PAGE FI.v4i ■'If I inadi/ei'tenuy leave my cai' keys in the ignition and the auto is stolen, am I covered by insurance?\ a reader inq.uires. Yes. generally you would be pro tected by insurahce — but you would also be guilty of an act of careless ness that accounts lor the vast ma jority of car thefts. You-mlght also be guilty of breaking the laws of your city. According to figures released by the Federal Bureau of InvesUgsitlnn, moi e than 800 ears are stolen in the United States every day.-About 70 per cent of these thefts result from keys carelessly left in the' parked vehicles. This is true despite ordi nances in effect In large cities mak ing it unlawful to leave keys in an unattended car or even to park un locked cars on the street. Because so many motorists forget- 'fully leave their keys in the auto, one of the first questions the police ask of a person reporting his car stolen is: \Were the keys left in the car?\ The police report e great number of the cars stolen wei’e taken by joy riding Juveniles. Authorities contend that if all parked cars were locked and keys removed! auto thefts by juveniles would be cut 50 per cent The frightening facts.are, accord ions' .to an' FB! report, ■ithnt' ln.rl8&e ^ m e 288,300 automobiles were stolen — about one car every 1.8 minutes. The average value of the vehicles was listed as $829. Leaving the keys in your car in vites theft, trouble, and eventually may result in increased insurance rates for you and your neighbors because premiums are based on loss experience.

JO Expert Male & Female Operaton \A friend of mine dropped his rallet containing $75 into 40 feel )f water during a recem fishing.trip. Under his form of homeowners )olicy he U covered for mysterious iisappearance. Con my friend his money back?” u reader queries. No. he cannot. -The- loss of this wallet cannot be described as a nyslerious disappearance. True, the wallet has disappeared; but it ob viously sank to the bottom of the briny. There is no mystery about what happened to it. By the same token, if the watch you have been wearing is no longer strapped to your wrist, it is reason able to assume it was lost; but it is unreasonable to classify the loss as a mysterious disappearance. However, if the w a ^ h is stored In n place of .safe keeping and vanishes one day with a presumption of theft, it may be proper to consider this a mysterious disappearance and to «laim the los.s under youi* policy. A recent court decision spelled out Ihe conditions for mysterious dis appearance: \The policy is a theft policy. The hazard Insured against is that of theft. It does not cover or propose to cover property mislaid or lost ...\ AnoLher decision stated: ‘If an article has been lost or left in some unrecalled place and can-; not be located. ChU^ls n o t.a mysterr. Sous disappearance but .minpiy a-l»»t article\ Mysterious disappearance coverage i.s Included in most homeownerp policies, providing, a valuable form of protection.
