An automobile insurance rate
Classification plan presented to
Insurance Commissioner Ed
Lanier today by the Insurance
Services Office (ISO) would
result in North Carolina drivers
receiving fairer auto insurance
rates, an ISO spokesman said,
The , proposed ratins
classification plan for North
Carolina would actually result in
rate cuts to many North
Carolina drivers, Dana GUI, ISO
assistant manager in Atlanta,
testified at a hearing in the
commissioner's office today,
The proposal wiU have to be
approved by the commissioner
before it can go in effect.
The proposal, called the 260
class plan, presently is in effect
in 39 states. The proposal
creates approximately 260
different classifications for
determining automobile in
surance rates. At the present
time, tnere . are nine such
classifications for North
Carolina drivers.
GUI said that although some
drivers would receive rate
reductions, other would set
increases under the proposal.
Reductions would be given to
farmers with no youthful
operators in the family, safe
drivers with clean records, good
This Is The Law
ADVERTISEMENTS AS
;'";.' OFFERS ; v
Is a contract made when one
orders merchandise from the
catalogue of a maU order house?
No. Catalogues containing
descriptions of articles for sale
at the prices quoted are not
offers. Instead, the customer's
order is the offer, for which the
further act of acceptance by the
merchant is necessary.
There Is no necessary im
plication that by the sending out
of the catalogue the maU order
house intends presently to be
bound to anyone who sends in an
order together with the price.
Here, as in the case of ad
vertisements, there is merely an
invitation for offers.
Goods displayed in show
windows with attached prices
are also invitations to do
business. They ask for offers
which the proposer has a right to
accept or reject as he pleases.
May an advertisement in a
newspaper ever be considered
as an offer?
Yes. They are, however, the
exceptions and not the general
rule.
Examples in which this
Situation is most often found are
advertisements of rewards of
the capture of a criminal, for the
winning of prize contests, for the
return of a lost article, or the
like.
A positive offer may be made
through an advertisement. For
example, u Jones advertises
that he wiU pay five dollars for
every copy of a certain book that
is sent to him, a contract results
and Jones is bound to pay five
dollars for every copy sent while
the offer is unrevoked.
Again, if a merchant ad
vertises that he has fifty articles
of a certain kind to seU at one
dollar each to the fifty
customers, the advertisement
would probably be construed as
a real and intentional offer to
seU to the first fifty customers at
the simulated price. The wor
ding indicates a serious intent to
contract. '
There is a published notice
that competitive bids are
requested for the construction of
some building or. for the fur
nishing of supplies. Must the
contract of the lowest bidder be
accepted?
No. The published notice is not
an offer. It is merely an in
vitation to builders or suppliers
to submit offers.
, The contract may be given to
either the highest or lowest
bidder, or there may be a
rejection of aU bids.

"If we searched for a single
wora to describe the basic
principle of this revision," Gill
said, "that word would be
equity. "v
"Groups of drivers that cost
the least in claims per insured
car pay the least in premiums
under the proposal." he said.
"Groups of drivers that cost the
most in claims pay the most,
Research through electronic
data processing has shown that
some groups of car owners
based upon claims experience
oeserve tower auiomomie in
surance rates than they have
been paying," Gill testified
une sucn group is senior
citizens over 65 years of age. Gill
said. They would receive across-
the-board five per cent discounts
in their automobile insurance
rates if the proposal is adopted
in norm Carolina.
uui pointed out tnat some
groups of drivers "have been
paying less than equity
demands.
"The purpose of this refined
classification system is to tailor
automobile insurance rate
premiums more closely to the
individual car owner," Gill said,
An example is the fact that
under the present North
Carolina system of
classification, women drivers
aren't classified separately
from men. They would be under
the new proposal. This is why
certain categories of women
drivers would get rate reduc
dons.

Frceze Takes Manr Formi
A Georgia chiropractor who (Department of Justice I
notified his patients that he
would have to raise his fees due
to increasing costs found that he
could not do so because of the
President's wage-price-rent
freeze.
One of his patients reported
the increase to a local office of
the Internal Revenue Service.
On an informal check by that
office the chiropractor said he
had misunderstood, and he
voluntarily reverted to his
original rates.
And not so far away in Atlanta
a self-styled gourmet com
plained to IRS that a specialty
sandwich shoppe raised its
prices early in September with
no obvious changes in size or
content of the sandwiches. In
this instance it was a simple
matter for the complainant to
support his charges. The sand
wich shoppe was regularly
patronized by several IRS
personnel. The reslut: another
case of voluntary compliance.
So goes the response around
the Southeast and the nation to
the President's wage-price-rent
freeze. These examples and
hundreds of others reported by
IRS to the Office of Emergency
Preparedness clearly indicated
the wide acceptance of the
freeze by individuals and
organizations, according to
William H. Hollaway, Director
of OEP, Region 4 here.
IRS District Offices in the 8
states of Region 4 have reported
1696 complaints of violations to
OEP, with reports of action
taken. In most instances, Mr.
Hollaway said, when an alleged
violation is called to someone's
attention and policies explained,
tne result is compliance. There
have been very few refusals,
and only in the case of the
Atlanta Falcons has the
Government taken legal action
thus far in the Southeast. The
