House Committee on Immi-
grafton, Labor and Sta
tistics to Hold Meeting in
Commercial Club Rooms.
POSITION TAKEN BY
THE INSURANCE MEN
Secretary of State Fedora
ton Explains Attitude of
the Organization Toward
Pending Measure-Claim
Plan Not Successful.

The house committee on immigra-
ton, abor and statistics will meet to-
night at 1880 o'clock with commit
tee from the Commercial club to dis
cuss the workmens compensation bill
drawn by Representative Bates of Ada
county.
Frank Ensign, secretary of the In
surance Federation of Idaho. in an in
tervieW today, gives out the position
of the insurance men, on the bill. His
statement concerning it Is as follows:
The few states that now provide
for state monopoly have not success
fully carried out this plan, although
they claim that state management can
give lower rates and as good service
as private enterprise.
IF state managed funds can give
both lower rates and as good service
as commercial companies no monopoly
will be needed. If monopoly is
created employers have no opportunity
to criticiZ2 the management nor to OBJ
ject to the amount of costs assessed
to them. If the fund should be mis-
managed and become insolvent either
injured Workmen and their dependents
would suffer or the tax payers would
be forced to bear the burden, an in
justice in either case.
LABOR WORLDS VIEW.
The editor of the Labor World in it's
issue of Nov. 30 states:
"'While we cmphatically believe that
private enterprise can accomplish more
than the state in lines of business in
general we have not yet absolutely de-
clared our opposition to the operations
of state funds. Where they are in OPP
Grafton let them prove their real basic
soundness and ability to make good
in the true sense of the term, without
subsidies or favors of any kind from
the state that will give them an ad-
vantage over private enterprise. This
will be absolute justice to the tax
PAYERS and it is the safest and most
certain way to arrive at the truth. AS
a result we will then know how to pro-
cecd on this compensation matter. Far
better will il be for each state wherein
there are no such funds to wait until
experience proves which is the safest
and best method to operate o work
mems compensation system.
1--WE have, hOweVe' declared our
opposition to all methods of state OPP
erations in cases that deprive private
enterprise or an none 81 ana 1aif
chance to compete for business that
the state is engaged in; we further
hold that the state should not do any
thing to hamper the success of private
initiative that is lawful, and we are
unaltcrably opposed to a state com
pensation fund that denies private en-
terprise of the right to compete against
it: in other words we are utterly OPP
posed to Il compulsory state fund for
compensation to workmen.'
This seems to be a fair statement
from the labor point of view of reason
able opposition to experimenting with
such vital natter
