MOSCOW (by wireless to Berlin),
Dec. 31.-Nicolai Lenin In a two
hour speech before the all-Russian
Soviet congress today outlined a
great program of reconstruction and
presented strong Arguments In favor
of his policy Of gsnting concessions
to foreign capitalists.

for war, got an ovation that lasted
for some minutes. This demonstra-
ton was repeated when Lenine ar
rived.
Lenine advanced many suggestions
for the rehabilitation Of the country.
While speaking of concessions he
made the following interesting point
regarding the peasants:
SUSPICION AROUSED.
1.-THE question of concessions has
aroused suspicion in the minds of
some people throughout the country,
who are prone to consider such
action equivalent to selling Russia to
foreigners. Peasants who come here
to Moscow said they would be will
ing to suffer another three years
rather than see their mother coun-
try-Russia-sold.T This feeling shows
a high degree Of national self-con-
seriousness and Is very good sign
that we can and will keep ample
control of these concessions. But we
cannot do without these concessions.
We must have machinery"
Speaking Of the transportation in
dustry, during which he referred to
fuel as 1.-THE bread OF industry"
Lenine said:
''As we found it necessary to get
bread for our soldiers we must ALEC
get fuel for our factories" He went
on to explain his plan to utilize
peet and for the electrification Of
Russia The plants and wiring sys-
tenn will cost $1,000 100000. which
IL to be distributed over ten years.
Lenine said that Russia could not
afford to spend more than 10000
COO, but hoped to get the rest from
concessions.

FIGHT sow TH1sTLEs.

That perennial. sow thistle, which
has gained such foothold in the
northeastern part of the state, may
appear in any part of North Dakota
is evidenced by the fact that
small patch has been found in the
northern part of Emmons county,
in the south central part of the
state. County Agent H. o. Sauer
is making an examination of the
county for other patches, and Wig
orous steps are being taken to stamp
out this patch before it spreads.
Meetings have been held in Grand
Forks, Nelson and Ramsey scoun-
ties at which sow thistle control
methods have been discussed and or
ganizations perfected for directing
an eradication campaign. In Mel
son county few township weed
supervisors have been appointed,
and in Ramsey county the County
Board has been requested to ap-
point a supervisor in every. town.
ship. Community campaigns will
be carried on in Grand Forks coun-
ty as the result of joint meeting
of the Farm Bureau, county board,
township supervisors, and other in
terested farmers.

According to a dispatch from Bis
marck the other day The Bank Of
North Dakota, which is the GUS
todian of all the funds Of the state
has made a loan Of one million
dollars at seven per cent from par
ties in the Twin Cities to keep busi-
ness going. With the millions of
dollars of school funds on hand and
in securities when they took charge
of the state government, and the
county, township and other funds,
which can be transferred from one
fund to the other through special
legislation it seems to us that things
are not handled right. But the
Townley political machine measur-
es everything in the millions, and
these millions always seems to be
either in borrowing OF bonding.
The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1920-07-30

No one will deny that if the pos
tai service is to meet with the re.
quirements of the country, it is alb
solutely necessary that fair compen-
sation be given to the nations faith
full employees in this service. The
last congress made a start in the
right direction by slightly raising
tho salaries of the postal workers
but this should not be accepted as
the last word of congress on the
subject. Under the circumstances
attending the vote on the report
Of the postal commission, it was
not possible to. present amendments
but it is to be hoped that the next
congress will see its way clear to
do justice to the workers in this
all-important branch Of the federal
service.

According to official news from
Europe this week there are ten
wars raging in different parts Of
the eastern hemisphere. Wilson's
league of nations, that has been
the bone Of contention in congress

make us party to these wars and
we would be linked with them if

do to take care of our own affairs

we'd as member Of the legislature
two years ago as a -Nonpartisan,

them. Mr.. Helmquist is one Of the
prominent farmers of western Kitt-
