NtGAARO IN CHARGE
OF COLUMBUS BANK

The Security State Bank at Co.
lumbus voluntarily closed it's doors
last week after it's reserve fund Went
down to below the amount required
by law, and a bank examiner was
sent for to check up the assets and
liabilities of the institution. Ev-
ervthing was found by the examiner
to be in the very best of condition,
with the exception of the fact that
owing to the fagmers holding their
grain for higher prices and refusing
to pay their Indebtedness to the
bank, the reserve .und went down
tU-tSlow the amount required by
law. The examiner appointed Loui
Negaard, president of the bank, as
deputy. and put him in charge OF
the institution until such time az
he can make enough collections to-
build up his reserve fund, when he
will again be allowed to open the
bank. There is total of fifteen
banks in the sta te that were COM
relled to close their doors during
the past two weeks, most Of them
for the same reason that caused
Mr.. Negaard to close, and it is ex-
pected that most Of them will open
again in a few weeks. The bank
at Columbus is the only bank in
Burke county that was compelled
to close, and a.s all the other banks
here are in the best of financial coA-
dition, there is every reason to be-
Iieve that there will be no others.

Slate Guarantee Of Bank
Deposits in North Dakota

The present money str1ngency
has demonstrated as nothing else
could the value of the Guarantee
Fund Law passed by the 1917 ses-
sion of the legislature by which the
state of North Dakota guarantees
the payment of all deposits in state
banks.
1t is being generally conceded
by the bankers Of the state at this
time that If this law had not been
in force a real panic in this state
could not have been averted during
the present period Of tight money"
Still all attempts of, the people tc
secure the enactment Of this just
and wise law had the active ~oppo-
sition of nearly all bankers up, to
, the time that it was enacted and put
into operation during Governor
Frazier'g first administration.
THE most valuable asset of any
bank is confidence Of the communi-
ty it serves. Before the Guarantee
! Law was in force that confidence
rested entirely upon the personality
and wealth Of the men directing
banks affairs, and as experience
has shown sometimes that confl-
: dence was misplaced. People would
lose confidence in the banks during
periods of depression or tight
money! Many would Withdraw
their deposits, thus agravating and
making the situation more serious.
Because the state of North Dako-
ta% guarantees that depositors in
slate banks will be paid in full in
case the bank fai;s, depositors have
not become panic stricken and con-
seauently have not withdrawn their
funds as would have been the case
If this law was not in force.
The Guaranty Fund, Law pro-
yides: For the creation of a COM
mission Of five members, viz: the
governor OF the state of North Da-
kota, the state examiner and three
members appointed by the governor
from banker residents OF the state
whose banks are enected by the
law. 1t provides for making as
rssments Of one-twentieth of one
per cent of the average daily depo-
sits OF such banks as come within
the provision of the law. provides
that such asse ecsments shall be made
annually until the. total amount in
the fund shall reach one per cent
OF the average daily deposits. 1t
authorizes the commission to make
up to four assessments in case Of
necessity in any year. This law
provides that banks coming under
the provisions OF this act shall not
be required to give any further
surety or bond for the purpose OF
becoming depository of public
funds. All deposits both public
and private. are guaranteed by the
state in banks coming under the
The Bowbells tribune. [volume] (Bowbells, Ward Co., N.D.) 1899-1969, 1920-12-03

provisions OF the act.
The law also defines Banks"
coming under the provisions of this
act as: ANY bank. trust COM
pany. building or loan associations
CIR other corporation who accepted
deposits s''-except national banks.
The state does not guarantee the
payment OF deposits in national
banks. National banks could not
be compelled to submit to state ex-
animation. However, natio a
banks may by submitting to state
examination and paying the re-
quired assessments into the Guar
anty Fund have their deposits guar
anteed Dy the state.
The state laws require all GUS
t"dians of public funds to require
q bond from national banks who
do not come under the Guaranty
Fund, before any public funds are
deposited with them. The state
laws do not require that private de-
positors of their own funds de-
mand of national banks bond to
guarantee the safe:y Of their de-
posits. but prudence would dictate
in times like these, that depositors
in national banks demand such a
guarantee or else deposit their
money in a state bank where their
deposits are guaranteed by the
state. =
The attitude of the Federal Re-
serve Board in CHASING farmers,
who hold their wheat in an effort
to obtain some where near the cost
OF its production, as "speculators'
has not operated TO increase conf
dence in banks who are members
of the federal reserve system. At
a conference held in Washington Ii.
October, representatives of various
agricultural districts Of the country,
cotton growers of the south, wheat
and cattle raisers of the northwest
and southwest. meeting with the
Federal Reserve Board were told
that they would not receive extern
sion Of credit to hold their products
for higher prices. It was made
plain that this Federal Reserve
Board considered the farmers Of the
country as "speculators" and that
the grain exchanges and dealers in
farm products, are the only ones
connected with Agricultural indus
try entitled to financial accomoda-
tions from the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn. - .&Et
: And now it is reported that the
Federal Reserve Banks will not ac-
cept farm paper as collateral secur-
ity or for rediscount. Such all at
titude. it would seem, would put
banks in the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn in o very weak position, es-
peciallv in a state like North DikO-
ia where all security is practically
backed by the value of farm pro-
ducts 80.

