eleven mail fraud counts in violation of 18 U.S.C. 1341.
Additionally, appellants Allstate and Karp were indicted and
convicted on two and Karp alone on three false statement counts
in violation of 18 U.S.C. 1010.             We agree.   In our
view, there is no significant difference between the statute
