HOW much have automo-
bile insurance rates increas-
ed? much to replace as in

e pecaiise accident costs have been soars
ing.

A wrecked car costs two to three times as
—a damaged

INSUBARCE

ein relation to other car costs they've
gone down.
Each $100 of insurance carried takes a
smaller portion of the motorist's dollar than
ever before.

@ But cars are more stpshsive.
You can't insure the $2,400 car of today as
cheaply as the $850 car of 1939.

@So, in dollars, how much have auto
rates gone up?
Bn average of 307 for Public Liability and
Property Damage. An average of 60%
full coverage.

WHAT attects the cost of
automobile insurance?
@ The-ntmber of accidents
@ The average cost of accidents
@ The costs of doing business
@The profit or loss of the insurance
company

WHY have rates gone up in
deliar cost?
® Because accident rates have been soar-
Today one person is killed every four hours
in Canada — one person is injured every

fifteen minutes — a fender is smashed every
two minutes.

£ CANADA

ERATION

car ‘cosis twice as much to repair — those
fenders every two minutes cost three times
as muc
@Because medical and hospital costs
ve increased an estimated 165%.
The bill for injuries is the highest in history.
@ Because average Canadian earning
power is up 150%.
That means higher payments to seitle “lost
time” claim:

THEN HOW have insurance

companies kept rates from
going much higher?
@ By cutting operating costs.
Overhead is higher but operating costs per
vehicle have been slashe:
@ By losing money.
Auto insurance companies paid out
$65,000,000 in claims last year. They lost
$6,3000,00 doing it.

THE REMEDY

@ Reduce accidents.
When the accident rate goes down — unless
the cost of each accident goes ‘way up —
insurance rates will go down too. Compe-
tition makes that certain.

REMEMBER —
The accident thst ¢ doesn’t happen never
costs anybody a dime

the Grosset home.

DAVE MULLIGAN recently .pur-
chased six cows, and Dick Caldwell

Hinche.

MR. and MRS. GLEN MacMILLAN
called in the Leavitt home Wednes-
day evening.

SEVERAL people are planning on
attending the Festival at Kamloops
this month. It is quite an outing for
the children. Mrs. Rosa King and
Mrs. Noveta Leavitt have been en-
gaged to cook for the youngsters
while they are in Kamloops.

THERE was quite a mixup over
the chairs used for the picture show
at Bridge Lake. The chairs crigindlly
belonged to the Legion, and as Legion
activities here have been temporarily
suspended, some well meaning per-
son gathered up the chairs and sent
them to the 93 Mile to be shipped
back to Victoria. Acting promptly,
Mrs. Myra Deane-Freeman and Pat
Deane-Freeman, wired Legion heaa-
quarters and got permission for the
Community Glub to purchase the
chairs, which arrived back from the
93 Mile in plenty of time for the
Tuesday night picture show.

SOME OF THE MEN of the neigh-
borhood have been busy putting up
ice.

OUR LOCAL road foreman, Mr.
F. M. Bell, also ‘Slim’ Grosset and
Fred Hart have been doing some
work around Decca Lake way.

QUITE A FEW people from this
neighborhood were at 100 Mile on
Tuesday of last week.

OUR ROADS are getting very
muddy, especially the side roads.
But we have been having wind and
sunny days, so they should soon be
ary.
