Spectator Discusses
Auto Insurance Rates
Insurance rates go up, like
everything else. Rail Road rates
go up, inter-urban bus rates go
up, insurance goes up. At the
moment I’m considering automo
bile accident and liability insur
ance; I don’t know about fire and
life rates.
Why do automobile insurance
rates advance? Is is just the
whim of some company, or some
rating bureau that fixes the
rates? Like many of my breth
ren, I wonder about rates. In
Columbia, I’m associated very
pleasantly with some Insurance
apostles, and in the town where
I live, the insurance men are
like a gentle zephyr breathing
o'er a bank of violets, or some
thing like that. At least, they are
the salt of the earth.
I once raised a question: A
filling station, called X sold gas
oline, oil, grease and the numer
ous peps and pops that will make
a Model T dash down the road
like the latest 8-cylinder, 190
horsepower sky-gazer, doing 90 an
hour, with no oil consumption and
40 miles to the gallon; or is it
40 gallons to the mile? If you
buy gasoline on credit it will
seem 40 gallons to the mile when
the bill comes in and all those
miles are forgotten. Of course
you didn’t run all those miles;
the speedometer is unreliable.
Now filling station X also had
a small stock of groceries. Across
the street, station “B” had all
that—gasoline, pep, pop, grease,
groceries, air and water. The rate
on “X” was twice as high as the
rate on “B”. Not having a mind
attuned to the mysteries of such
abstruse matters I never was
able to fathom the depths of that
reasoning. By the way, do you
know that a filling station is a
better risk than a grocery store?
Probably rice has more explosive
force than gasoline. You may re
member the bride who planned to
roast a pig and filled him with
raw rice and put him in the
oven? It is said that they found
most of her kitchen in a neigh
bor’s yard, as a result of the
swelling of that rice. So you never
can tell. r
About the automobile rates:
did you ever see a driver “start
off’’ with a rabbit leap? Some
drive in that manner. And then
when they jam down the brakes
for a sudden stop, leaving tell
tale marks on the paving. And
the driving between the start
and stop is about what you
might expect—turning corners at
great speed; jumping ahead of
everybody else, cutting in under
the next man. Well, there is al
ways a pay-day. All of us, though,
pay for that kind of driving. So
here is what is said:
“Death and injury on the high
way—plus the climbing cost of
fixing a smashed car—are send
ing insurance rates skyrocketing
for 20 million insured auto own
ers.
Today 107 leading insurance
companies will hike rates in 12
states by as much as 30 per cent
on policies covering injury to
persops and property by automo
biles, f In the past two months
these companies have been grant
ed “emergency” increases in ten
other states by regulatory auth
orities. They’re expected to raise
their charges in most of the re
maining states very shortly.

National Safety Council tell the
reason for soaring insurance
rates: 35,000 killed last year by
autos and more than 1,200,000 in
jured, with the 1951 pace run
ning ahead of that. The figures
have mounted year by year as
more cars crowded on the high
ways. As recently as 1945, the
killed numbered 28,076, the in
jured one million.
“Traffic deaths during the
past 12 months were about threa
times the combat deaths among
U. S. Forces in Korea since hos
tilities started.
“In the 51 years and six
months since the first U. S. auto
mobile death occured at the turn
of the century, nearly 980,000
persons have lost their lives in
traffic, accidents. That’s just a
bit under the nation’s total mili
tary deaths of 998,000 in all its
wars in the 176 years and two
months since the Battle of Lex
ington.”
Speeding, drunken driving, il
legal passing and failing to give
the right of way caused 23,000 of
last year’s highway deaths.
“Excessive speed is the big
killer, of course, accounting for
more than half of fatal acci
dents.”
Inflation has of course helped
drive rates higher—for repairing
damages to both humans and
property.
According to figures compiled
by the Association of Casualty
and Surety Companies, the aver
age cost of settling claims for
bodily injuries is 54 per cent
above that of ten years ago, while
on property damage it is up 124
per cent. Hospital fees are 75
per cent to 175 per cent higher
than a decade back. The aver
age court verdict in 1950 in some
localities was more than 90 per
cent higher than in 1940.
