Makers Of Rates
Again let us ask, Mr.. Motorist, who
makes the automobile insurance rates?
The answer is, the motortst as the
driver of an automobile or as an IN
dividual citizen serving on jury.
How can we lower the insurance
rates? The answer is, by individual
effort toward safe and sane motoring
and intelligent jury duty. In addition,
it is suggested that when the motorist
sees evidence Of reckless driving on
the part of another motorist, he take
the time and trouble to note the license
number Of the offending car and write
10 our bureaus of motor vehicles, re-
citing the circumstances, which effort

Because the success of the automobile

the general prosperity of the Nation, it
Is interesting to all of us at this time
to speculate on the volume of business
we may look forward to in 1888. So
intimately are the fortunes of both
bound together that what affects one,
affects the other and. accordingly, any
appraisal Of the future of the automo-
bile business must be dependent on
consideration Of the future of general
business.
1t is difficult, if not impossible, to ar
rive at the size of this potential market
but if the automobile industry in the
next few years could place cars in the
hands of just half the number of people
who need and want them, we would be
doing an excellent volume of business
The story of the urbanite who went
to the country for an outing might ap-
ply. After four days of steady rain, he
found his way to his hosts barn and

tell us the story, and as it is quite
obvious that insurance premiums follow
accidents either on an increasing or
decreasing scale, it follows that to
answer the question who makes the

the accidents?" Obviously the inSur-
ance companies do not cause the ac-
cidents.
It has been said that the pedestrian,
generally speaking. is the motorist who
has his car parked around the corner
1t might likewise be said that the jury
man who passes upon automobile ac-
cident cases in our courts and who
apparently delights in granting ver-
diets in outrageous sums for the most
minor injuries, is in most cases a
motorist when out Of the jury box, and
motorists should bear in mind the fact
that they, as jurymen, are spending
their own money when they grant high
and excessive verdicts, because while
the verdict which they render is paid

RISE IN INSURANCE RATES GIVES
ANXIETY TO MANY MOTORISTS
Decrease Held Possible Only by Safe Driv-
ing Of Car and Intelligent
jury Service.
By THOMAS J. KEEFE,
General Manager. American Motorists
ASsociation


The recent rise In automobile in
surance rates has caused a great deal
of comment, and companies have been
severely criticized for what is often
termed constantly increasing rates"
1t Is obvious that the average
motorist gives very little thought to the
why's and wherefores Of insurance rates,
being satisfied to know that the rate
either decreases or increases, and being
very much satisfied when the rates
when the rates increase.
That rates have generally increased
over the last 10 years Is true, and no
one views this fact with more alarm
than do the insurance companies, and
it may be of interest to policyholders
to pause a moment and reflect on the
causes Of these increases.
OF Two Amounts.
Any insurance premium Is made up
primarily Of two amounts, one to take
care of anticipated losses, and the
other to take care Of expense of ac-
QUESTION, management and administra-
ton It must be admitted that the
latter item, that OF expense. is neces-
sary, as it costs money to do business,
and, generally speaking, it must be con-
ceded that the loading factor for doing
business is approximately correct, for
as both the loss and loading factors
are the same for all companies, it
naturally follows that the improperly
managed company suffers if 1t devotes
too much of its premium to manage
ment and overhead costs
We are therefore chiefly interested
In that portion of the premium which
is promulgated for the payment Of
losses. That portion of the premium is
based on past experience Of all COM
panies doing Q like business, and on
past experience the anticipated losses
for the coming year are estimated. II
the losses exceed those anticipated, the
additional disbursements to settle these
losses must come out Of surplus.
According to the national bureau,
the year 1881 produced losses which,
on a countrywide average, exceeded
the anticipated loss by 38 per cent In
one State the losses were 219 per cent
of those anticipated. With this know
ledge. who can be surprised at the in
crease in rates?
Newspapers Tell Story.
Endless statistics could be cited to
show the tremendous increase in auto
mobile accidents, deaths and injuries
over the past 10 years, but we do not

worth in its merchandise. 1t Is spend
sisting that 1t receive true value for Its

Motor cars are being examined more
closely than ever before by prospective
purchasers who are seeking quality and
who refuse to be beguiled by bargain
price tags on automobiles any more
than on shoes.
Quality Not Sacrificed.
1t may very well prove fortunate for
the entire country that the motor car
industry has steadfastly refused to sac
rifice quality for the appeal of low
price. Efforts have even been redoubled
to make automobiles still better than a
year ago. This lends greater stability
to the worlds biggest industry at a
critical time
The inherent built-in worth of the
motor car Of today Is greater than 1t
has ever been before Every usable
science has been called upon to help
the industry produce a better auto
mobile.
Marked success has been obtained
from intensified engineering effort
Improvements which have been given
the automobile in the last two years
exceed in Importance and number
those which have been made in all the
years since motors were first started
by electricity.
Cars Greatly Improved.
Cars Of today are safer, quieter,
easier to handle, more beautiful, more
restful and immeasurably better in
performance and In their ability to
cover far greater mileage with much
less wear and consequent less main
tenance cost.
This is the motor car industry's an