GRAIN GROWERS OK.
GAN|zE IN BURKE co.

About 200 farmers from all parts
of Burke county attended Il meet
ing at the court room at the court
house in this city on Friday after
noon of last week for the purpose
of organizing branch of Grain
Growers Of America. an institution
made W OF farmers in all the wheat
growing states, who are getting to-
gelher to solve the problem Of hold
ing wheat until they at least get
the price it cost them to produce it.
No plan has yet been adopted, and
the organizer who delivered a talk
advised the farmers to sell this
years crop at present prices and
pay up their Indebtedness as far as
it would go. His plan was to get
fully organized in order to be able
to held grain if necessary next fall,
and between now and that time de-
wise some means of financing the
farmers so they would not be forced
to sell at half Of what it cost them
to produce the grain. II. was his
plan to organize much OH the same
order as the fruit growers a3socia-
tion is organized in the west, and
sell nothing except at prices set by
the association "All we want is a
price that will provide the cost OF
production plus fair profit lie
declared land we are not getting
that now. Unless we take some
concerted action at once we will
never get it. Everything we buy
is at the other mans price. Now
we are going to sell our wheat to
the other fellow at our price"
The present plan is to organize
locals at every shipping point in the
wheat growing section Of the Unit
ed States G. l.. christensen was
elected president of the Burke coun-
ty organization, and Howard Bird
as secretary. Both gentlemen live
near F'laxtOn. John Bryan and,
Geo. White of Bowbells were elect
ed delegates from Burke county 10
attend state meeting held on Tues
day OF this week. Mr.. Bryan was
also elected organizer, and it will be
his duty to organize locals at all
shir"ing points in the county De-
tween now and spring. Thirty
Burke county farmers joined the as
sociation here.

The most notable recent attempt
at countrywide cooperative enter
prise to be made by the farmers of
Burke county is the purchase of
this newspaper. We started a
newspaper because to successfully
co-operate in other things it is ne
cessary for us to have medium of
expression.
AS has been stated before it is
the purpose of this paper to pro-
mote the best interest of all the peo-
pie of the county. Its directors
and stockholders wish it to be an in
strument of mutual benefit to all
falling under its influence.
1t is well recognized, fact that
we must look to greater, more sys-
tematic cooperation among farmers
If we are to solve the problem that
confronts those engaged in agricul-.
ture. The way to learn to success
fully cooperate with each other is
to practice cooperation, by taking
an active part and interest in CO.
onerative efforts and enterprises.
The farmers of Burke county
have always been in sympathy with
co-oDerative endeavor and for. the
most part their efforts have been
quite successful.
We have one of the lcrgest and
most successful mutual fire insur-
ance companies in the state, have
some mutual telephone companies,
several farmers elevator companies
and farmers clubs organized for
buying Supplies anu selling farm
products. These various co-opera

LADD STUDIES MAR:
KET|hG IN CANADA

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 2.-Dr. L. F.
Ladd, president Of the North Da-
kota agricultural college and mem
ber of the American Farm Bureau
Federation Committee of II, has
gone to- Winnipeg and other points
in Canada to study the grain mar
keting system useo there News
dispatches have announced that the
Canadian government is considering
a grain pool to hadle the crop next
year and DR.. Ladd will give this
phase of the situation thoro study
and report to the committee.
The Canadian farmers for the
past three years have practically
controlled the primary wheat mar
kets but the terminals are still con,
trolled by the international grain
combine. The farmers of Canada
have come to realize that 1t Is not
enough to own and control the local
elevators but that in order to de-
fend themselves against gambler
manipulation and the domination OF
the grain combine 1t Is necessary to
control the whole marketing system.
The committee Of II is studying
the cooperative grain marketing
systems in use in every country IN
the world and hopes from tbs in
yestigati0n to be able to evolve a
system for the farmers Of the Unit
ed States that will replace the var
ious chambers Of commerce and
boards OF trade as far as control OF
the grain and livestock marke. is
concerned. Dr.. Ladd is optimistic
over the prospects for success Of
the committees plan.
