With the rate increase North Carolina still ranks 20th among the 22 eastern states and the District of Columbia. That means you pay less for your auto liability protection than motorists in 19 other eastern states. A rate increase for automobile liability insurance was badly needed in North Carolina. Before the recent rate increase, auto mobile liability insurance rates had increased only 2.8 percent over a four-year period. And we all know how much more the cost of repairing damaged cars and the cost of hospital and medical care increased during that same period. Independent insurance Agents of North Carolina.

Betty Pittman Biddix, 94, of Route 3, Burnsville, died in an Asheville hospital Thursday morning after a long illness. She is survived by a brother Morgan Pittman of Route 3, Burnsville and several nieces and nephews. Funeral services were held Friday at 2:30 p. m. in the Chapel of Holcombe Brothers Funeral Home. Rev. James Lamb officiated and burial was in the Cane River Church Ce- metery. Because rates had not gone up in proportion to the cost ot settling claims many insurance companies did not want to write auto liability policies. This restricted insurance -naticet caused problems tor many motorists and forced many motor ists to purchase coverage through the Assigned Risk Plan Adjustments in the premium rates should make it eader for you to purchase liability coverage and easier to stay out of the assigned risk plan. Although nobody likes to see prices go up, the rate incre ise for liability insurance helps solve some insurance problems for many motorists in the long run. So look around at other states. Then be thankful you live in North Carolina. \ P' fir# CLYDE EVANS Clyde J. Evans, 69, of Burnsville died in an East Ten nessee veterans hospital Wed nesday night after a long ill ness.
