Measure introduced Putting
Commonwealth Into
Insurance Business
SUCCESS ELSEWHERE
Advocate of Measure Declares Rate
Has Been Rapidly Lowered and
Large Fun Accumulated

Richmon Jan. 31.-State insurance
under the worllmen's compensation
act is the purpose of bill introduced
IN the House of Delegates yesterday
by Robert o. Norris, of Lancaster, and
having fifteen co-patrons. A COM
panion measure was introduced in the
Senate by Senators Trinkle and Gum.
Delegate Norris, in explaining his
bill, stated that under the provisions
of the present workmens compensa-
ton act Of Virginia, the common law
defense of negligence no longer can
be interposed by the employer cf
labor. The existing law provides that
an employer must either furnish self
insurance or take out insurance
against liability under the act IN some
authorized insurance company.
With the common law defense cf
negligence removed, only the strong
est concerns financially can offord TO
furnish self-insurance, Mr.. Norris
said, the result being that the great
bulk of employers in Virginia must
insure in some liability company.
While the act purposes to authorize
the State Insurance Commissioner Of
regulate rates, he is powerless, the
Delegate from Lancaster argues, for
the reason that the liability insurance
companies are foreign concerns, and
can and do refuse to do business in
Virginia unless the rates fixed by
them are accepted.
Under the bill introduced by Mr..
Norris, the plan which has been
adopted viii success in West Virginia
is followed closely. It provides for
State insurance. The rates are fixed
BY the industrial commission, with
power to increase or decrease same
and the business is operated on cost
basis. A fund is to be created out
Of which all liabilities are 20 be paid.
SO we'll has the plan succeeded N
West Virginia, according to M. Ncr-
ris, that the rates have decreased uH-
til they now range from only 10 TO 4
per cent Of what they were, rarying
MS to the class of business and fund
of between $6,O00,oOO and S7,00o,O00
has been created.
Mr.. Norris estimates that the peo-
pie of Virginia will be saved $780,
900 annually if the proposed bill be-
comes law. An additional and distinct
advantage, the chief patron of the bill
points out, is that the entire fund
will be kept and invested within the
State of Virginia.
The bill was referred to the Corn
mittee on General Laws.

BOSTON, Feb. 5-The collapse of
ceiling in a class room Of the
Geofge T. Angel school in Roxbury
today caused injuries to one boy. The
fact that there was no school session
because of storm probably saved in
juries to many pupils. A teacher and
five boys were in the room. The boy
hurt was caught beneath the ceiling
and the school janitor, unable to ex-
tricate him, called on the fire depart
ment for help. The school commit
tee ordered the school closed pending
an investigation.
