North Carolina Auto Insurance Rate Hike Draws Opposition
Nelson Taylors, attorney for the Chamber of Commerce, challenged a proposed auto liability rate increase as discriminatory at a hearing before State Insurance Commissioner Charles F. Gold.

Bragg warned a 30 percent rise could burden troops, while Cumberland Insurance Exchange opposed a 50 percent regional rise.
