INSURANCE RATES ARE MADE BY THE PUBLIC They Mill Be Lowered When the Public Permits, Says Mr. Wade. Asheville, May 19.—Insurance rates are made by the public and not by in* surance companies or agents, Stacey W. Wade, state insurance eommis siener, of Raleigh, told the North Car olina Association of Insurance Agents ih their annual convention here to day. There is a wide-spread misun derstanding on this matter, he aaid, declaring that there are many who think insurance rates are made by the agents through some secret under standing, or by the companies in some similar manner. But this is not the case, he maintained, citing ‘instances showing that the public is directly re sponsible for the rates charged. “It is not difficult to demonstrate that more than 75 per cent, of all fires and of all accidents are due to carelessness on the part of the pub lic. Many experts figure that fully 90 per cent, are due to carelessness. Since it is true that insurance com panies cannot continue to furnish protection against any form of haz ard unless there is sufficient income to meet the outgo, it follows that rates must be high enough' to provide reasonable compensation for the cap ital engaged in the business. There is no getting around the fact that the public is the great rate-maker and that insurance rates will be lowered when the public permits them to be,” Mr. Wade declared. The recent action of Ihe Southeast ern Underwriters' Association in in creasing fire insurance rates 10 per cent, oil mercantile buildings and 25 per cent, on certain types of manu facturing plants was touched upon by Mr. Wade, who declared that if rates do not appear to be justified, af ter a careful investigation of the mat ter by his department, steps will be taken to reduce them, but if justified, they should be allowed to stand. The fact that losses from fire In Xorth Carolina are declining, while in the nation as a whole a tremendous increase has been noted, was pointed with pride by Mr. Wade, who showed that the losses in the state in March amounted to but $830,990 while in Marcli, 1925. the loss was $948,279. Os this amount only $205,177 was for residence, the remainder being scattered among mercantile and man ufacturing plants. The fact was also cited that an increase in rates works even a greater hardship upon the agent than upon the man who pays it, as it makes it more difficult $ $ Specials $ $ Four 35c Cans Sliced or Grated Pineapple __ **' * Three 50c Cans Bartlett Pears in Syrup Four 35c Cans Red Pit ted Cherries for *** * All Good Quality Packs Cabarrus Cash Grocery Co. ■■■■■■■■■■ ■ " ' ' " ■ ■" INDOOR SPORTS THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE to sell the insurance, which is libel); to be taken out in smaller amounts. Attention was also called to the. j(*ct that rates on residences had not been increased. The opportunity of the insurance man for constructive work irt his paj tienlnr community was nlso stressed by Mr. Wade. He cited the splendid opportunity at hand at all times to teach the dpetrine of fire prevention and thus pave the way for lower rgtes. 1 “Next, 1 would have you men be come the bulwarks of progress in yoor communities that you should become. I notice in the lapels of many of your coats the buttons of many service clubs—Rotary, Kiwanis, Uivithn. | Lions and other splendid organisa tions.

He also urged the insurance men to line up solidly behind their local • chambers of commerce and realize to the fullest extent the responsibility that rests upon them in their local communities. He also eommetxßd ‘ the move for better business stand ards among insurance men for prompt collection of premiums. “On the whole. I feel that the past year has been a good one, for there has been less trouble and fewer com plaints, as far as my office is con cerned. than ip years.” he concluded.
