Car Insurance Rates To Drop "Automobile insurance rate have reached the peak and will start a decline." This optimistic prophecy was was made by Mayor Paul O. Lan dry, whose business interests are the Landry Insurance Co. . According to Landry, two com panies have already reduced their rates on automobile insurance 12 per cent within the state, and this he says, indicates a trend soon to be followed by all the insurance companies. "People make the rates, though" Landry reminded, "and insurance rates will only improve depending on the careful driving of the people." Statistics in Klamath Falls show that drivers deserve these cut rates. According to Police Judge Frank Blackmer, there were only 863 traf fic accidents in the city in 1953 as compared with 1123 in 1952. In De cember, 1953 there were 106 acci dents, less than half of the 1952 figure of 229 for the same month. The year 1953 brought 16 Injur ies, three more than in 1952, and two fatalities Roy Rakestraw, an executive with First National Bank of Portland, and Lee Karr, secre tary of the board of Bar Gov ernors of the Oregon State . Bar Assn. The one fatality " in "1952 was caused by jaywalking. This minor crime brought no fatalities in 1953, but 122 citations were issued, none of which were recorded in court records. - RESHUFFLE TOKYO m Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshlda Friday reshuffled his cabinet, replacing three min isters. - t ,- Ski Report Favorable By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The following ski area report was issued Friday by the Portland Weather Bureau and resort offices: Timberline 90 inches snow, 2 new, powder on packed, good ski ing; roads good, carry chains; tow and chair lift operate.
