NEW LAW IS MILESTONE —IN ACCIDENT INSURANCE Insurance Commissioners Win in Demands For Policies of Uniform Phrasing That Anyone Can Understand. UNDERWRITERS RELUCTANT Majority Overruled Few Who Urged Voluntary Standardizing Before Compulsion Began. CHlCAGO—lnsurance commissioners of the various states have won a not able victory for the Bill Smiths and John Joneses who take out accident in surance by bringing; the accident insur ance companies to tl\e adoption of plain, uniform policies that contain no trick or evasive phrases. 'The uniform policies, which the old companies so bitterly op posed, have not yet been adopted but the white fla# is flying, the committee of insurance company presidents, in cluding William Bro Smith, H. G. Alexander and George F. Seward hav ing prepared the bill for the state ol Ohio requiring uniformity of wording that was recently "requested" by the association of insurance commissioners. While specifically for the state ot Ohio, the bill was prepared for the ap proval of the commissioners as a model for legislation in all the various states. The draft of this bill, it is announced, has been prepared and submitted to the other eantern accident underwriters. Its approval by the national convention of insurance commissioners is yet to be se cured but the determined stand taken by the convention, it is believed, has brought about the drafting )f a bill that nearly will fill its requirements. The first three sections of the draft for Ohio contain the revolutionary require ments against which a majority of the companies have put up a losing ti*hl a contest forecasted by a minority con tingent of underwriters as long ago as at the twenty-first annual convention ot the International Association of Acci dent Underwriters at Atlantic City last July, when a bitter feud was erea ted by efforts made to forestall compulsion by voluntary standardizing of policies. At that time Robert B. Armstrong, form er assistant secretary of the treasury and now' president of the Consolidated Casualty company of Chicago was se verely arraigned for “irregularity" be cause of hie advocacy of voluntary ac tion by the insurance companies. rp he debate became sensational and many personal estrangements date from that occasion. AERO EHBITIi OPESATFUKFORT Europe’s Best In Things Aeronautic Will Be On Show for Three Months. BERLIN. —The International Aero nautic Exhibition which opens at Frankfort today for three months will be the most remarkable enterprise of the kind ever organized in any coun try. At first eh mi different sections of the exhibition were planned, but these not proving exhaustive of every thing connected with aeropl&ning, sev eral new sections —large collections of objects having reference to the his tory of the conquest of the air, the literature o n the subject, and an or nithological group showing the flight of the original teachers, the birds and insects, with photographs and their illustrations, have been added. Every kind of machine for progress through the air is of course repre sented, including airships, balloons, aeroplanes and all the appliances con nected. Not even the proper dress Is forgotten, for in some of the bal loon cars dolls in practical, and not too airy, costumes show ladies what they should wear when sailing in thg sky. Of the airships competing the Ger man specimens are naturally the greatest in number and include all the systems that have hitherto proved best, except the Gross military bal loon .whicn is not coming—for mili tary reasons. There are, however, two Parseval balloons, also purchased by the Ger man government, a motor airship con structed by Herr Clouth of Cologne; another built by Herr Erbstoer, who works with the assistance of the Ger man minister of war; the Zeppelin, the favorite of all, and, among many others, one of new shape, like a mush room, built by Herr Rodecti of Munich —one of the most indefatigable and clever of German aeronauts. The two great rival firms, Erhard and Krupp, both send exhibits. Krupp sends guns that reach balloons and airships in flight, and also guns that can be carried in balloons, probably resembling those shown at Paris in December, which were mitrailleuses. Erhard sends armor-plated flying ma chines. There will he something of special interest to see every day. The bal loons will always be cruising about, thus giving an idea of what the world will look like when flying machines become general. On at least sixty days there will be races and compe titions of different kinds. There will also be a great marine spectacle, winding up with a battle of the future—a Dava! aerial contest between ships and vest 'a of the air. If the visitors desire they can eith er take part, in long flights In motor balloons (and many such tripß are planned to places in the neighborhood of Frankfort and to the Taunus moun tains at a cost, of SSO), or they can indulge in a voyage in a captive bal loon and take a birds-eye view of ev erythirig going on.

