Washington. May 11.-Deportation of
radicals to Russia has been held up be-
cause of political and military develop
ments in Odessa and because of inabil-
ity TO obtain transportation direct to
that port.
Department of labor officials made
this announcement Tuesday after Chair
man johnson of the house immigration
comittee had told the house that a
second deportation of radical aliens.
planned for next Saturday, had been
cancelled because authorities at Con
stsntinople had refused transfer there
for Odessa.
Labor department officials said no
transfer at Constantinople had been
planned and that necessary transfer
at Piraeus, Greece. was not considered
advisable.
Deportation of radicals to other Euro
pean countries, the department announe-
ed. is going forward steadily through the
agency of commercial liners.

President Wilson and his cabinet Tues

That the bank has not been properly
run in some respects is strongly sus-
pected. That it has deposited much
North Dakota money in the eastern
centers, at lower interest rate than
is paid by North Dakota banks, is
shown by the testimony OF Director
Cathro in the Brinton libel case.
Three laws regarding the bank have
been initiated, and will be voted on at
the November election. They should
be considered on their merits. One
provides for an examination of the
bank by board of auditors. Exam
ination by the state examiner is pro-
vided for in the law as it now stands,
but there is a suspicion that the ex-
aminer is too strongly allied with the
same interests that manage the bank
to have such examination satisfactory.
Of course, no matter how honest the
examiner, in order to be impartial and
get satisfactory results he must not
be connected with the interests he is
'tc examine. This is simply human
nature. Other banks are examined
by the state examiner, but the state
is not the manager Of the other banks.
Another initiated law provides that
township, county, school and village
boards may handle their own funds
through local banks, if they wish, in
stead of depositing them in the state
bank. That leaves the local author
tiles free to determine what their own
best interests require. If they can
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1920-09-30

dc better for their people at home
they have the chance to do so.
The third initiated law forbids the
bank to loan money on real estate
mortgages to farmers who do not live
in the state. It would seem to US
that this proposition needs no argu.
ment. The bank was established for
the benefit of our own people, not OF
outsiders. At first blush you mirht
ask, Is such a law necessary? Can
it be that the bank officials have loan
ed North Dakota money to non resi-
dents, when there are Thousands OF
our own farmers wanting loans? I'm
fortunately, it is said that q search
Of the mortgage. records shows pre-
cisely this thing.
1t seems to US that the passage of
these initiated laws would make more
certain the usefulness of the bank
to the people Of the state, without in
any substantial way tying its hands
for the good work that has to do. If
the complaints that have been made
are true, these laws are necessary. If
the complaints are not true, the pro-
posed laws will do no harm. We an
preciate at it's full force the feeling
that no stumbling block should be
placed in the way of the bank, but
reasonable business restrictions are
not stumbling blocks to those who
want to conduct their business fairly:
We hope these laws will be carried at
the election.