A study by the National Bnreau
of Casualty Underwriters shows
that a bodily injury claim which
cost about $119 to settle during
the first quarter of 1950 cost
about $135 in the first three
months of this year.
Design of modern cars has
been a financial blow also, insur
ance men claim. A leaflet soon to
be placed, in all policies to be is
sued by members of the Associa
tion of Casualty & Surety com
panies has this to say about to
day’s auto: “In 1940, a fender was
just that and nothing more.
Now a sizeable part of the side
of a car, it includes a headlight
or taillight. Yesterday’s minor
sideswipe is today’s major repair
job. Elaborate grillwork, curved
windshields and tinted glass on
newer models mean bigger re
placement bills.”
This group estimates that due
to modern design and increased
labor costs, a front end replace
ment which cost $100 in 1940
costs $290 today; a rear fender
replacement which was priced at
$10 in 1940 now brings $90.
Groggy from soaring losses, the
insurance companies are taking
other measures besides hiking
rates. Some have sharply cur
tailed their solicitation of new
business; others are foath to in
sure cars driven by persons un
der 25 years of age (more than
27 per cent of the deaths and
injuries are caused by cars driv
en by that age group) others
flatly refuse to insure a car own
ed and driven by a person under
21; older cars undergo close
scrutiny before being insured.
States putting higher bodily in
jury and, property damage rates
into effect today are Alabama,
Connecticut, Delaware, Florida,
Main, Maryland, New Mexico,
Nevada, Ohio, South Carolina,
South Dakota and Vermont
Commercial vehicle rates were
also hiked in all of these states
except Alabama and South Caro
lina.
I quote that from the Wall
Street Journal.
Church membership in the
United States reaches 56 percent,
says a headline in “The State” of
Columbia, recently, this headline
introducing an Associated Press
story from New York. By “church
membership” the story includes
Catholics, Jewish, and Protestant
religious bodies. I quote the dis
patch :
“Church” membership in the
United States rose to 85,705,280 in
1950, a record-making 55.9 per
cent of the population.

The total membership was up
2,950,987 over the previous year.
The figures were reported last
night in an annual survey com
piled by the Christian Herald
magazine.
Protestant membership rose 1,-
409,059 to a total of 50,083,868, an
increase of 2.89 per cent over the
previous year.
Roman Catholics increased 859,-
784 to a total of 28,470,092, up
3.1 per .cent.
Jewish congregations, on which
there were no new statistics, re
main listed 5,000,000.
The magazine, which makes
the only comprehensive, regular
survey of church membership in
the United States, said ‘the ma
jor faiths continue in about the
same proportion to each other’.
“Persons not belonging to any
church now make up 44.1 per
cent of the population. Fifty
years ago, the percentage of non
members was 65.3.
“The 1949 overall gain in mem
bership was 2,426,723 and the
1948 gain was 2,190,264—both less
than the 2,950,987 of 1960^
Commenting on the 1950 gains,
however, the report said: “There
was no spectacular turning to re
ligion, no spiritual upheaval. Re
ligion fought for every foot of
gain; there were no easy, sweep
ing advances. But there was a
continuation of even growth.”
Southern Baptist, which added
818,624 members in 1950, had the
biggest gain of any single Protest
ant denomination. The report
said Southern Baptist, with 7,079,-
889 members, now is the “fastest
growing denomination in the
United States” and within ten
years “may well be our largest.”
The Methodist church still Is
the largest Protestant denomina
tion. Its membership rose 143,078
to a total of 8,935,647. Its mem
bership gain was the second
highest.”
Devout churchmen will pon
der the 44 per cent out of the
church more than the 55 per cent
within the fold. It is obvious that
if we who are the 55 per cent
were full of the spirit and aflame
with the zeal of the believers at
Pentecost We should soon have
many of the 44 percent enlisted
and active. Perhaps many millions
of us who are on the books are
not enlisted; if enlisted. In a
military sense, we are so far in
the rear of the marching hosts of
the church militant that the army
of the Lord doesn’t know us ex
cept on pay-day; that is, the day
when we collect, not when we
pay.
Religion is our greatest inter
est, though often it faMs to be
our chief concern. The only en
during interest is religion. We,
all, shall die. No argument de
nies that. But that religion which
doesn’t mean anything until old
age and infirmity sober us from
the intoxication of living fails, as
it might have sweetened and en
nobled the days of striving amid
“the madding crowd’s ignoble
strife.”
