In the last week or two the rumors
and gossip about reorganization of
the Republican National Committee
have been running strongly. This has
largely been due to the fact that
Chairman Everett Sanders of the
committee has been seriously i'll. But
should Mr.. Sanders step out of the
Craftsmanship there is at present no
unanimity of opinion among the Re-
publicans as to his successor. They
frankly shake their heads-except
those who are candidates or who are
friends of candidates for the job-and
say they would not know where to
turn. OF course, there is and has

INSURANCE IS
 GOOD BUSINESS
Plan Proving Success in
 Oklahoma Shows First Annual Report
BY FRANK McNAUGHTON United Press Staff Correspondent

ShhONu A kNsoo chUhA Oklahoma City, (UP) - Oklaho- mas semi-Socialist experiment, the State I industrial Compensation Fund, is proving a big cuccess, ac- cording to Chester Napps, director. Set up with capital of 5000, through jaw passed last year, the states insurance business all ready has grown to more than 500 active policies for total risks of more than $400,000.
 As several private risk insur- ance companies quit the field be- cause of tax burdens and losses, the number of state policies has leaped, Napps said, with 200 writ ten in the past two months. He explained that the state insurance fund operates on approximately five per cent overhead, while pri- vate companies have recorded overhead expenses of 15 per cent up to 25 per cent.
 An attractive feature of the state insurance is that its rate was set 15 per cent lower than usual commercial rates.
 Today, the fund has cash on hand of $S0,O00, $1O0.000 of earned premiums, and $40,OOO in process of collection. Earned pre- miums for January and Febru- ary ran $30,000 a month, and Napps believes this figure will be raised considerably within the next year.
 The loss rate has been around 10 per cent much lower, Napps said, than commercial insurance concerns. This is due to the rigid policy adopted in writing the state insurance. Scores of policies are turned down each month be- cause the applicant is an unsafe risk. If the physical examination required before policy is written shows some physical defects in the applicant, with possibility of early death, the risk is rejected.

Peace in Industry Long Unbroken
BY WILLIS THORNTON NEA Staff Cnrreslnsndent

Detroit, Mich.,--Here at the cen ter of a circle within whose 200- mile radius 90 per cent of all Anne. fcan autos are quilt. people fec like a man who has spent foui years in q hospital bed, is led oui by his Lurse for hi f 'rst walk. and suddenly feels new pain which never troubled him before. There is sinking feeling of "Do have to go through that again?"
 They can't believe that a gen. eral auto stike will really come There never has been major labor trouble in Detroit and people have come to feel secure in the thought that somehow Detroit was differ ent.Citadel for cars of the open shop, and proud of it, the feeling here has been that somehow the wonderful city was different.
 SMALLER MERCHANTS
 FEAR EFFECT OF STRIKE
 Detroit and all southeast ern Michigan thinks, sleeps. eats, and dreams automobiles. The 2,0OD.~ 900 people in this circle all realize that if 100000 them who work at autos go off the job they are all sunk. The taxi driver mourn fully expects that if the strike comes. "I'll be back where I was two years ago." The cigar store proprietor rec,.ons that. 'If they so out I T. .ght as we'll lock the door and go fish'rg. And the butcher, baker and candlestick- maker all realize that if an auto payroll of q million dollars d day is suddenly withdrawn from circl- lation in this motor circle. it is just kiss good night until the flow is restored.
 You know the motor car is king here as soon as you see. the wide boulevards, the four-lane high ways leading out of town in every direction. and the fine free-hand traffic regulations that apparently permit double parking, and speed at all, catch -as- -catch-can at the corners-and the motorists is al- ways right!
 Detroit's metropolitan looking business section centers on city hall that is a genuine antique. From this radiate avneues leading to suburban sections where spread the dozens of auto plants ranging in size from Ford's leviathan be. side the Rouge at Dearborn to small machine shops. Most of the auto workers who live in the city proper are the single men so plen- tiful in this industrial picture who live in rows of dingy rooming houses that were once high toned residential sections.

On the citys outskirts clustered about their respective plants as near as possible are streets of working mems homes, small bungalow frame houses like summer col: tages. As you pass Ferndale and Highland Park and get farther from the city, the houses grow larger and the estates more spa cious through Birmingham and Bloomfield Hills. There is a brief stretch of open country and then again the rows of cheap frame cottages appear.

 the near-1929 pay scales and would just as soon go along as at present but who will probably join
