MURPHY CONTENDS
STATE GAINED ON
REINSURANCE Plan
Says Payment by Outside Com.
panies Protected State Fund
From Crushing Loss

Contention that the state saved
$4,000 in connection with the cap
itol building fire as the result of re-
jecting a plan proposed by the state
insurance department, which sought
to have insurance on all state build
ings carried by the state fund ex-
clusively, was made today by II. T.
Murphy, local insurance agent.
Murphy, who had been appointed
BY the state insurance department to
represent 1t in the settlement Of the
capitol building claim, took no part
In the conference Wednesday at
which the matter was settled, the
reason being the objection of Insur-
ance Commissioner s. A. Olsness.
Commenting on the settlement,
however. Murphy contends that pay
ment by outside and old-line COM
panies Of 100000 of the total loss Of
1886 900, proves his contention that
the reinsurance requirement in the
state law is sound.
The fact that policies totaling
$628,000 were placed with outside
companies, Murphy said, is duo to
the knowledge Of Bismarck people
who realized that the building, be-
cause of the type of construction and
its deteriorated condition, was q bad
insurance risk. Everyone knew.
Murphy said, that If a fire started
in the building it was liable to get
out of control. It also was felt,
Murphy said. that if the building
burned the state fund should not
stand the entire loss and for that
reason he resisted the effort to elm

mate the reinsurance featur: from
the law.
Murphy quoted from the insurance
commissioners report for 1927 to
show that the insurance departments
view was that the time had arrived
to stop the practice of placing re-
insurance"
Partly because he opposed it, Muir
ply said. the legislature rejected the
suggestion.
Again in his 1929 report. recently
published, Nun ply said, the insur-
ence commissioner commented: II
firmly believe that the practice OF
placing reinsurance should be dis
continued"
Commenting on a statement in
Thursdays Tribune that Olsness and
himself had engaged in numerous
jousts in recent years, Murphy said
the statement vas true because OF
the fact that he had sought to
change the views Of the insurance de-
partmcnt officials on the matter of
handling the insurance of public
buildings. He commended, he said,
that insurance on large public build
ings should be distributed among a
number Of companies in order that
any heavy losses might not be levied
upon the state fund alone.
The fact that the state will collect
$685., 900 from outside companies while
the state fund pays only 100000
proves the soundncss Of his contel1-
ton, Murphy said.

ARIZONA PLANS
REFERENDUM ON
PROPOSED BILL

PHOENIX, Ariz., May %. tU.P)-
Fourteen provisions of Senate bill
ll6. passed in the closing hours OF
the last legislative session, were
automatically suspended from be-
coming effective June u today
when petitions providing for a ref
erendum at the general election IN
November, 1882, were filed with
Secretary of State Scott White.
The bill, an administration mea-
sure, provided for an economic sur
yey of all taxable property in Ari-
zona and appropriated S250,000 for
that purpose. The sections against
which the referendum is directed
include those creating tax survey
commission, and the appropriation.
Sections repeating house bill l27 OF
the ninth legislature and reducing
delinquent tax penalties were not
mentioned by the petition.
Acceptance of the petition by the
secretary of state prevented the law
from becoming effective on June IL
and thereby stopped a movement
for creation of the special tax COM
mission.
Ten thousand names OF registered
voters from all sections of Arizona
were on the petition. which was
circulated by the Phoenix and Mesa
chambers of commerce. This is ap-
proximately twice the number Of
signatures required. representing 10
per cent of the states voting popu-
lation, whereas the referendum re-
quirement is for per cent Of the
registered voters.
During the 10th session, the bill
encountered unexpected opposition
and was passed only after Governor
George w. P. Hunt sent both houses
a special message requesting action.
The bill did not have enough
strength to pass with an emergency
clause, requiring two-thirds ma
iority, and was presented without
