. group OF insurance agents, John
Marshall Holcombe, jr., Hartford,

Columbia Chapter, Chartered Life
Underwriters, and their guests at
their fourth annual dinner at the
Carlton Hotel last night.
Many prominent Government ON
cials and leading business and pro-

guests. Earle w. Bradley, head of
the national organization, was the
guest of honor and extended brief
fluctuations. H. Cochran Fisher
president Of the District Chapter,
presided. and the attendance was
the largest on record for these ban
quets.
Mr.. Holcombe, who is head of
the Life Insurance Sales Research
Bureau at Hartford, spoke on Bet
ter Distribution of Life Insurance :"
Picturing the amazing progress
made in life insurance research in
the last 20 years, he gave credit to
big life insurance companies, which
he said, through cooperation and
the sharing of the expense, have
made the achievements possible.
Lapse Causes Traced.
The question of lapses has been
one Of the biggest problems, he
said. BY the chain of causation"
method, every factor bearing on the
lapse is traced back to the begin
ming. In this way the final cause
for the lapse is known. These fac
tors include contracts the company
had with the policyholders after
the insurance was first taken, as well
as preparation which the agent and
the company made for making the
sale.
The research bureau found there
are three levels of responsibility for
insurance policy lapses-the home
ofice Of the company, the local
manager and the agent. Mr.. Hol-
combe asserted. It is necessary for
the company to set certain stand
ards in choosing the local manager,
the local agent and the policy
holder.
Among the distinguished guests
listed at the banquet were Will

 Up Demands

OKLAHOMA CITY, March 13- Gov. Leon C. Phillips has ordered the National Guard mobilized to back up the Governors claim for indemnities from the Federal Works Administration.
 Gov Phillips has claimed that Uncle Sam owes Oklahoma $890,000 for the destruction of the state bridges and roads at the Rand River and the Red River dam pro- jects
 The state properties will be flood cd when the dams begin to impound the river waters.
 The Governor made good a threat when he ordered the militia mob- ilized to take over the Federal prop critics. Reports said that Federal Works Administrator Carmados had made an offer of S350 900 in indem- nity which Governor Phillips de- clared was far too small an amount.

PRISON WITHOUT BARS" !S FEATURED
 AS CAPITOL BILL
Corinne Luthaire, Native Parisienne, r Years
 Old, Is Star

The stirring and dramatic ex- periences of a beautiful French girl, who finds herself locked behind the cold, gray walls of reform school for girls, located on the outskirts of Paris is poignantly and moving ly told in Alexander Korda's Prison Without Bars" which comes tonight to the Capitol Theater, with Corinne Luchaire, MT. Kordas newest discovery, playing the hero inc of the story.
 Miss Luchaire, blonde, svelte, and beautiful. is a native Parisienne, and was discovered by MT. Korda when he was visiting the French capital and saw the young actress in Q French film She is only seventeen years of age and speaks English perfectly.
 The supporting cast of Prison Without Bars" headed by Barry Barnes and Edna Best, also fea- lures a trio of newcomers - Mary Morris, Lorraine Clewes and Sally Wisher-three lucky girls who are headed for stardom. In addition, hundreds of girls impersonate the doomed inmates of the penal insti- sutton in this melodrama which spotlights the sinister life and grim doings of human beings caught m the web of the law. During the course of it's action, the film makes an eloquent plea for more enlight- enment and more humaneness in the treatment of societys outcasts.
 A thrilling and romantic note is introduced in the film by the TO- nance which develops between Cor inne Luchaire and Barry Barnes, who impersonateS the doctor in the school, and is, incidentally. the only man in the cast.

Garrison said, how ever, that it worked successfully in England. But there, he con- ceded. the rival labor leaders sit down together and argue their cases. CIO and AFL will not do that.
 There are complaints against the board outside of the AFL-CIO group. Members of the House in- vestigating committee think the boards rules of evidence are too loose. Almost anybody can say al- most anything at a labor hearing, committee members have said, and the testimony will be considered. The board says such evidence is considered only for what it is worth.
 Again, members of the commit tee feel the board has gone far beyond it's powers in some re- spects, notably in imposing pen aIties. For instance the Waumbec Mills of Manchester N. H., were to employ and give back wages to man who never had worked for the company. The board found that he had been re- fused a job because of union affi- liation. The case is now on test.