The three important sections of the new proposed law are os follows: Section 1. No policy of insurance shall be Issued or delivered in this state by any company organized under the iawa of this state or by any company author ized to do business therein which shall omit any provision required by' this act or contain any restriction prohibited by this act, nor until a copy of tlTe form thereof shall have been filed with the superintendent of insurance, nor there after or after the final decision of the court in the event of a petition for re view as hereinafter provided. if uie superintendent of insurance shnTi notify' the company in writing that such policy does not comply with this act. The superintendent of insurance shall speci fy the reasons for his ruling to the com pany affected thereby, which ruling shall be subject to review by any court ot competent jurisdiction upon petition ot the company rued within sixty days al ter the receipt thereof by the company. Section 11 Every policy of insurance against accidental bodil injuries or dis ease, or both, issued in tnis state shun be printed in type no. smaller than long primer or ten point typ*?, and shall have printed on the face and on the back thereof a title correctly describing same, and shall state the time when the in surance thereunder shall become effec tive. Section 111. Every such policy, with a copy of the application therefor, if any, and of such other papers as may be at tached to or endorsed thereon, shall con stitute the entire contract of Insurance, except as the same may be affected by any table of rates or classification of risks flleu by me company with the superintendent of insurance. During the memorable debate of presi dents of insurance companies Mr. Arm strong, who was then president of an eastern company, said among other things: "I do not believe with some that the purchaser of accident, insurance Is get ting more than he is entitled to *n the main features, but I do think that up t o the present time in moat cases he is buy ing a very peculiar document. Many of the policies which are now issued are complex and complicated in their verb iuge, peculiar in their construction and involved In their arrangement. I be lieve iliat the greatest service that on be rendered to the companies today is to inane frank, plain, Blmple, unambigu ous policies and to render me service therein agreed, rather than to tack on each year upon the already archaic structure of the policies, new and pe culiar architectural devices known as ad dftional, special, extraordinary and grandiloquent benefits. AUTOMOBILE CLUB GETS WAR OFFICE TjONDON.—The old war office In Pall-Mall is now a thing of the past —with the exception of that portion of it which was reserved for the use of the office of works. On the site there will soon arise the clubhouse of the Royal Automobile club, which promises to be among the handsom est buildings of its kind in London. The new structure will have some thing like a quarter of a million spent upon it. It will contain over one hundred bed-rooms, a swimming bath, and a Turkish bath. There will also be three squash racquet courts and complete accommodations for those members who are interested in pho tography. A great advantage to the club in the new premises will be that, all its departments will be under one roof, instead of being scattered as at pres ent. A feature of the new building will be a large terrace, whereon members will be able to take their ease.

It is deliberately built.” And this is the viewpoint, MR. ADVERTISER, that we want you to occupy when we ask you for your good dollars for advertising space in The Sun day Herald. Does The Sunday Herald give you value in circulation, value in its clientele of homes and readers, value in Augusta, value in South Car olina and Georgia, in the trade territory of Augus ta ? And, granting that The Sunday Herald is bigger and better and has more readers in Augusta and in South Carolina, and Georgia than ever before — that it has a circulation of 8,265 copies, and is rapid ly growing, the further question conies up—are its suberibers and readers ad readers and purchasers of goods as well? Are Herald readers intelligent and prosperous and loyal—will they support and patronize reputable firms who use its columns? These are pretty pertinent questions. But they are questions that we want you, MR. MERCHANT, to ask yourself and to satisfy yourself thoroughly before you consent to give up good money Cor ad vertising space at reasonable rates in The Herald. C If The Herald doesn’t render in return, a 100 cents on the dollar for every sum given it both for sub scription and advertising, in the Daily and Sunday Herald, then we guarantee to refund the money and cancel the contract, n “It takes a plan, and work, money, and perseverance, to make a medium which will stand preeent-day medium tests.” We want every advertiser to test The Sunday Herald’s claims for honest value in circulation, both in Augusta and outside the city, and in the char acter and quality and loyalty and responsiveness of Herald readers. Reputable and enterprising firms (and we will not knowingly permit any others in The Herald) who use The Herald as an advertising medium of tried and tested value and worth, know just what Herald advertising can and has and will do. It will do the same for you. “The worth-while medium Is bul It by years ot well-directed labor on the part of a publisher who take* advertising seriously. He begins by MAKING A PAPER WHICH IS OF THE UTMOST REAL PRACTI CAL VALUE TO HIS READERS. A clearing house of helpful informa tion. This Is done only by carefu I study of the needs of readers on the one hand and the ability of writers on the other. And It costs lots of money. “But when all the expense has been Incurred to make the right pa per the work of making a good medium is only just begun. ■’For while a few nundred or a few thousand readers will subscribe quickly, there are three times as many readers necessary to cover the field fairly well; and they are hard to get." It has taken The Sunday Herald, just as it has the Daily, many years of hard work to build up its pres ent circulation of 8,265 copies. But the important point is that this circulation is growing and will, we believe, continue to grow as The Herald serves the people with a newspaper that meets their needs and requirements. And this The Herald has always placed foremost in its newspaper life and existence —a people’s paper —a paper for the people—with views and not afraid to express them. That there are a good many people in this good old Augusta of ours and in South Carolina and Georgia who like and read and subscribe for just this kind of a, paper, The Herald’s circulation books amply prove. “To adequately judge of the merits of a newspaper as an advertising medium, it is necessary to know—First, the merits of the paper from the reader’s standpoint " We want you to apply this test to The Sunday Herald and to its thousands of readers and sub scribers. Ask them what they think of The Sunday Herald. “Second (but not second in importance), one needs to know all about the subscription campaign and how successful it Is.” And this is what, we would like to show in detail to every advertiser who is interested. Iri the city of | -Augusta alone the circulation of The Herald for the i first six months of this vear shows a net gain and increase of 1,201 subscribers. The out-of-town circulation of The Ileral 1 in South Carolina and Georgia in the trade territory of Augusta already shows 2,371 subscribers, and is growing even more rapidly than the city circulation. There are 123 towns in this territory tributary to Augusta where The Sunday Herald already goes and with the present rate of increase we feel confi dent that we can and will double this number of towns and the number of Herald readers in Geor gia and South Carolina before the end of the year. The advertiser who buys newspaper space as he buys goods insists on the. best for his trade. If the patronage of the thousands of Herald readers in Augusta and in South Carolina and Geor gia is something you want for your business - the best way in fact, the only way, in which you can reach them and appeal to them as Herald Readers is through the columns of the Daily and Sunday Herald PAGE FIVE
