Addressing the House, Feb Ia,

attested by page All Of tho
House journal:
There Is no institution In
tho state Of North Dakota
that could possibly sdvanco
such money, not even the
state itself. It would require
approximately fifty million
dollars to handle these e.
gautic and tremendous en-
terprises. These industries
must be financed I believe
that that Is the reason, gen.

Bank"
He proceeded to name the
means by which money could be
secured for farm 1oans-sa1e Of
state bonds, loans by federal
government, deposits Of public
funds in the bank, including
school funds, and concluded:
Therefore it seems to me
that the greatest reason for
this Bank would be to gath
or these millions IN one place

various industries in which
the State Is about to en-.
gage
That was Mr. 0'Commk

farmers. They said: "Upon tq
rock we will build our plan.~
They did it. Now Mr.. O'Comaor
in his speeches comes forward
blandy and IN a most hwyerl

IN OTHER WORDS, the true purpose of
this amendment Is to destroy, insofar as the
Bank Of North Dakota is concerned, the CON-
tlOENIlAL relations which MUST exist be-
tween the Bank and it's clients. if it is to
function at all.
The thought can be carried clearer by taxi

Tell Premiers Big Army Needed
to Put Down Reyolts.
Forces Allowed by Treaty Not
Enough, Says Note.

Pleads Not Member of League
and Unprotected.
Delegations From Six Peoples
Are Presenting Petitions.

San Reno, April 22.-The Egyptian
nationalist delegation has announced
it would present demands for COM
plete independence to the. council of
premiers.
Six delegations of peoples anxious to
obtain favorable decisions from the
peace conference arrived yesterday.
Representatives of Galicia said they
would ask revision of the treaty of
Versailles to change the decision
granting Poland a twenty-five year
protectorate over part of Galicia.
Montenegrins Want Freedom.
Montenegrins were to ask immedi-
ate discussion of the case of their ma
ton, demanding, that it be restored to
test that partition which set up the
independent Georgian nation.
None of the delegations were given
an audience by the premiers today.
The council of premiers continued
discussion of the territorial clauses of
the treaty of peace with Turkey, de-
filming her European boundaries, and
later resumed discussion of Armenia,
the official statement tonight said.
Early in the session, it was learned,
the council examined again the mill
tary clause of the Turkish treaty,
and approved them. Disposition of
the Caucasus also was discussed.
The German note, asking an army
of 200, 900 instead of 100000 allowed
by the treaty of Versailles, pointed
out that Germany not being a mem
Der of the League of Nations, did not
have the advantage of the league pro-
vision to protect members from ex-
ternal aggression and that Germany
must have an army adequate for her
internal needs.
1t reviewed at length the unsettled
condition in Germany, declaring the
established government must remain
complete master of affairs, with abil-
ity to compel rebels to disarm, if it
was to stand. With an army of 100,
600 the Germans argued the govern
ment could not possibly stand should
the Bolshevist elements start a new
revolution.

REED is CANNED
Missouri Anti-League Senator
Regulated by Democrats.
Party Goes on Record for Pact
"NithOut Reservations"

Joplin, April 2S.-The Democratic
state convention in session here this
morning voted to reject the selection
of United States Senator James A.
Reed, as district delegate to the ma
tional convention and to return his
name to the Fifth district caucus
which nominated him.
The vote was 1910 to 400. 1t came
as the climax to an all night session
OF the convention in which 'wrangling
and filibustering played a prominent
part.
Spirited debate preceded the roll
call. The Fifth district delegation
the st. Louis delegations, with the ex-
ception of two wards, cast their bal
lots against the measure.
The convention early today elected
the following named men delegates at
large to the national convention at
Gardner. Judge w. w. Graves OF JEFF
ferson City; DR.. Burris A. Jenkins,
Kansas City and Judge John 8. Far
rington, Springfield. Charles NJ. Hay,
st. Louis. and w. T. Kemper. Kansas
City, were defeated. Immediately fol-
lowing announcement of the election
of the men the convention took UP the
election of the four women delegates
at large.
Pandemonium greeted the simulta-
neous reports of majority and minor
ity members of the resolutions COM
mittee touching on the League of Ma
tions covenant. the former being an
endorsement without reservations
which tend to weaken or nullify the
pact" while the latter opposed the
league and objected to instructing the
Missouri delegation to the national
convention to vote for a plank in the
national platform endorsing the
league, as recommended by the ajor-
ity report.
Cheers and 5eers kept the conven-
ton in an uproar which Frank Nc
David, Springfield, permanent chair
man, was unable to quell. When a
semblance of order was again OBJ
tanned. the majority report was
adopted.
The convention adjourned sine die
at S:25 O'Clock this morning.

Chicago, April 2S.-CORN-Urgent Euro

GUARD AGAINST PAPER FAMINE.

Spruce Areas.

Washington, April .2s.-Co1. VIII
liam B. Greeley, chief of the United
states forest service, today urged re-
forestation by public agencies and pri-
vate individuals to guard against fu-
ture paper famines.
Public agencies doubtless must as
sumo the greater part of the imme-
date task of growing timber on our
idle, .cut-over land" he said. "But
publicly owned forests cannot do all
of it in the United States. Our ma
tional policy should aim definitely
and unequivocally at the practice of
forestry by private owners"
