Insurance Commissioner Paul H.

from which Texas insurance
agents have computed fire in-
surance rates for nearly 30 years.
Completely revised after months

"Its built

—that’s why a GMCpickup will
last longer, cost less to maintain!
"1Y7HBN the big GMC over-the-high-
VV way truck and the small pickup,
shown above, are loaded to capacity—
there’s 30,000 pounds difference in their
weights.
Yet they are alike in a lot of important
ways that make GMC light trucks tops in
all-around service!
For GMC is the ONLY pickup truck
with all five of the important features
which most manufacturers reserve for
their bigger, “heavy duty” vehicles.
They arerTocco-Hardened crankshafts,
full-floating piston pins, airplane-type
main and rod bearings, rifle-drilled
connecting rods and full-pressure lubri-
cation all the way to the piston pins—
things that increase the fife of any truck.
But that’s not all. We’ll be glad to
demonstrate how other features like
“pillow action” springs and recircu-
lating ball-bearing steering give GMG’s
a real “passenger-car ride.” Gome in

SAVED }5%
ON FIRE INSURANCE
Many homes are in the "pre-
ferred circle" and have qual-
ified for a 15% dividend on
their fire insurance premiums.
The General Insurance Com-
pany of America will not ac-
cept bad risks; therefore losses
are below average and “pre-
ferred" property owners have
shared in the savings.
nsurance
Company’s “preferred risk” coverage
on fire insurance has saved thousands
of families 15% on insurance costs.
This General plan is for careful
people, who build solidly, plan for
the future and take care of what
they have. “Preferred Risk’* isn’t
limited to modern homes. It means
“eliminate the bad risks.”
Does YOUR property quatify for this
selective insurance? Ash us. We will tell
you promptly —anil without obligation.
