Automobile Liability Insurance May Show General Increase rates . and it remain* for the state government to approve them. < „ . , Comparison of the coats of auto liability insurance' to the Illinois ^motorist with costs in the three other most populous A general increase in the price of automobile liability insurance by most of the insurance companies may soon be in the offing for Illinois motorists, according to statewide insurance company managers. Rates have already been hiked by some companies, but Illinois rates have been low compared with those in the other populous states of the land! This will reflect an increase in costs to companies belonging , to or subscribing to National Bureau of Casualty Underwriters. The increase would apply only to bodily injury and property damage insurance. These coverages protect the motorist against the liability with which he may be charged for injuring other persons or their property. The insurance companies in Illinois, or elsewhere, base their charges on their experience. It is the motorists who actually make their own rates, basest on the frequency and severity of accidents. In Illinois, as in every other part of the-,< nation, the size of the claims against the insurance companies has been mounting. Nationwide the cost of settling bodily ijijury claims has risen 54.2 percent in ten years while property damage costs are up 124.7 percent. Hospital charges are up over 175 per cent while jury verdicts have riser; as high as 80 percent. The Illinois increases parallel those of the nation at large. The insurance companies have presented statistics to the Illinois Insurance department to support their requests for increases in states show that Illinoisians are | generally paying less than citi- ' zens of the other states. The following shows the price which the private passenger motorist in the principal cities of the four largest states must pay for this coverage. l"hese particular figures apply only to the private motorists in the most f a v o r a b l e c l a s s i f i c a t i o n , b u t costs for car owners in other categories bear similar relationships.. The figures given for bodily injury represent the cost of $5,000 liability protection for injury of one person and $10,000 for liability for injury of more than one person. Figures given in the property damage category represent a limit of liability of |5,000: Chicago, bodily injury, $86, property damage, $22; New York City (Manhattan Only) bodily injury, $92, property dapiage, $34; Philadelphia bodily injury, $39, property damage, $27; Los Angeles, bodily injury, $32, property damage, $24. Similarly, the Illinois motorist living outside the city limits of Chicago fares better than New York motorists living outside Manhattan, Pennsylvanians outside Philadelphia, and Californians outride Los Angeles. <The following/ figures are for the 1 same amounts of liability coverage. They represent rates for city and town*, dwellers, a* the rates for farmers in each state are reduced 15 percent across the board. These figures are the average premium paid by car j owners in each ok, the four states i outside the limits of the four' large cities:. Illinois, bodily in-! jury, $24, property damage, $15; I New York, bodily injury, $45 i p r o p e r t y d a m a g e , $ 2 0 ; P e n n s y l -j vania. $19, property damage $16; | California, bodily injury, Ml. j property damage, $20. , j TEEN-AGERS TO LEARN METHOD OFF FILING TAX RETURNS E. J. Sauber, director of Internal Revenue, Chicago, has announced that educational materials designed to help junior and senior high school students learn hew to file their own federal income tax returns will soon be distributed by the Internal Revenue ,§.ervi£Ci „ every secon* dary school . ill ' the United States. : ' •; v Thousands 61' teen-age students in the state of Illinois hold after-school and summertime jobs, the earnings- from which are frequently subject to the withholding tax on wages, Mr. Sauber said. Although many of these students earn less than $600 a year and jncur no tax liability, it is to their advantage to file a-return in order to obtain a refund of the taxes withheld. The instruction materials are designed to help th^se students learn»the correct method of filing tax returns to obtain the xefunds. In some cases the students receive enough income to incur tax liability, and the instruction materials will helpj these students learn how to cor-! rectly discharge their tax obli- j gations under the law, | Many secondary schools' and teachers in this state have already introduced practical income tax instruction to help their teen-age students, lifr. Sauber said. However, texts readily available to the schools! and teachers are not always upto- date Or entirely adequate to meet the practical needs of the working students. The materials to be distributed by the revenue service will provide the schools and teachers with official, up-todate teaching aids on how to file federal individual income tax returns." . v ' ir • PLAN '53 FABt The, 1953 Illinois State Fair, celebrating the 101st anniversary of the great agricultural exposition, will be held \ in Springfield Aug. 14-23, acfcotxling to Director of Agriculture Roy- E.
