Oregon motorists In sured by State Farm Mutual automobile insurance company, will save over $200,000 yearly, compared with their previous rates, according to Ellwynne Peck, local agent for the company. Biggest savings will go to plea sure cars with no male operator under age 25 and to older models cars, Peck stated. Rates for lia bility coverage will now be fig ured under a new four-group plan, based on age of male driver and pleasure or business use of car. A new "step down plan" for comprehensive and collision in surance drops rates twice for these insurance coverages, once when the car is two model years old and again when it is four model years old. Thus, the "step down plan" cuts rates immedi ately for 1952 and 1953 models, and even more substantially for I9ti and older cars. Also, col lision rates are reduced for many 1954 and 1955 models. For commercial vehicles, there are reducions in comprehensive, collision, and, with some excep tions, in liability rates. Currently, 58,000 Oregon motor ists are insured with State Farm Mutual, Peck stated. Nationwide, State Farm Mutual has led all other companies for thirteen years in number of cars insured. Under the new liability rates, there are substantial reductions throughout the state for pleasure cars with no male operator un der age 25. Rates are Increased for family cars with an occas ional (not principal) male drivers under 25, and for business use cars. Where the male owner or male principal operator is under 25, the increase is substantial, 'except for husbands age 21-24 Mr. and Mrs. m tctwards and family from Burns visited at the Liin Edwards home on Sunday.
