HUDSON TOUSE ONLY S|X-CYL|NDER MOTOR Saunders Announces New
 Policy of Big Automobile Manufacturers

The Hudson car will use a six-cylinder
 motor exclusively in all future models planned by the company. according to an announcement made yesterday by
 Bradley J. Saunders, local distributor for
 the Hudson car. MT. Saunders says the
 refinement and development of the six cylinder type of motor has led officials of the Hudson Motor Car company to
 believe that this. type surpasses any other
 in simplicity, low cost of upkeep, per- formance and general adaptability "The Hudson factory has built every
 other kind of motor from one to 12 cylinders" said MT. Saunders. "The rec ognised ability of the Hudson engineer Ing corps has been sufficient assurance of the dependability of the engines they constructed They have decided that the
 sx-cyinder type is supreme, and in fu- ture it will be used in all Hudson models"

 Of course. I got busy talking about something else at once, and the first thing l could think of was Shaw. People will always talk about Shaw or the wealth CT. and so I said something about "Pyg- malion," and Colonel West jumped into the breech quickly and saved the situa- ton by saying:

 I said I didn't. but would like to.

Aft4 the pIa. he waited to see Mrs. Campbell, and he said in his quick, abrupt way Why do you say such hideous words with such a beautiful voice?' She laughed and told him that she had even wanted to play a cockney girl, and at this he quickly de- clared he'd write a play for her and Sir George. 'Pygmayion was the result-sort of pot boiler, don't cher know, and il has proved jolly popular"

The New Insurance Law
ray an Insurance Mani

A casual reading Of the law bearing
upon insurance, recently enacted by
the Iowa legislature, may appear to
he in the interest of insurance COM
panies, but such is not the case. At
least, not directly.
The object of the legislation was
two-fold First, to put insurance conn.,
panies on the same plane as rail-
roads, express companies and other
concerns OF general public charac-
ter. preventing discrimination, and
placing the making of rates in the
hands of experts, under the supervi-
sion of the state.
Second, to create pecuniary in
centive in the property owner to pre-
vent fires. The last proposition is
the greatest as by 1t other conditions
inimical to the public welfare, will
be removed.
In the last twenty years it has be-
come a startling fact that hundred
times more property has been de-
stroyed in the United States by pre-
ventab1e fires than in any other SINH

lar territory on the earth. The idea
has become general that it is better
to insure than to prevent, but states
men and sober-minded business men
are thinking otherwise-hence laws
tending to the prevention Of fires are
being enacted This accomplished,
even in small degree, will lessen the
cost of insurance. The state pro-
poses to see to it that rates are re-
duced in proportion to the reduction
Of losses. No one taking second
thought will find fault with such a
law.
Here in Keokuk, more than in most
other cities in the state, rates have
been unequal. Inspections have been
regularly made and promulgated by
the Iowa Inspection bureau, but lit
tie concern and attention have been
given to them by companies and
agents. To start out with a basis.
the legislature has made these rates
the states rates, and after July first,
proposes to punish the agent who
writes or offers to write policy at
any other rate, and the property own
er who seeks to induce an agent to
violate the law, may not be very far
from a law breaker himself.
How are these rates made? Seized
ules or tables, compiled mostly by In
surance departments, of losses oc-
curing in different classes of proper
ty are taken as basis. The per cent
OF such losses originating from the
simplest preventable causes are elm
mated, and a normal or basis rate is
obtained. Say for a frame building
occupied for ordinary store proposes,
3-5 of 1 per cent or sixty cents on the
hundred dollars. To this additions
are made for surroundings and de-
fects, and rate of $1.40 is promul-
gated to the owner and all insurance
companies and associations legally
transacting business in the state.
The owner or occupant, thinking he
is being charged too much, may ap-
peal to the insurance department.
when he will receive statement or
schedule of what makes his rate

rate of sixty cents, has been added
twenty cents for exposing hazards,
