NEW INSURANCE
SCHEDULE NOW
BEING PLANNED

“Dean Analytic” System 01’
Ratings For Fire Protec-
tion Studied For Nor-
walk. -

A new schedule of fire insurance
ratings which will affect Norwalk
and surrounding towns. and which
will mean rate reductions in many
cases and rate increases in others.
is being worked out here. according
to an announcement today by Her-
bert O. Pollard. insurance broker.
Wall street.

The new system is known as the
Dean analytic schedule of ratings.
and is at present in use in many of
New England's leading cities. includ-
ing Hartford. Worcester. and Spring-
field. Representatives of the Bos-
ton insurance headquarters have
been investigating conditions hero
for the past few months. and expect
to complete their report by the be-
glnning of the new year. They in-
spect fire facilities. and also build-
ing specifications. including thick-
ness of walls. wiring insulation. etc.

Mr. Pollard said this morning that
the Dean analytic system is a basis
of rating. and has worked very well
in larger cities. He says the rate will
not be affected to any great extent
here. The present investigation is
independent of the recent rate raise
in Norwalk and vicinity.

tion of carrying out an alleged
threat to kill his wife.

His wife. Mary Byrnes, airing her
side of the grievance that made her
ask his arrest Sunday when he came
home intoxicated, stated on the
stand that her spouse greeted the
daylight each morning by toasting
her: “Bad luck in you: fast and‘

tempt a. divorce. Testimony through-

in the case of prominent people.
would have startled the country.

"They say l'm crazy." said Mrs.
Byrnes. “and of course I'm crazy. or