' I do not know how soon the in
creasing cost of everything will
make necessary an increase in
the cost of city bus operation and
electric power in this State. I
have no figures on which to base
an opinion, but I’ve read that bus
rates are higher in many heavily
congested cities than here. As is
known, the big Bus Compan* s
which operate throughout our
state have increased their rates
three times in six years, fche most
recent increase being put on with
in recent weeks. As to what we
call electric • current, it costs
hundreds of thousands of dollars
more when water is so low and
taxes are so high. A company
with millions invested in hydro
electric plants which must now
use coal or oil because water is
very low, obviously is operating
at heavy additional expense. Be
cause Santee-Cooper is a great
hydro-electric development, draw
ing its power from the water cov
ering 176,000 acres, I asked
Chairman James H. Hammond if
the low water has affected San
tee-Cooper. When water is high
Santee-Cooper can sell great
loads of secondary power, but
when water is very low, as it has
C. P. Hewitt, formerly Chief In
spector of the City of London
Police, recently talked in the
BBC’s General Overseas Service
about the fiftieth anniversary of
Scotland Y a r d's Fingerprint
Bureau. It was demonstrated
long ago that the chances of two
persons having identical finger
prints was about one in sixty-
four thousand million, for not
even the fingerprints of identical
twins are alike. The ridge for
mation is complete at a very
early stage of pre-natal develop
ment and remains unchanged
throughout the longest life.
Fingerprints can be destroyed if
both outer and inner skins of the
fingers are removed but . they
grow again exactly as before.
Although fingerprinting is only
fifty years old officially it has
been used since very ancient
times. Inspector Howitt men
tioned the record of the first
century Roman murder .trial in
'which an imprint from the palm
of a bloodstained hand was suc
cessfully used to identify the mur
derer, for palm and foot-prints
are as individual as fingerprints.
The Chinese used fingerprints as
signatures to valuable documonts
in the seventh century and there
are thumb prints in Chinese clay
seals that are a thousand years
older.
There is no satisfactory proof
that fingerprints were used to
identify criminals until the time
of Sir William Horschel, and Dr.
Honry Faulds. These two men,
unkown to each other, worked
from personal theories and dis
coveries towards the realisation
of the criminological value of
fingerprints. Herschel used them
in India to identify native con
tractors and pensionors who tried
to swindle him. Yet this use of
fingerprints to identify pensioners
was not fool-proof. There’s a
story about one illiterate labour
er in government service who
had been penioned of, and who
signed for his weekly pension
payment with a thumb-print. This
went on for so long that a vigil
ant official investigated and
found that the pensioner had been
dead for forty years and “the
most valuable heirloom possessed
by his grateful family was grand
father's mummified but still quite
serviceable thumb.” The Joint
discoveries of Herschel and
Faulds made little stir at Scot
land Yard at first, largely be
cause of the difficulty of classi
fying prints for filing purposes
but when the researches of
Francis Galton led to the setting
up of a satisfactory system of
classification the process was
adopted at the Yard. Today there
are over a million sets of finger
prints in the main collection,
and may thousands of new ones
are received each year, while
between the wars Chief Inspector
Battley devised a remarkable sys
tem of classification by which
one fingermark was sufficient for
an identification of greater cer
tainty than ever before.
It is perfectly easy both to take
and to see fingerprints taken by
rolling fingers and thumbs on
an inked plate but it is vastly
different to develop them and
find them at the scene of the
crime. This includes treating
the surface with powders so that
“latent” prints become visible.
Light grey powder brings up
sweat prints on dark surfaces,
glass, and silver, while black
graphite powder is used for white
surfaces, china, paper and so on.
Even fingerprints on cloth can
be photographed if the cloth is
stretched over the mouth of an
“insufflator” and powder blown
through it, for some powder
adheres to the cloth in the for
mation of a finger impression.
Most criminals regard Scotland
Yard’s Fingerprint Department
with profound distaste but, al
though fingerprints can be used
to convict a criminal without
any doubt, they can equally well
be used to remove blame from
someone wrongfully suspected.
