According TO John T. Hope assist
ant general manager Of the American
Automobile association. 40 per cent OF
the autos in tho United States arc in
aurcd for fire and theft aud only IS
per cent arc covered for liability and
property damage Tho reason for
this. hc contends. Is the high inBur.
anco rate maintained by tho private
companies
"ln 1875" Nays Hope. "Mnssnchu-
sctts drivers paid s6.29a.ooO In pre-.
miums on automobile insurance 10
private companies. Tho paid claims
that year amounted TO about $780,
600.
ono AUTOMOBILES club that has boon
selling It's own insurance TO members
for the last two years has found that
the actual cost OF insurance, includ-
ing claims paid, administration and
all inoidentals. amounted to ii per
cent OF tho premiums.
DO you SEQ what an enormous
profit IS reaped by the private com.
panIcs today?
There's the solution TO the in.
surance problems Lower the
present rates and more people
will insure their cars. IL Is like
lowering the price of any com.

with lower rates, and many moro
than tho present 40 per cent Of tho

points out It would be much easier for
