ACTION DEFERRED
ON AUTO INSURANCE
Bill Referred to Interested
' i
Parties in Effort to
Reach Accord.
——
The subcommittee on insurance and
banking of the House District commit- i
tee after hearing various represent*-;
fives of automotive trade associations j
and federated citizens of the District |
in opposition to the Treadway compul- •
son- auto liabilitv insurance bill vester- |
dav referred it to a conference of these
interested parties to see if they can
reach an agreement on a temporary
measure.
It was emphasized throughout the
hearing that the District, being a small
area surrounded by Maryland and Vir
ginia. should not have such experi
mental legislation forced upon it until
after the adjacent States had at least
indicated what they proposed to do
along this line. It was on this account
that the attempt to reach an agreement
en some temporary measure for the
District was suggested by Representative
Underhill, who presided.
Burden on Autoists.
A point in the opposition to the meas
ure was that compulsory aut*-,mobile in- .
aura nee would call tor an expenditure
of mor* than 52.500.000 by autoists in
the District with an estimated payment
3v the casualty companies of from S6OA.-
COO to $lOO,OOO on personal liability;
claims. This is an unfair financial bur
cen. it was pointed out. in comparison 1
to the relatively small amount of pro
tection afforded.
Those who apnea red were Edward M. ,
Wallace, president of the Washington j
Automotive Trade Association: Valter!

Automobile Dealers and the Nation- 1

Hegc. appearing as an individual, hut !
who will make a report to the Citizens’
Advisory Couneil. He is also a member
of the Traffic Advisory Council and pre-
a ropv ol the resolution adopted
by the Federation of Citizens - Associa
tions. Others were George vV OfTutt
of the American Automobile Association
and Arthur V. Tliadcn of the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States.
Mr Wallace argued that the pro
posed legislation is an experiment, that
the law has been in operation in Massa
! rhusetts only one year and that other
: States that have considered it have
not adopted it.
Chairman Underhill suggested that
! Massachusetts has an interstate pro
| vision to cover those who regularly
; travel over the State line.
Handicapped in Past.
i It was emphasized that the District i
I has been handicapped in the past by
| not having laws similar to those in
i operation in Maryland and Virginia.
Mr. Ouy replied to a question by Mr.
Underhill, saying that if such a law |
were enacted here it would only ae- -
centuate the trouble that now exists, j
due to the fact that some Virginia resi- j
dents register their cars in the Dis- i
tried If this law were in force here, lie j
said, many District owners of cars
would register them in Maryland and .
Virginia to save the $2O or $3O that !
the insurance certificate would cost. i
I In replv to a question by Mr. Under- j
hill. Mr Guy said that sooner or later
some such legislation should be passed
but the conditions are not yet right (
when the surrounding area is not also
similarly covered. He believed the Dis
trict should follow’ Maryland and Vir
. ginia in such matters.
Mr. Offut-t emphasized that the old
| principle of an ounce of pro toft ion be
; ing worth more than a pound of cure
was the best principle on which to
I work. Mr. OfTutt is chairman of the
Traffic Advisory Council, and told the
! subcommittee that the American Auto
mobile Association, which he repre
sents. has a membership of 15,000 in
, 'ho District. He thought that in all
i such legislation extreme care should be
i taken, as Washington would be singled

I boon placed before 28 State lieglMA-
I tures, and of all these only one ha?
adopted it.
Chamber of Commerce Inquiry.
Arthur Von Thaden submitted a let
ter and the result of an Investigation
on District traffic and auto liability
! from the Chamber of Commerce of the
I United States. , ... .
Representative Jenkins of Ohio was
delegated by the subcommittee to rep
resent it and the interests of drivers of
cheap cal’s in the conferences to be held
between Representative Treadway, au
thor of the bill, and the representatives
of the automobile trade associations.
Mr. Treadway said he does not want
to inflict any hardship on the people
