YOU PAY INSURANCE FRAUDS Honest casualty insurance policyhold- ers are annually defrauded of millions of dollars through fake claims. This isn’t suspicion, but fact. one out of every four personal damage claims is likely to be fraudeulent. Hard times have made the problem most acute. Dishonest doctors and lawyers seize on unemployed persons in need of money, and enter claims for accidents that have never occurred. The doctor testifies to imagin- ary injuries, the lawyer sues—and in thou- sands of cases the insurance company is powerless and must pay, even when it is confident of fraud. Last year the cas- ualty companies cf the country paid out $96,000,060 to injured policyholders, an increase of more than $7,000,000 in 12 Company officials conservative- ly estimate that $14,000,000 of this—15 per cent—was crookedly’ obtained. Here is a rea! public problem. The cas- ualty insurance companies are making an intense fight against the “accident racket- eer.”” and they have helped send a num- bei of offenders to prison. never get far without public interest and support, and a general realization of a sit- uation that peualizes every policyholder, eongests the courts, is a continual source of trouble to the authorities, and has become #u appreciabie item in the cost of essential insurance gd ea Today AN CLD-TIMER’S DIARY A recent magazine article presents an interesting sidelight on the views and hab- its of an old-time Delaware legislator, Hon, E. Suton, who is credited with being the father of that state’s excellent school sys- tem. Sutton was a: member of the state ‘as- sembly more than a century ago, in 1823 to be exact, and like many of his day and since, he kept a diary in which his acts and impressions were recorded. Some excerpts follow: “Jan. 17,1823: Attended state gen- eral assembly. Favor schcol bill. Paid three levies for oats for horse. Got some | fine gin today. Took some home in my saddlebags, I believe in education.” A few days later he wrote: “Roads muddy as _ hell. home one-half gal, fine rye.” On Jan. 25, 1823, he made this entry: “Roads worse than yesterday. Gener- al assembly killing time. _ Sammy Varden gave me a Qt. of prime brandy today. Plan- ning to pass school bill tomorrow.” The school bill was passed, and the rough and ready legislator who mixes liq- uor and learning was correspondingly hap- py. Brought PEKSONALITY PLUS Pathfinder tells a sad story which nevertheless has a decidedly humorous side, It concerns a catalogue recently. is- sued by a fashionable “finishing school” for girls. The catalogue was a highly attractive specimen of the printer’s art, intended to appeal to the eye as’ well‘as to the pocket- book of wealthy parents to whom it was sent, ‘All the advaniages of the school were set forth most convincingly, the elaborate curriculum was stressed, and several “‘ex- tras” were suggested to make the “‘finish’”’ of its girl students entirely complete: One of these extras, for which only $200 ad-| Aitional was required, was a course in “Voice and Personality.” i After tie catalogues had all been mailed out, it was discovered that the print- | e: had umitted one little letter in the line | of type describing this course, which he | had made te read “Vice and Personality.” | What the school people and the print- er said when the error was discovered is iF But they will i THE KEY WEST CITIZER @eoc0cccc00000000000000000 Daily Cross-word Puzzle ~cROSS Solution of Sati Guided .
