates.
"Fire insurance rates in North Da-
kota are determined and promulgated
by the general inspection company OF
Minneapolis, MINI. But property own
ers in this state do not know and have
no way of knowing whether these
rates are fair and equitable, considered
as a whole or in respect to the various
c!assifcations. The entire matter is a
closed book. The assured is supposed
to pay the premumi ask no questions,
and look pleasant. So in respect to
The enormous increase in the rates
charged for fidelity and surety bonds
an increase which seems to have been
agreement between the companies
writing this class of business.
This SORT of thing must be justified, or
the companies may expect troua1e

s4ua-. deal; nor do share in the
rrr:i;ndlcc which is too commonly on.
tf"tainel towards big corporations lust
because they are big. But we should
have Light. Let the insurance cnn'
l'anics open their books and show
cause. The people demand this"

Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 6-That the
business of insurance in North Dakota
is drift straight toward the rocks
and shoals of state regulation of rates,
if not state rate making itself was the
opinion expressed by Insurance Com
mismissioner W. c. Tailor today. This
fact may not be apparent to the cas-
ual observer, said Mr.. Taylor, nor
even to the insurance companies, but
the straws showing which way thu
wind is blowing are flying thick All
fast around the department Of insur-
arce just the same.
"Take the fire insurance rates for
example. A good deal of re-rating
has been done in this state during tho
past year, and from inquiries, COM
plants and protests coming to this Of
fee it would seem that in each case
the rates arc being revised upward.
If such is the case, can that sort of
revision be justifeds
''During the year 1912 the average
loss ratio in this state was a fraction
over SO per cent. In other words,
for every dollar paid the fire insur-
ance companies for premiums, SO cents
We're returned by them in payment of
losses That would leave At cents out
of each dollar for operating expenses
and profit. Statistics show that the
operating expenses of all fire insur
anee companies doing business in the
United States during 1912 averaged
$50 per cent, SO that on the basis
of last years business companies
operating in North Dakota earned or
saved s.4 per cent over and above all
expenses. This saving was on the un-
derwriting end of the business alone,
and does not take into account the
profits arising from the investment of
capital and interest on surplus and
unearned premium account.
Auolutt COuS&tsEId LlOu: L ne Ids I
legislative assembly enacted law
establishing fire marshal department
and this department has been in active
operation for several months. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that its activi
ties have tended to minimize both the
physical and moral hazard attendant
upon the fire insurance business. The
cost of maintaining this department
which is not iderable-imposes
no additional burden upon the fire
companies with the exception of do
nestle mutua!s. An increase of rate!
in the face Of this additional measure
Of protection would seem to requir'
some explanation, to say the least.
:'An action lies been commenced il
the supreme court the purpose Of whicl
is to restrain this department from
putting into operation the state bond
ing law enacted by the Thirteenth leg
islative assembly, and during the pend
ency of that action it would be map
propriatc for me to discuss the matter
However,, it should be remembered tina
the Judgment of the court will prob
ably turn, not upon the intrinsic mer
its of the act itself, but upon its cor
stitutionality. Whatever may be tn
outcome of this litigation, the signi
ficant fact will remain that the prem
ium rates for fidelity and surety bond
were increased several hundred pc
cent, as direct result Of which tn
state interviewed and said it would vi
dertake to bond counties, cities, town
townships and school districts againf

Tell the People
The Price
BY HOLLAND.

nNE Of the first questions
" asked when the question
of buying goods comes up Is.
what does it cost?' The
man who is to pay the bill
wants to know what that bill
will be The price is also a
very good line on quality.
Sane men know that goods
are not offered at prices away
below their value unless
there is a good reason for the
sacrifice.
Consequently the curiosity
regarding the price is legiti-
mate and should be satisfied.
The man looking for house
and able to pay only $50 a
month rent is not interested
in one that rents for $50. no
matter how fine it is or how
great a bargain. He would
be wasting his time going to
inspect such a residence.
Conversely. the man who is
able and willing to pay $50
month rent for q house would
not care to look at one Offer
ed for $40.
Whether buying eggs.shoes,
molasses. nails. toothpicks or
automobiles. the buyer wants
to know the price-that is. II
he expects to pay the bill.
and merchants do not care to
sell goods to the man who
has no such intention.
Bearing this in mind. the
advertiser should not be
afraid to quote prices. The
price will have to be told
some time. Why keep 1t a
secret?
