PHILADELPHIA, Pa.,-Black people are being dupped out of millions of dollars every year by fly-by-night insurance companies, a Philadelphia insura n c e executive recently
charged.
The accusation was made by Warren Scruggs, executive director of the Hurley Ashborne Insurance Agency, 5125 Walnut, on a local radio show, “Hot
Wire.”
Thacher Longstreth, head of the Greater PhiladelphiaChamber of Commerce, praised Scruggs as “an intelligent, highly principled black businessman who is truly serving the black community by filling a need that is not being filled
by others.” /
Mr. Scruggs is ,founder of the Afro-Americaw Autonfl&bile
B . mm Association. He asserted:** ‘‘Up

accessible companies, you might as well not even have insurance, because they don't pay off their big claims.” The West Philadelphiaexecutive said that even if you then sue the company, the case won’t come to court for about fiv£ years, and by then the company will be out of business. “They siphon off their funds into another business and declare bankruptcy,” he stated. “After that happens there's no way in the world you can make them pay off the claim, even if you were not at fault, so you must pay it out of your own pocket.” Mr. Scruggs said there are currently 295,000 people in Pennsylvania who are being made to pay off such claims by the state, even though they did have automobile insurance at the time of their accidents. Mr. Scruggs criticized the department of licenses and inspections for forcing him to take down his sign over Walnut St. advertising the Afro-Ameri-can Autobomile Association. “They’re so busy making me take down my sign they don't have time to help people who really need it,” he said. He also attacked the large insurance companies for discrimination against Negroes and said that Negro insurance needs could never be met until this discrimination is stopped. “Until they begin to write insurance, regardless of your skin color or the section of the city you live in, this problem will continue to get worse,” he said.
