Summary: 


The belief that the RLDS church will not be able to continue its line of
authority because the current prophet has no son is not correct.  There is
more than one direct blood line back to Joseph Smith.  The next prophet of
the RLDS church will not be the current prophets son, but he will be a direct
descendent of Joseph Smith.

This is how it was explained to me when I visited the RLDS headquarters in
Missouri in 1982.  I am not RLDS myself.
