RE. 4843 FARM BUREAU CO-OPERATIVE INSURANCE MUTUAL Through co-operative, group action, the Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance Company was organized in 1926 at Columbus, Ohio. Farmers believed that they could provide themselves with adequate auto- mobile insurance at lower rates than then prevailed. The Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance Company was organized as a mutual, co- operative insurance service to provide farmers complete, full coverage protection for approximately 409 less than most rates quoted at that time. The plan of co-operative, mutual ownership has proved to more than 294,000 policyholders that they can serve their own needs at the lowest RAVY-Y:I82 2 |Girls Admit Starting - |City Newsin Brief Reformatory Fire; May Face Court Bondy Considers Taking Criminal Action Against Trio Robert Bondy, director of the Board of Public Welfare, said today he would confer with Juvenile Court authorities on the advisabllity of taking action in criminal courts against the three girls who have | P admitted setting fire to the building in which they were incarcerated at the National Training School for Girls. Blame for the two-alarm blase Tuesday night has been fixed on the three teen-age colored girls, he said, but no decision has been reached on disciplinary measures, Juvenile Court Opinion Seught. Mr. Bondy said he would ask the | Juvenile Court authorities for their |opinion of the advisability of re- leasing the trio from jurisdiction of | that court. If this is done, he said, they might | be brought into a criminal court te | face charges of arson. The three admitted under ques- tioning yesterday by Mr. Bondy and Capt. Clarence Talley of the Tth precinct that they had used papers and rags to set the fire in two places near the ceiling above their cells in the top floor of the two-story Shaw Building. Had Attempted to Eseape. They were locked in cells in that building, along with four others, after being returned to the institu- tion from attempted escapes. Ap- parently, it was said, they hoped to make another escape attempt during the fire. The blaze, however, did not be- come serious enough to cause the girls to be taken out of the build- ing. The seven—along with about 15 other inmates of the same | structure—were herded together on ! the first floor while firemen put out the fire in the roof and attic. Damage amounted to about $900. Mr. Bondy said. He pointed out that the fire would have been much more serious had not it been discov- ered by an engineer at the school. The training school is a reform- atory to which incorrigible girls are sent when other corrective measures have failed. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1840, TODAY.
