McKool Sees Auto Insurance Dividends Halt Raise Rates
Dallas Senator Mike McKool charges insurers cut dividend payments to policyholders, billing it as a hidden premium increase. He cites state figures showing $3 million in dividends in 1969, a $3 million drop in 1970, and 17 Texas companies stopping dividends by May 15. He says this equals a 15 percent rate rise atop a 30.9 percent board-approved boost for Dallas County.
