Page 4-B Increase Proposed RALEIGH - The N. C. Rate Bureau has proposed an average increase of 10 per cent in the overall rate level for personal car in surance. The bureau proposed January 1, 1902, as the ef fective date for the new rates which are subject to approval by the state in surance commissioner. personal automobile insurance rate increases are restricted by law to a per centage that is governed by increases in the U. S. Consumer Price Index. The bureau’s filing will apply to all policies written voluntarily and the statutorily defined “clean risks” placed in the N. C. Reinsurance Facility. Hie facility filed new rates which will average 25.8 per cent higher than current rates. These are not subject to the statutory cap and can be charged to all facility policies except “clean risks” as defined by statute. ‘• Statistical data on paid claims, other expenses and : trends indicated the need for an overall average increase of 18 per cent, said Thomas S. Carpenter, chairman of the rate bureau. The bureau requested an aveage 3.4 per cent increase in the rate level for auto liability insurance and an average 19.7 per cent in crease in the rate level for the collision and com prehensive insurance coverages. “In the four years a statutory cap has been in effect, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has risen 50 per cent while personal auto insurance rates have been kept by law to an increase of 26 per cent,” said Car penter, who is general manager of Aetna Life & Casualty. " “Medical care, car repairs and maintenance, as measured by the CPI, have climbed 44 per cent each during the same period,” he continued. “The CPI car Sair and maintenance !x actually understates the increase in the kind of repairs that are involved in OWNER (Licensed Electrician) \ Call After 3:30 P.M. 2 PHONE 482-2608 © FOR FREE ESTIMATES © NEW WORK 2 hfc' CONTRACTOR j§ | FOR SALE ] - 1976 HONDA XR 76 I good condition E- 1977 Schwin I 10 Speed ft excellent condition - V ■ for information contact 1 Hayes Farms 482-2554 m - insurance claims. Crash repair costs have climbed even more, but the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics doesn’t measure those costs.” “Even with inflation moderating, by the time our rates can be implemented all of these indexes will have increased several additional percentage points,” he said. All companies selling personal auto insurance in North Carolina are required by law to be members of the N. C. Rate Bureau and to provide the operating data from which the bureau formulates standard rates for use by all companies.

Cornelia sent the write-up from The Chowan Herald. She also included a memorial donation for your son to our Compassionate Friends chapter, a group for bereaved parents. She of course wanted me to write to you and tell you of this remembrance. Please know that I care about your devastating loss of your beloved son, Luke. Like you, we lost our son, Sonny, at the same age in a tragic accident in 1973. We have fond memories of Edenton. We moved there in 1954 when Sonny was a year old. My husband was stationed at the Marine Corps Base, and we lived in the smallest house at the Fish Hatchery. Our 2% years there were marvelous ones -a highlight in a thirty year military career. We were members of the Methodist Church while Earl Richardson was minister, and I worked (along with Marginette Lassiter) with the Methodist Youth Fellowship. Our children, Carolyn and Sonny, were in Sunday School there. We organized The Compassionate Friends here in Tuscaloosa in April, 1980, and it has been a great help to us. For those who want to share in this manner, we have found this group an enormous aid as we do our grief work. There are now 250 chapters over the U. S.; the only one I see in North Carolina from records is at Hickory (Catawba Valley Chapter, 1743 30th St., N. E. RNAIKXRATE I ROLLBACK/wv.
