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.

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

MR. and MRS. CHAS. FABSSLER and children visited last Sunday in the Grosset home.

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.
