Baker. former third baseman OF the

played third base for Upland of the
Delaware County League this after
noon against Rockdale. Two thousan nd
fans packed the Upland grounds and
watched every movement OF the former
big Lacquer.
Baker was unfortunate in the very
first inning. 1t could not have been
stage fright, and it probably was
lack of the usual southern training
that caused Baker to make a wild
heave far over second base on his very
first chance. The throw let Rockdale
score and was responsible for the visit
ors getting two runs. In the second
inning Baker made hit, tripled in the
fourth and scored. He was thrown out
on an easy grounder in the fifth.

his first appearance at bat. He drove

STATE REGULATION OF INSURANCE
RATES AND RATING BUREAUS

After July 4, when the new law
regulating fire insurance rates is eff

! risks Of same class and hazard

partment by rating bureaus which

construction and occupancy. Proper
ty owners may secure a copy OF the
survey Of their buildings by applica
ton to rating bureaus. and are thus
enabled to remedy defects in con-
struction. reduce the hazard and
know exactly the reduction that will
be allowed in the insurance rate. In
event the rate finally fixed by the
rating bureau is considered discrim.
inatory or unjust, the law provides
for an appeal to the insurance de-
partment Of the state, which is au-
thorized to investigate same and fix
a rate which is not discriminatory or
unjust, said action being subject to
court appeal by either party in
terested.
The new statute was recommended
by the national convention of insur-
ance commissioners, which spent sew
eral years Investigating fire insur-
ance conditions throughout the coun-
try. Similar laws were enacted In
Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma
Michigan, North Carolina and Wash
ington, and Kansas and Kentucky
have heretofore regulated fire in
surance rates.
The question of state supery sion Of
fire insurance rate-making is simpli-
fed by the recent decision of the
United States supreme court in the
Kansas case, holding that ''the
business of fire insurance is so far af-
fected with a public interest as to
justify legislative regulation of its
rates" This is one Of the most far
reaching decisions of recent years
and marks the area when public rate
making replaces private rate-making.
The effect of this decision clearly, is
to place fire insurance rates upon the
same basis as the rates of railroads
telephone, gas, electric light, and 9TH
er public utility companies.
The problem of an equitable appor-
tionment of the necessary contribu-
tons of those who join together in
payment of fire losses has long per-
picked the insurance world and
vexed the insuring public. Public
sentiment has changed from regard
ing fire insurance as wager on the
part of the owner that it would burn,
to the recognition of the fact that
the fire premiums merely constitute
common fund for the payment of
losses From the latter point of
view. any discrimination in the COM
mon contributions to be made to
such fund is necessarily unjust
Insurance rates must be made "a
by companies, without regard to oc-
cupancy hazard, physical defects or
