Decision Maker
Fault System Makes Nation's
Automobile Insurance A Mess
ay JACK ANDERSON
WASHINGTON - The Transpor-
tation Department recently spent
two years and $2 million to learn
what any motorist could have told
them for two cents — that the
automobile insurance system in
this country is an unmitigated
mess.
Car owners have be< n complain-
ing for years that auto insurance
costs too much and. often, i- hard
to get at any pike. Thousands
have found, to their dismay, the
insurance that costs them so d al ly
doesn’t cover their accident bills.
Hundreds have lost their auto-
biles, their health, their income —
a 1 I without comp nsation. Oth r
hundreds have come out of acci-
dents unscathed, yet have collect-
ed generous payments for their
“pain and suffering."
Sen. Phil Hart, D - Mich., who
has been investigating the in -
surance industry for five years,
has been inundated with l*ttci-
from irate motorist, and accident
victims who f el th. y have been
shortchanged by the system.
A Maryland man, for example,
told how his aged wife was struck
while crossing th*- street to her
home. She was judg d by th • dri-
ver’s in uran„e company to have
been “5 |>er cent negligent" and
was denied any paym nt.
A 76 - year - old Brooklyn wo-
man lost her husband in a car ac-
cident sewn years ago and has
yet to collect a penny of the bene-
fits due her.
An insurance agent from Colum-
bus, Ohio, wrote that h; had "be n
in this auto insurance hu-in- s for
3 years, and any insurance man
who says we are doing a good
Job is either ignorant, incompetent,
or a liar and most likely the lat-
ter."
PROFIT FROM GRIEF
Why does such an expensive, in-
humane and unfair sy-le«n con-
tinue to operate year after year
without change? The blunt ans-
wer: Too many people are making
too much money on the grief of
others.
The "injury industry" — th" in-
surance companies, agents, adjus-
tors and lawyers — have been
raking in billions of dollars with
the auto insurance -ystem Just
the way it is.
The system’s worst fault, most
experts agree, is the "fault” prin-
ciple upon which automobile lia-
bility insurance is based. Essen-
tially, this means that in order for
anyone to collect on an accident,
someone must be shown to be
"at fault.” U it’s the other driver,
you collect. If you are at fault —
or, in most state, even partially
at fault — you collect absolutely
nothing. Unless you have collision
and medical insurance, you repair
your car and pay your medical
bills out of your own pocket.
All that your liability insurance
covers is the other fellow’s dam-
ages in the- event you are held re-
sponsible for an accident. While
this may appear to be ba-ed on
good old American justice (letting
the "guilty" party pay), a closer
look shows the "fault" system to
b? good only for the underwriters
and lawyers. Here are some specif-
ics :
The necessity to prove "fault”
requires lawsuits, which have dog-
ged our already crowded courts
to the breaking point. Federal
judges s|>end 11 |xt cml and state
judges 20 |x-r cent of their time
helping to decide who struck
whom. i
The backlog of cases continues
to grow while unpaid medical bills
pile up. A federal study shows
that th ■ average victim with more
than $2,500 losses must wait IB
months before he is compensated.
In I) troit, the average victim waits
four v a;s just for hi, case to come
to trial.
Insurance I- hard for many peo-
ple to obtain, cancellations are
rampant, and premium costs are
skyrocketing. To quote one dis-
traught car owner from Evans-
ville, Ind.: "To me, insurance is
for -m *rgencies. Now it is almost
an emergency when the insurance
bill comes."
CUSTOMERS' MORALS
IToving "fault" requires jury
trials. Insurance companies, there-
fore, prefer to sell liability in-
surance to those persons who will
impri -- a jury favorably. This has
evolv d i highly arbitrary custo-
mer selection system that involves
much more than a spotless traf-
fic r -c-ord Drivers are paying high-
er premiums and having their poli-
t i e s cancelled because of their
jobs, marital statu-, sex, living
habits, and “morals”. As a Denver
man put it after his policy was
summarily drnpiu-d: "I guess the
company just didn’t like the color
of my eyes.”
Seriously injured accident vic-
tims rective woefully inadequate
compensation while those with triv-
ial injuries are sometimes over-
paid. A DOT study of half a mil-
lion accidents showed that over
half of the victims received not a
single cent of compensation, main-
ly because they were held to be
"at fault.” But those judged by
law to be innoct nt didn’t fare much
better; only half recovered 50 per
cent of their medical and wage
lo-ses. On the other hand, the
slightly injured who lost an aver-
age of $500 got back $2,250.
Precious little of the enormous
premiums motorists pay is ever
returned to t h e m. DOT figures
show that only 42 per cent of all
liability premiums are paid baek
in benefits. Much of the liability
premium dollar goes to the gm-
tern’s "middlemen." Insurance a-
gents alone received some $13 bil-
lion in sales commissions in 1970
There’s a way out of the insur-
ance morass, ft’s called ’no-fault"
auto insurance. Under this -ystem,
each motorist would look to his
own insurance company to cov-
er his losses, which would be paid
no matter who was at fault. This
idea has been analyzed and stud-
ied for more than 50 years. It has
been tried and found to work.
Puerto Rico, for example, has
had a no-fault system for nearly
two years and it is succeeditjg
beyond the wildest hopes. A par-
tial no-fault plan went into effect
last January in Massachusetts and,
despite some glaring shortcom •
ings, it is working well.
