Motherhood is a real job and if we expect to make a success of this most important of all Jobs, we must apply thought, effort and time as we do to less important ones.

O'Malley, superintendent of Insurance for the state of Missouri, of the precarious condition of the Manufacturing Lumberman’s Underwriters, a reci- procal exchange of Kansas City, Missouri. So serious are the finan- cial difficulties facing this insur ance organization that Superinten dent O'Malley has advised holders of policies or contracts to cancel their policies and properly protect them selves with other insurance. A recent examination of the af- fairs of the exchange disclosed that during the first ten months of 1936 Its losses exceeded a million dollars due largely to charging inadequate rates. Large additional losses hava more recently occurred by fire, flood and water damage in the Ohio val ley region against which this ex change carried substantial coverage. Reasons advanced by Commission er Earle for following the advice sent out by the Missouri official are based on the following facts: First, the members or policyhold ers of the exchange are, under the Oregon law. responsible for the los ses and expenses of operating the exchange, and this responsibility continues until their policies are canceled either by the member or policyholder, his attorney-in-fact, or by a court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the attorneys nor any court has canceled these policies. Second, recent reports on the fi nancial condition of the exchange are very discouraging and losses oc curring under these policies will in all probability not be paid for many months and possibly for years.
