Federal Land Bank of St. Paul Says
New Seed Grain Law Prohibits
Making First Mortgage Farm

Federal Land Bank of St. Paul Says
New Seed Grain Law Prohibits
Making First Mortgage Farm
Loans.
w. A. Peck, who has charge Of the
farm loans for the Minot Farmers
National Farm Loan association, re-
ceived letter from Paul A. Preus,
treasurer of the Federal Land Bank,
of Saint Paul, informing him that in
the future that bank will not be in a
position to close any further farm
loans on the grounds that seed liens
take priority over first mortgage
farm loans, according to the banks in
depreciation of the new seed and grain
law which was enacsed few weeks
ago by special session of the legisla-
ture. If this is true, this will work a
terrible hardship on the farmers Of
North Dakota, for this bank nor any
other will be apt to close farm loans
until this law is changed. The banks
have taken the matter up with the At
torney General in the hopes that some
other Interpretation of the law may
be had, for the banks fear that accord
ing to the wording of the law, seed
liens may be filed prior to mortgages,
indefinitely.
A portion of Mr.. Peck's letter reads
as follows:
with reference to the loans in
which mortgages were recorded in the
past three weeks, you are advised that
the new seed grain law passed by the
recent special session of your legisla-
ture has placed us in a position where
we are not able to close loans in
which our mortgages were recorded on
or after Jan. 20, the date the law was
passed, as the provisions are such
that seed lien takes priority over all
other membranes. We have taken
the matter up with the Attorney Cen
eral and are awaiting his opinion. In
the meantime, all loans in this class
are at standstill. AS you know, I'M
der the Federal Farm Loan act, we are
not permitted to loan except on first
mortgages.
eve realize that this will be SER
ious setback to great many of our
applicants but we will simply have to
make the best of the situation in the
way Of a ruling from the Attorney
General, or if necessary, the decision
of some court having jurisdiction"

Refuge for Mem Wounded in War.

CHICAGO. October GA plan to
devote the gross receipts Of the next

home for base ball players who have
been wounded in the service Of their
country was outlined today by B. b.
johnson. president of the American
League.

the first world series after the war
would be sufficient to build and equip
the home for the wounded soldiers and
sailors. and proceeds from subsequent
series. so far as necessary. could be
set aside for the maintenance Of the
institution.
IN the establishment, equipment and
maintenance of the proposed home
the government. according to the plan,

the function Of professional base ball
being merely to supply the necessary
