"Reprisals" have been decided upon
=, tho RANK of North Dakota

"Reprisals" have been decided upon
by the Bank Of North Dakota.
The bank, in circular to treasurers
and governing boards of public cor
porations, says it will open the bank
to individual depositors after Decem-
Der LIST.
This action is taken, it is stated in
the circular, because the enactment.of
the initiated law "places the Bank Of
North Dakota where it now must to
some eytent enter the competitive
field with state and national banks
Of the state"
Facing the loss of millions of dol
lars Of public deposits under the mi
tiated law permitting withdrawal of
deposits, the bank is out to get indi-
vidual deposits.
The threat that this action would be
taken was issued some time ago by
the bank. The announcement did not
create any surprise or CONSERVATION
in banking circles.
Bankers Not Alarmed
The bank cannot be expected to
Draw great amount of money from
individual depositors, in the view OF
many bankers.
F. E. Packard, assistant attorney
general, has declared that under ex-
listing laws deposits in the Bank of
North Dakota cannot be guaranteed
by the state. All other state bank
deposits are guaranteed. Bank Of
ficials declare there is no basis for
this theory. x
F. w. Cathro, director-general of the
bank, refused to predict how much
money might flow into the bank, It
would be matter of growth, he said.
The November Is statement of the
bank lists as individual deposits of
the bank 1914, 926.33. Mr.. Cathro said
this was money from labor unions

BANK OF N. DAKOTA PREPARES
TO TAKE INDIVIDUAL DEPOSITS

outside the state. He denied the
bank had been receiving deposits OF
individuals within the state.
The following circular letter was
sent out by the bank concerning the
interest rates to be paid beginning
With December /:
"To Treasurers and Governing
! Board of Public Corporations: The
enactment of the recently initiated
law places the Bank of North Dako-
ia where it now must to some ex-
tent enter the competitive field with
the state and national banks in the
state.
Heretofore the bank has placed
money with state and national banks
at rates of interest at which such
banks could afford to reloan in then
several communities at profit. The
bank has charged a per cent on its
redeposits in banks and 6 per cent
on it's rediscounts from banks 1t
appears now that the Bank of North
! Dakota must enlarge it's activities,
and that it is no longer bound to
limits it's redeposits to per cent, nor
it's rediscounts to 6 per cent and for
that reason it is in position to in
crease it's interest rates on deposits.
Furthermore it appears that the
operations of the bank, as to interest
rates paid during it's experimental
year, did not satisfy the group in con:
troll of the bankers association and
there appears to be demand for
the bank to pay larger rate Of IN
terest, now that it is entering upon
the second year Of it's operation.
"For these reasons the Bank of
North Dakota has rearranged it's in
terest rates, and beginning December
l, 1920, will pay the following rates
per annum, computed quarterly for
the actual number of days and cred

Additional Editorial

If you have denied yourself some
luxuries during the days Of high
prices, you have perhaps been able to
put away few dollars in the bank
for a rainy day. If instead you have
spent your money for automobiles and
other things that you could have got
ten along without, you may find your
self now in position where YOU will
wish that you had bought War Saw
ings Stamps instead. The dollar Is
getting bigger every day 1t will buy
a good deal more than it could few
months ago and it will continue to get
bigger right along until we get back
to the pre-war basis Of 1914. It is
considerable satisfaction to feel that
you have a few dollars sailed away
20 that you can watch them grow
bigger.

CONTROVERSY
IN LABOR RANKS
CAUSES SSTR|KES

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.--Ninety-
five percent OF the strikes and IS
percent of the days Of idleness In
the building trades In the past have
occurred through what is known as
snowballing" or controversies be-
tween wage-earners themselves as to
which trade should do the work, says
Franklin T. Miller, president of the
F w. Dodge company and formerly
Director Of the Division OF Public
Works and Construction Of the Unit
ed States Department of Labor. Only
5 per cent. he declares, have been on
questions between employer, and en-
ploye.
Mr.. Miller, who has been in touch
with the construction industry in
this country for 25 years, cited the
case OF big Chicago hotel costing
millions, the work on which had been
delayed. he said, more than year
because of a disagreement between
skilled workers as to who should
handle certain doors because of the
preponderance of metal over wood.
This he,said was an inevitable conse-
quence Of the rapid development OF
the. industry. Aualyzing the situation
and the building outlook for 1920,
Mr.. Miller said:
"The creation of Board of Juris-
dictionaI Award by the United States
Department of Labor, board COM
posed of architects, engineers, con-
tractors, material men and wage
earners, promises solution of one
of the most difficult labor problems
in the building industry. AS result
of 1t decreased cost of construction
may be expected. The Board OF Jur-
isdictional Award has been formulat-
ed with the full approval of all in
terests concerned, who seem to have
entered into 1t without reservation.
'sThe labor outlook in the building
industry thus promises condition OF
greater stability during the coming
year because of the organized deal
ings between employers and employ
es, with full recognition Of the term
contract and arbitration principles. y
"The first serious labor troubles
ir the building industry" said Mr..
Miller. in reviewing the national con-
stfuction shortage. occurred In the
latter part Of October 1918, through
strike of carpenters ON government
work in Brooklyn In violation of the
Baker-G G6mpers agreement, a pact be-
tween the War Department and the
American Federation of Labor. This
strike was settled by compromise
early in March 1919, but in the
meantime 1t threatened a sympath-
etic nationwide strike Of the build
Ing trades and held up construction,
not only In New York but made It
uncertain throughout the land. 9th
or labor troubles sprang up through
out the country. notably In Chicago.
