Replacement Costs Have Pisen

Replacement Costs Have Pisen
Have you increased your fire
insurance during the past IL
years? If not, you're probably un-
insured. AS rule of thumb, you
should carry an amount of fire
insurance equal to 300 Of today's
replacement cost of the house, ex-
elusive of lot.
What about furniture, clothing,
and other household goods? To be
adequately covered, you generally
need insurance on possessions
equal to 500 to 500 of the
amount you carry on the house
itself.
Fortunately, fire insurance rates
are very inexpensive and tend to
go down as fire projections in
crease.
Buy long-term fire insurance. A
three-year policy Gnstead of three
one-year policies) gives you six
months free insurance; five
year policy, one year free.
If the premium on long-term
policy looks too big for your bud
get, finance it. One time payment
plan in which more than 800 fire
and casualty companies partici-
pate, permits consolidation of fire
and all other home and auto in
surance premiums into easily
budgeted installments. You pay
interest, but you still save.
Package" Protection Costs Less
1t is now possible to buy all in
surance projections for the home,
including comprehensive personal
liability, in a single PACKAGE
policy. You save as much as 20%
over what the individual policies
would have cost.
Your agent can tell you how to
convert what you now carry into
one of the new packages, called
''homeowner's' or comprehensive
dwelling policies.
Don't wait for your agent to call
and tell you about these new
plans. Mine didn't, so l called him
and ended up with a package pol
icy which added considerable COW
erage to what l already had-at a
total saving of 81 year.

There's no limit to the insur-
ance you can buy, if you try to
insure against every eventuallty.
But if you keep your perspective,
and also take time to learn about
trends in insurance and the new
kinds of policies, you can often
buy much better protection than
you now have for little Or no more
than you pay now.
To go about it sensibly, you
need to ask yourself, where am /
most exposed to possible financial
disasteT-not the kind of losses !
could absorb with close budgeting
for a while, but the kind that
would wipe me out?"
Three policies are "musts" un-

WASHINGTON LETTER
More Moons Than Venus

While we have our doubts that
they're cheaper by the dozen, that's
the number of earth satellites the
II. S. Government will launch into
the wild blue yonder during the
International Geophysical Year,
which occurs from 1857 to 1858.
These 30 inch metal balls. stuffed
with sundry instruments, will
weigh from 20 to so pounds. Each
will be hoisted about 300 miles
above the earth by an eleven ton,
three-stage rocket, touched off from
the Florida sands and inclined to
drop its spent sections in the South
Atlantic.
On reaching its ceiling. the satel-
lite will be travelling about $4,000
mph enabling it to circle the earth
every our-and-a-haIf and may
stay in its orbit for weeks or
months or even longer, sending
back meanwhile various data on
what it's like up there. They will
also report from that vantage
point, say the experts, what it's
like down here, giving US better
dope on our geography than the
map-makers have.
The cost. as voted by the House
Appropriations committee, will be
SIS, ,2f2,000.
Actually, the scientists expect to
make eighteen of these moonlets,
hope to launch IL and pray that at
least eight of them will stay up
there for while. Bat If only one
does, we shall have definite proof
that the world really is round.
