The people Of North Dakota have
been fighting brave and wonderful
battle for democracy and social JUS
tice.
And they have been winning the
fight.
They have won in every election
in recent years; they have won every
case against them in the courts; and
they have won in the hearts of the
people.
Their victories are substantial. To-
day. they have their state owned
bank-The Bank of North Dakota,
their state owned mill and elevators,
their state hail insurance, their State
Home Building Association and the
best labor legislation in America.
The peoples state bank of North
Dakota, is the very foundation and
cornerstone of their program. 1t has
reduced the interest rate by two per
cent. It is rapidly shouldering off the
where the people are carrying $780,
heavy interest burdens Of a state
where the people are carrying $780,
600, 900 of farm loans. 1t has helped
to finance the state mill and elevator
that is paying the farmer IL cents
bushel more for his wheat and selling
the flour at SO cents barrel less than
the private concerns; it has helped to
finance the state hail insurance that
saved the farmers $5,400,OOO last
year; it has extended the operation
of the public school system and help
ed in many other measures of social
progress.
Thoroughly Established and Secure
Then Bank of North Dakota is to-
