MOTOR LIABILITY
COSTS MAY DROP
Continued Decline I'm Acct
dents Will Bring That
About, Boney Says
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In The Sir Walter Hotel,

Raleigh, April 9.-The decrease in
the number of automobile accidents
since January 1, especially the reduc-
tion in the number of fatal accidents,
in North Carolina is decidedly en-
couraging, and if this decrease con-
tinues will eventually bring about
reduction in automobile liability in
surance rates. Commissioner of Insur-
ance Dan c. Boney said today.
But no reduction in automobile in
surance rates can be expected before
1887, even if the ratio of losses is
much less this year than in previous
years, fBoney pointed out. For the
total loss ratio for 1886 must be OBJ
tanned before the insurance companies
can decide if any reduction in rates
is warranted. But the loss ratio must
fall below the present ratio of 81 per
cent before the companies will be like
,ly to consider making any reduction
sin rates, ssBoney said. The loss. ratio
in North Carolina on automobile liza
bility insurance was 500 per cent and
the average loss ratio during the past
five years has been 64.82 per cent, so
that it will require a very decided
drop in accidents and losses to bring
the loss ratio down to a point where
the insurance companies will be able
to reduce rates.
j Business Increasing.
IAN encouraging factor, however, is
that the insurance companies are do
ing more business in the State every
year and that this larger volume helps
to reduce the loss ratio" Boney said.
During 1885 the automobile liability
companies doing business in the State
showed a premium increase of about
100000 and should show an even lar
ger increase this year. But the factor
that will do more than anything else
to reduce accident insurance rates
is marked reduction in the number
of automobile accidents"
Lower Rate Would Help.
The insurance companies will I'M
doubtedly sell more liability insur-
ance in North Carolina if they will re-
duce their rates, Boney is convinced,
