Stock Prices Decline;
Losses Are Light, but
Selling Is Persistent
sy the Associated Pres.

NEW YORK, June 21.-Quietly
and cautiously the stock market
today declined moderately.
Selling was persistent through
out the list, but there was no con-
centration of pressure in any one
of the major divisions.
The most extensive loss halted
before reaching the So point in
the main group Of leaders. There
were infrequent gains, mostly
brought on by corporate develop
ments.
Oils, rails, motors. steels, rub
bers. mining shares and chemicals
all lined up on the depressed side
of the market.
Utilities held about unchanged
and narroWness was the rule in
the air lines. motion pictures and
gold shares.
Gulf Oil in sharp contrast to it's
own group and the rest of the
market added more than a point.
1t has been a recent favorite
among oils. Some analysts con-
tended Gulf had been tagging be-
hind the rest of the market and
other oils. despite it's big gains.
United Air Lines added a frac-
tion after declaration of a divi-
dend of rs cents. Last year it
paid a lone 75-cent dividend IN
December.
Stocks going lower included
Southern Railway, Southern Pa
|ciflc, Sinclair Oil, Standard Oil
IN. j., Cities Service, Johns
Manville, American Telephone,
American Smelling, American
Cyanamid. Eastman Kodak, West
inghouse Electric, Bethlhem Steel.

Railroad and utility loans head
ed a lower movement in the cor
Iporate bond market. Government
securities were steady in the over

Casually Men Declare
Liberal D. {. Juries
Help Boost Rates
By Donald B. HodIey

The recent 40 per cent increase
in bodily injury rates of Wash
ington casualty underwriters en-
phasized again a principle too little
understood by the public-that
losses determine the rates in cas-
ualty insurance.
A bulletin from the District
Association of Insurance Agents
lists a number Of reasons for the
higher rates as follows:
/. Increased medical costs which
Awe followed inflationary trends.
q. Higher court awards. since
courts have recognized that more
money is needed for persons dis
abled in accidents as a result of
the higher cost of living.
3. Greater demands of claim
ants, rejecting loss of high wages
as well as more expensive medi-
cal treatment.
4. Higher accident frequency.
Even allowing for imitation,
some recent jury awards have
been excessive, association leaders
contend. With the best of in
tentions. juries too often feel that
insurance companies have plenty
of money to pay and they allow
sympathy to override common
sense. What they fail to under
stand, is that the higher pay
ments must be met with higher
premiums. The public pays the
bill.
