To Members, North Dakota Bankers
Association: ,.Yi;s.
Bankers and business men Of North
Dakota should not allow the action
taken recently by the clearing
house associations in the principal
cities of the United States to create
any uneasiness or apprehension in
their minds or the minds Of their GUS
toners and clients, and this, bulletin
is sent out in order that the situa.
ton may be clearly understood.
Owing to the war situation in Eu-
rope, all International financial trans.
actions have gone on d gold basis.
Even tourists travelling in Europe are
compelled to pay current EXPENSES in
gold. American bankers must make
good for foreign drafts drawn by them
in gold, and large numbers of foreign

turn to their native country ind are
endeavoring to take back with them

American bankers for these reasons
find it necessary to conserve all gold,
and currency exchangeable for gold,

this country and are isuing clearing

It is a very simple precautionary
proposition and need cause no lineas-

CONGRESSMAN TALBOT FOR SEN
ATOR SMITH
Declares Senator Smith Would Be
Re-EIected For Another Term.


Congressman Talbot discussed
the Maryland political situation with
President Wilson at Washington,
July 2. The visit Of Mr.. Talbot last
ed only about ten minutes, but in
those ten minutes Mr.. Talbot made
an earnest effort to present to the
President the tangled politics in the
Democratic party as seen by him. He
assured the President that Senator
Smith would be renominated for the
Senate without any difficulty and Mr..
Talbot with characteristic optimism
declared that Mr.. Smith would be re
elected for another term in the Senate
lasting six years.
Mr.. Talbot explained that he was
not the representative OF Senator
Smith in this interview pointing out
that his relations with both Senator
Smith and Senator Lee were cordial,
but that he would support Senator
Smith under all circumstances. He
expressed his satisfaction that Mr..
Guy w. Steele has been recommended
by Mr. Lee for collector of the port
He told the President that Senator
Smith had not yet determined wheth-
er he would make any recommends
tions for federal positions In Mary
land until the district attorneyship at
Baltimore has been disposed of and
he could learn from the Presidents
action i'm that case whether it would
be advisable to make any further
recommendations. He intimated to the
President Senator Smiths Indifference
to the disposition OF the patronage
and his conviction that the strength
of the party was not dependent upon
the attitude of the Administration to-
ward him.
