THE DECISIVE BATTLE

pei ate stand, in the country at lar.
&c, in the Northwest and in North
Dakota. In the Congress of the
United States and in the federal
courts it is attacking by every pos.
sible means all law that have passed
for the purpose of Enchanting Ameri-
can industry. The federal farm loan
system is attacked, and the suit
against it is now pending in the Su-
preme Court of the United States;
bills have been introduced in Cong
ress aiming at the destruction of the
federal joint stock and banks; Sena-
tors and Representatives. tools Of the
farm mortgage m%onopolies, have
bnasted that they will Knockout"
the tax free provisions in the federal
farm loan act; and, the most serious
nf all, the laws enacting the North
Dakota Industrial Program have been
attacked both in the state and the
federal courts, the last decisive suit
being now before the Supreme Court.
So far as it's control owe che far.
mer and his products liz concerned
Big Business knows that it is going
to lose. The only question is: How
The interests that have grown fat
out of the toll of the farmers of
this country know that the entire
system is going to be Thoroughly re-
organized. They know that farm
marketing and farm credits are going
to be operated as a public service
because. they know that this will
have to be done, in order to assure
the food ,upply of the Nation aud
to save the people from starvation
The entire campaign Of Big Business
will 500 be changed. Their purpose
will be to hold the present system in
existence long enough to enable them
to direct the reorganization which
they know cannot be prevented.
If Big Business finds that it is not
able to retain direct control of the
these key industries- credit. markets
and transportation-and that the PEG
pie insist upon state or government
ownership, then its next move will
be to perfect it's control of the state
or federal governments, and through
the governments to retain practically
the same power over production as it
now holds. But Big Business cannot
accomplish either Of these results. if
the farmers and other workers organ
ize and consolidate their power, il
government and in industrial organ
ization. AS the situation now stands
it is a question of who gets there
first. The issue is not between con-
tinued private operation of those in
dustrial facilities upon which all in
dustry depends. and public Ownership
but a question as to who will control

The movement towards govern
ment ownership and operation of
these necessary facilities has not
yet taken definite shape anywhere in
the country, except in North Dakota
Therefore, North Dakota is the lead
er in the fight for real and effective
government ownership, by virtue of
the fact that she had the courage and
the initiative to make the first move,
There are, it is true, already in ex-
istence public services similar to the
North Dakota state industries-as in

Than Even Chance,
His Physician Says

Speak Few Words; Dura-
ton of Coma Sets Record

There was no appreciable change in
the condition Of John G. 5iavin, the
actor, at ST. Luke's Hospital yesterday
DR.. Austin w. Hollis. a specialist,
after an examination, said: II should
say he now appears to have better than
an even chance Of recovery"
Slavin's mind has not fully cleared
and he has not been conscious for any
length of time since he was picked up
in front Of the home of John J. Nc
Graw, manager of the Giants, on Sun

skull remained in coma more than
eight days and lived.