Most objective experts believe
a national no ■ fault auto in-
surance system would be simple,
fair, and efficient They feel it
would result, if fully adopted, in
lower premiums, prompter and
more complete service and even
safer cars.
Progress toward a complete no-
fault -ystem, however, has been
blocked by an intensive lobbying
campaign. Across the country, trial
lawyers, Insurance agents, adjus-
ters, and most insurance compan-
ies — all of whom stand to lose
billion- of dollars if no-fault goes
through — have risen up to ob-
struct it in whatever way they
can.

Red China Seeking Friends
Among Soviet Satellites
•y JACK ANDERSON
WASHINGTON — Red China is
now quietly spn admg its diplomat-
ic offensive to Ea-tern Europe. So
pleased are the Chinese with the
the l.S. that they have steppe.I
up the courtship of Romania, Yu-
goslavia and even pro - Russian
Czechoslovakia.
(Inna has given Romania a $244
million loan to go with more than
$26 million worth of flood relief
supplied to Romania la-t year.
And the visit of Yugoslavian For-
eign Minister Mirko Tepavac in
Peking this June had all the trap-
pings of a Chinese love feast.
TTie biggest surprise is the woo-
ing of Czechoslovakia. Only a year
ago, Peking wa- denouncing the
Czechs for sealing off the Cam-
bodian embassy in Prague. And
this May the Czechs called Peking
a bunch of disrupters and pseudo-
revolutionanes.
But now, multi • million dollar
trade talks are proceeding se-
cretly. More importantly, the dip-
lomats of the two countriw are
honestly admitting to each other
that there are big differences, but
saying tlu-se should not int -rfc-r?
with trade and other matters.
Incidentally, our intelligence
sources have noticed some drastic
change, in R e d China’s radio
broadcasts. The Chinese have in-
creased thi ir foreign broadcasts
dramatically in the past two years
and now beam to six continents
in 33 languages, including Eng-
lish
At the moment, they are trying to
convince the Russian people that
th Soviet leaders are all countcr-
rivolutionaries. Some of the Chi-
nes? broadcasts to Russia go out
on as many as 40 different wave-
length-.
Significantly, the Chinese are
pouring on the propaganda heavily
in l ighur and Kazaka. two obscure
languages spoken along the Rus-
sian - Chinese border, where skir-
mishes between Russia and China
still break out from time to time.
NO KY REVOLT
Then- have been ominous rum-
or in Saigon of a coup to over-
throw President Thieu. Press re-
ports have linked his bitter rival,
Vice President Ky, to the alleged
pints.
Bu’ intelligence reports assert
that Ky has been behaving like a
model vice president. He held a
eland' stin? me ting at his villa
with thp representatives of ten op-
po-itmn groups. But the -ecret
up jib to Washington said be dis-
couraged anti - government dem-
onstrations and urged a moderate
response to Thieu’s one-man presi-
dential election next month Still
thp talk persi-ts of an impending
coup.
Vietnamese experts expect that
anti - Thieu demonstrations will
break out at Hue and Danang, two
anti - government hotb-ds ’but
Thieu has taken the precaution of
putting his most trusted associate.
Col. Nguyen Khac Binb, in charge
of the national police. Therefore,
th.- election is expect.-d to be rea-
sonably quiet and Thieu will
emerge as South Vietnam's strong
man.

TWISTING THE LAW
5. W'c will show how Hoover
Iwistcd the law to k(-ep his in-
s parable companion, Clyde Tol-on,
on the payroll as the FBI’s No. 2
man. The two old friends have
b. i-n lunching, dining and vacation-
ing together for years. When Tol-
son reached ihe mandatory 79-
y. ar-old retirement age in May,
19711, his health was too |>oor to
get a waiver. So Hoover arranged
for him to “retire,” then conn-
back to tht- FBI as a “reemploy-
ahle annuiant" under a provision
that allows overage employees to
complete their unfinished work.
9. In his late-t blast at us, av
published in the Washington Post,
Hoover calls us irresponsible for
reporting h? assigned only four
agents to the Justice Department’s
vital, 17 - city drive against the
Mafia. Despite the FBI’s refusal to
answer our inquiries, we noted thal
the FBI helps out the strike forces
without direct assignments and con-
ducts its own separate Mafia in-
vestigations. We will produce a
19 - page Justice Department docu-
ment, which completely confirms
oui story.
7. Of all the charges we have
made against Hoover, he chose
also to deny our story that agent
Kenneth Lovin was disciplined for
not wearing his Jacket at a shoot-
out at N, w York's Kennedy Inter-
national Airjiort. Himver stated in-
dignantly that he commended Lov-
in and gave him a cas award for
killing Bichard Ob -rgf.-ll, an armed
hijacker. Thus Hoover denied a
story that Izovm, when we gave
him the opportunity, refused to de-
ny. We not only will stand by our
story, but we will present evl-
den that Hoover's Boy Scout
rules and us*- of FBI agents to
investigate the most minor infrac-
tions of FBI employees has ham-
P r d law enforcement.
From the first, we have empha-
izi-d that Hoover has built up Ihe
FBI until It has a reputation un-
matched by any law enforcement
agency in the world. But we have
.suggested, sadly at first, more
Irmly later, that Ih.- time has
passed when the nation should have
paid Hoover his final measure of
praise and replaced him.
