BY Bank Board

st, Paul, Mimi. Oct. 3.-Oliver s,
Morris, editor of the Nonpartisan n n
Leader Of st. Paul. official organ of
the National Nonpartisan league, is
sued a statement here today regard
ing the closing of the Scandinavian
american bank of Fargo yesterday,
in which he says:
Officers of the bank state they ex-
pect to start proceedings against the
state on1cials on the grounds of con-
splracy to wreck the bank for DO
litical purposes"
Morris Statement.
Mr.. Morris in his statement saws:
The Scandinavian American bank
has been meeting all it's obligations in
the course of regular business with
out even suspicion of unsoundness,
But Attorney General William LANCER
and Secretary of State Thomas Hall,
who constitute majority of the
banking board of North Dakota, are
enemies of the Nonpartisan league,
formed the plot to close the Scandi-
navlan-American bank some weeks
ago. ,,
They sent State Bank Examiner
Q. e" LOTUS to Florida, supposedly to
investigate company which desired
to sell stock in North Dakota In his
absence they secured an order from
LOTUS Office permitting one of the
deputy bank examiners to investigate
q trust company at Fargo. They had
the deputy bank examiner, an assist
ant to Mr.. LANCER, make a hurried
examination of the accounts of the
Scandinavian-Ameri bank. A re-
port was hastily drawn up and read
at the banking board meeting We'd
nesday.
The report alleged that the bank
was making loans to individual bor-
rowers in excess of the limit allowed
by law. The character of the paper
and security in the bank was not ques-