 The announcement from Moscow that the peace treaty had already been signed was too startling to be believed immediately in Helsinki.
 Torn With Revolt
 The Finnish Parliament continued it's deliberations while the Govern ment was torn wit h open revolt against the terms of the surrender.
 Great Britain and France were stunned by the sudden development but still hoped that Finland might rally it's forces and give the Allies an opportunity to go to her aid.
 Neutrals Shocked
 The official summary of the main points of the Russia Finnish peace treaty announced in Moscow shock ed neutral opinion throughout the world because Russia is to gain sub stantial territory, military rights, and trade and shipping advantages, with strips of her eastern frontier lands amputated in the south, in the Lake Ladoga section and in the far north. Finland can only console herself by the thought that she will seem to be outwardly free and independent nation, even though de- feated by overwhelming odds.

 Green didn't hide his reasons. Skilled craftsmen who bargain in- dependently get more than when they are Jumped in with the un- skilled brackets = and the AFaL pushes organization by crafts.
 Because of the boards disposi- ton in this regard, Green asked that the whole board be removed and a new one substituted whose policy would be to let craftsmen bargain when they chose.

Suggests Grounds for
Deporting Bridges.
To the Editor Of The Star,

10 tne EultOr OF Inc star:
It appears from a news item in this
mornings papers that the Attorney Cen
eral of the United States is lamenting
to high heaven that Congress may en-
act legislation requiring the deportation
of certain Mr.. Harry Bridges (who is
not now and never has been an American
citizen), since 1t has been found impos-
sible by the means heretofore available
to rid the country Of him.
Now have not the least doubt that
Mr.. Lands, who found Mr.. Bridges nom
exportable under existing conditions, and
Miss Perkins (who seems to have ex-
tended him every aid and comfort within
her power) are no less displeased with
the proposed congressional action.
Every alien should, Of course, be free
to foment discord and break down dis
cipline in this country and receive the
sympathy and comfort of the constituted
authorities while so doing.
The issue, as Mr.. jackson SO cogently
remarks, is much broader than the bill.
Mr.. Bridges. as he says, "Does not de-
serve place In our history as martyr" !"
and he certainly will not receive it from
any but the sloppiest of sources; nor
does Mr.. jackson err in observing that
Mr.. Bridges "is insignificant compared
to the issues presented by this brl"-
and it might be added by the necessities
out Of which it arose.

the District" the solemn fact is that
what is everybody's business is no
body's business"
To remedy the situation, Senator
Gibson recommended representation
of the Capital community in Con-
gress. He consistently sympathized
with Washingtonians in their plight,
listened to them with patience, gave
them such assistance as lay in his
power. His services as chairman of a
subcommittee of the District Com
mittee, charged with the investiga-
tion OF the police force in 1890, were
especially useful.
In wider field Of enterprise in
which more recently Senator Gibson
had spent his energies, he was ap-
preciated particularly for his earnest
devotion to principle. Throughout
his career, as teacher, lawyer, soldier
and statesman, he consciously was
concerned to maintain the highest
standards of American idealism. Few
men have been more deeply anxious
to furnish a good example of patriot
ism, obedience to law, faithfulness to
tried and tested methods of pro-
cedure and enthusiasm for steady
progress. He was gentle in manner,
generous in his attitude toward life
and toward his fellow pilgrims in the
world. His neighbors in Washington
will remember him for his talents
and for the noble character of the
purposes for which he employed
them.

Getting Started

Favorable reaction in Congress to
the selective compulsory military
training bill sponsored by the Mill
tary Training Camps Association of
the United States is a most encour-
aging indication that the legislators
finally have made up their minds to
deal with this urgent problem before
adjournment.
The measure would require the
registration Of an estimated 40,OOO,-
600 persons between the ages of
eighteen and sixty-five. Those be-
tween twenty-one and forty-flve
would be eligible for military train
Ing, while the others would be
registered for instruction in home
defense and other emergency duties.
At the outset, the bill has the
advantage Of bipartisan support,

Senator Gibson

1t is with profound regret that the
people of the Nations Capital have
learned of the death of Senator
Ernest Willard Gibson of Vermont.
They knew and valued him as a
helpful friend to a voteless and
otherwise arbitrarily handicapped
community. At first in the House Of
Representatives and later in the
upper branch Of the Federal legisla-
ture, he did much to aid the move
ment for political and fiscal equity in
the District Of Columbia.
Experience prompted Senator Glib
son to declare his belief that Wash
ington should have a delegate in
Congress who could devote his time
to the city's affairs" He was familiar
with the fact that while in theory it
is true that every member is Sup
posed to look after the interests Of
