WOULD COST s10.OO0.OOO
Proposed Workingmen' Compensation
Bill Is Probed by Experts Be-
fore Industrial Commission

Members of the State Industrial Ac-
cidents Commission, who held their
final hearing on the proposed Work
men s Compensation bill, at the capital
late yesterday, were informed by C. 5.
Bunting, Philadelphia insurance ex-
pert, that the cost of operating work
for year would approximate $10,-
100000.
Mr.. Bunting based this calculation
upon the experience of New York. He
figured there would be about $4,000
plants of various kinds covered and
that the total of the claims and ad-
ministration cost under the proposed
plan would require that outlay yearly.
He also suggested that the State tax
upon insurance under the compensation
act should be set aside in reserve
fund instead of going into the general
revenue of the Commonwealth. This
tax will amount to about 100000 a
year.
james H. Maurer, president of the
State Federation of Labor, said that
he thought all workmen would elect
to go under the compensation act; but
he asserted that no farmers or domes-
tic servants had asked the federation
to lend its efforts toward being in
cluded in the law. Mr.. Maurer objected
to the medical examination feature and
said it was not needed. In closing he
said that the accident prevention move
ment had grown by leaps and bounds
and that manufacturers were as eager
to work out safety first ideas as
workmen. Conditions are improving so
rapidly, he held, that workmen s com
pensation need not scare anybody
Other speakers included W. H.
Hotchkiss, former Insurance Commits
sioner of New York, who gave some de-
tails of the difficulties into which West
Virginia had gotten with the insurance
of its compensation; Newell Bradley,
Philadelphia, who urged physical ex-
animation, and Francis Rowle and j.
w. Henderson, Philadelphia, who dis
cussed the proposition of having con
suls look after the interests of de-
pendents of aliens who live abroad.

OIL DEMONSTRATIONS
Wildcatting in Missouri Discussed by
U. s. Geological Survey

Washington, d. c., Dec. 1S.-The al
most insatiable demand for gasoline
and other petroleum products seems to
increase as fast as new oil pools can
be discovered. Even the present slump
in the oil industry of this country on
account of the European war has failed
wholly to check the skirmish line of the
wildcatters. One of the regions of late
invasion is Northwestern Missouri.
Advancing from the big pools of Okla
homa northeastward across Southeast
ern Kansas, where pools of modest
production were found long ago, the
wildeatter is now testing the ground in
Missouri i'll the region of Leavenworth,
Kan.
Heretofore the few tests made in
Northwestern Missouri have not met
with very good results. Now. in order
to reduce the number of failures as
far as possible, the drillers have asked
the advice of the Missouri Bureau of
Geology and Mines and the United
States Geological Survey, which not
long ago completed joint examination
of the region.
In response tine geologists have pre-
pared an advance statement to the eff
feet that conditions specially favorable
for the occurrence of a strong pool
have not been found in the Leaven-
worth and Smithville region, though the
geologic structure at several points
which they mention is considerably
better than at others, According to
their statement, there would appear to
be a fighting chance of finding oil or
gas in small quantities in this region,
though, far from finding another great
Glenn pool, the driller must not be
surprised if he gets nothing more than
showing of oil and gas.
