Insurance Men Believe Merit-Rating Plan Fair DETROIT (UPI) - Most insur ance officials feel the merit rat ing plan of automobile insurance is the fairest way to provide pro tection lor motorists but many of them are skeptical over whether it will be practical, a United Press International survey shows the merit plan, which will be tested on a large scale for the first time in California beginning May 1, provides lower insurance rates for motorists with good driv- :ng records ana nigner rates lor drivers with poor records. Under tne California plan, the drivers would be divided into three groups those who have had no accidents or traffic violations in the last three years, those who have had only one violation or ac cident, and those who have had two or more. The first group would get lower insurance rates. The second group's rates will remain about the same. The 'iiird group's rates will go up. "We're glad to see other seg ments of the insurance industry adopt the plan we pioneered three years ago in Ohio and now have out in the pioneer stage," said Charles Eberhard, vice president and treasurer of the National Casualty Co., Detroit, one of the first companies to experiment with merit rating. "We now provide this plan in Michigan too and will be introduc- Cutter Waits For Red Ship JUNEAU, Alaska (UPI) The 230-foot Coast Guard cutter Storis today was anchored at Akun Bay in the Aleutians awaiting a ren dezvous with a Russian tug to give, aid to an injured and un conscious Russian seaman.

Labor Chief Gives Views SEATTLE (AP)-Harry Bridges said Tuesday his West Coast long shoremen would not refuse to han dle Japanese salmon shipments under any circumstances. Sen. Magnuson (D-Wash) had suggested at a Senate subcommit tee hearing here last week that dock workers might boycott Jap anese imports in protest over Alaska fisheries problems. Bridges, here for the convention of the International Longshoremen and Warehousemen's Union which he heads, said in an interview: "I don't think this would be con structive. We know something ought to be done in the Bristol Bay situation, particularly regard ing conservation as well as pos sibly subsidies. But we don t think the type of action such as the boycott proposed or mentioned would do any good at all," The iubcommiltee hearing over which Magnuson presided was on a bill which would ban Japanese canned salmon imports unless the Japanese curtail their fishing in the North Pacific. Alaskans blame Japanese catch es of Alaska-spawned salmon for declining runs which forced clo sure of Bristol Bay to commercial fishing this season. smoothest, safest ride in Oregon (medtrn amcrtttfrom .V.

"Missouri would welcome such a plan that rewards safe drivers," he said. "It's something we have wanted for a long time." Other insurance commissioners preferred . to wait to see the results of the California experi ment, although they said they "personally think it is a good idea." Michigan insurance officials said the plan offers "great hope" but there also were "a great many things that could go wrong." Some other insurance commis sioners pointed out some of the difficulties they foresaw. Idaho Commissioner Leo O'Con nel pointed out the plan would be "workable only in slates where authorities maintain adequate traf fic accident records." Miss Fannie Hardy, executive assistant to Arkansas Insurance Commissioner Harvey G. Combs, said she doesn't consider the plan feasible. "Insurance companies in recent years have paid out more in claims than they have taken in," she said. "This plan will not set tle that problem." "How in the world could state departments keep up with the records," Arizona Insurance Di rector George V. Bushnell as&ed. "It would require greatly in creased staffs." Engle Calls For Hearings WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen. Clair Engle (D-Calif.) Monday called for early concessional hearings on proposed construction of the Hidden afid Buchanan dams and reservoirs in California. "The time for study hs and the time for action is no," Engle said. In a letter to Sen. Dennis Cha vez (D-N.M.), chairman of the Senate Public Works Committee, Engle requested that representa tives of the Corps of Engineers atid the Reclamation Bureau be invited to testify on the feasibility of the long-pending projects. The units have been delayed be cause of a dispute between the corps and the bureau over which agency should build thm. Enele said a recent water development agreement signed by the two agen cies should clear this up. fcngle told Chavez the reser voirs are needed "more than ever now in order to provide flood control on the Chowchilla and Fresno rivers as well as sup plemental irrigation storage for Madera County.
