Auto Insurance Writers Association
Says Increase Will Average 25
Per Cent.
New automobile insurance rates
will come into effect on February
1st, and according to a statement is- I
sued by the Canadian Automobile i
Underwriters' Association, the in-
crease, in Ontario and Quebec, when
applied over all lines of coverage I
and all territories, will average out
at approximately 25 per cent. No
increase is planned on fire and theft
rates; collision rates go up approxi- I
mately - 25 per cent., and public lia- 1
bility and property damage rates,
50 per rent.
It is explained that pending the•
preparation of the new rating man -1
nal, it is difficult to tabulate a corn -1
prison of the old premiums with
the new ones as applied to particu-
lar snakes and models of cars, but i
on the average light cars, where the 1
premium in 1928 was $35.20 for a j
policy covering public liability and 1
property damage (standard limits)
colhaion ($0 deductible) and fire'
and theft, the premium will in 1929
be $45.10, an increase of $9.90.1
There will be no limitation in the
cover granted by the present stand-
ard policy form. 1
The statement says that a definite!
and steady upward trend in the loss!
experience each year is largely duel
to five causes; trairic eongestion, the 1
Ontario Highway census for Octob
er, 1927, showing an increase of 27
per cent. over the same period for
1926; improved mechanism of auto-
mobiles, resulting in guaranteed
maximum speeds, hitherto unknown;
steadily increasing scale in the to
mounts of damage awards made in
'the courts; present day "claim con-
sciousness" of the public resulting in
claims being made on motorists in
respect of accidents regarding which
no demand would have been made
in the past; increase in operation of
ears under winter conditions.
It is also pointed out the differen-
ce between the number of accidents
on the North American continent in
1911 and 1927. In the former year
there were 2,043 deaths, while in
the latter year there were 26,665.

Quite a few such shipments have

SENDING MONEY
Stamps are usually accepted for
the fraction of a dollar. Never send
personal cheques to strangers. Mon-

ROUGHENED NAILS
Never use a file, knife or sharp
instrument to clean the fingernails.
It only roughens the inside of the
nails and causes then to pick up
dirt more quickly. Use an orange
stick or a stiff brush, hot water and
i plenty of soap.
STYLISH MOIRE
Moire is correct for afternoon
things now. A geranium moire frock •
has its skirt's fullness massed at the
back in flat rosettes and its long
tight sleeves finished with real lace
ruffles. A touch of the lace is at the
throat.
