IBERTY MUTUAL has always paid back to its automobile policyholders 30 9 of their premiums. This is a saving of 23 cents on each dollar of the standard cost of motor- car insurance. At the same time Liberty Mutual has maintained the highest quality of service. How has this been done? The high cost of insurance is largely caused by reckless owners. Liberty Mutual does not knowingly insure this class. It admits only persons of good character who are not engaged in questionable occupations and who have a record for careful driving. Furthermore, Liberty Mutual cuts out over 109, of the insurance cost by selling to you direct. Its policies cannot be purchased through the usual insurance channels. If you are not receiving a 309 dividend on your automobile insurance, and if you believe you are eligible for membership, write or phone to the nearest office of the LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY.
