R%EDEPOSITS FABLE

There have been a lot Of tales told
regarding the redeposits Of public
funds in private banks by the Bank
of North Dakota. To hear Judge
Young's boys tell it, Director General
Cathro just went out and deposited
funds wholesale in banks without try
ing any reasonable precautions, and
this according to the I. v. A. poison
Squad, proves the Director General a
poor banker. The truth is that when
Mr.. Cathro took the management Of
the Bank he found the public funds
already "frozen" in many of these
private banks so tightly that he could
never get them out, hence he had no
option but to leave them there hoping
to gradually liquidate the same and
he would have succeeded doing so and
giving North Dakota the best credit
distributing system in the country
had not the passag eof the |. Y. A.
Initiated laws ~disarranged his plans.
It was the passage of these laws in

All through the hot forenoon Lieu
tenant Richards had fought like q
leader Of heroes, Drawing death q
dozen times from the spitefui Fill
pino bullets that Kissed overhead;
yet, though man after man had failen
In the thinning ranks he was un-
scathed. And the more he sought
death the harder it seemed to die.
With a mere handful Of the seventy
nine Who had been cut or from the
main forces by the cunningly con-
trived ambuscade, Richards had fall
len back upon q hill, n Of those
smooth, isolated hills that emerge
here and there in the northern region
of Luzon. There, hard pressed, the
little remnant Of Squadron B were
holding their own against the enemy's
marksmen. waiting for the arrival Of
the relief column from Santa Cata-
lima. It was strange how it seemed
to Richards as he lay on his face In
the b~listering sunlight. His mind went
travelling back to other scenes, other
days-to that last day In Washington
before he sailed away.
Ha had sat all the cool afternoon
with Lucy Greaves on the porch Of
the club house. Lucy was an old
sweetheart Of his b0yhood.
On that last afternoon he had asked
her to be his wife, to wait for him.
Then Lucy, whom he had never seen
discomposed, broke. down and sobbed
In his arms. She was engaged to a
fellow soldier, whom she loved, no
longer. But the traditions Of her
family forbade her to break with him.
She did not tell him the name. But
Richards had imagined that it was
some officer he knew.
The memories vanished with the
sudden cessation Of the Kissing above
them. Richards knew what that
meant. The enemy was preparing to
charge. They came upward, and,
finding that the defenders made no
reply, swooped in with a zest, flags
flying, keen, razor-edged bolos fash
ing back the light of the declining sun.
Next moment It was hand to hand.
For a full minute-hours, 1t seemed
the fighting was fierce. Then the
attackers were s~ullenly retiring and
the besieged drew a little closer to-

Gently passed an Act taking contracts
for the sale of grain for future deliv-
cries, and options for such contracts
Grading in futures and providing
for the regulation Of Boards Of Trade
and other purposes. This is the Anti
Grain Gambling Law for which the
farmers have long waited and worked.
The bill was amended on the floor of
the house to provide that certain
boards Of trade, to be designated by
the Secretary Of the Treasury, should
be exempt from the tax Of zoe a BUSH
81 placed upon future trading; and
that such boards should admit "any
duly authorized executive officer of
any lawfully formed and conducted
cooperative association of producers
having adequate financial responsible
ity:" and that such cooperative assoc
Citations must conform to all rules and
regulations of such board.
Obviously the, big city boards of
trade should not be permitted to shut
out farmers cooperative marketing

ducts, as they have done all too often
in the past. But the proposed amend
ment compelling the admission of
farmers cooperative marketing asso-
Citations contains a couple Of "jokers'
which makes it's value to these asso-
Citations very doubtful. What does
adequate financial responsibility
mean?" and why permit the farmers
enemies to control most if not all the
boards of trade, to hamstring the CO.
operatives by compelling them to con-
form to all rules and regulations Of
such board. The Anti Grain Gamb-
ling bill known as the Tincher Capper
Bill is now before the Senate Commit
tee on agriculture. The decision Of the
committee will soon be made. It is
not too late to write or wire your SEN

tL ~ EI EI- h-E# Nay -EL EE E&
"We want to wind up the affairs Of
the Bank Of North Dakota and have a
real rural credits bank like the one in
South Dakota say the /. v. A. bosses.
Now it happens that South Dakota
has nc such bank. This may surprise
you but nonetheless it is true. There
is no such bank in s. D. all they have
is a sort Of state operated borrowing
Board, that helps the farmers to get
into debt, this may suit the I. v. A.
bosses bat it doesn't suit the League
for the idea back Of the bank Of North

/. ". a. AMENDMENTS

In the Recall the I. ". IA. bosses
are scheming two ways to get the
farmers goat-first they have nom-
mated three nice noisemakers for the
Industrial Commission, and second
they have initiated certain amend
ments to the constitution to limit the
states Indebtedness. This is exactly
the same trick al last election, by us
ing it, they failed in electing their in
dustrial commission, they did put thru
their initiated laws, and these laws
enable them to badly cripple the in
dustrial program. Don't let them fool
you this time farmers, and workers,
play safe,-Vote No Along the Line.
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1921-07-07
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT

The /. V. A. bosses have filed with
the secretary Of state the petitions
proposing a constitutional amendment
aimed to kill the state industrial pro-
gram, voted for in six elections and
ratified by the people in the seventh
by q direct vote on the measures that
constitute the program.
Probably not M person in one
thousand who signed the petition
knows the complete content of the
proposed constitutional amendment.
The ordinary layman, reading it's title
casually, would take it as a measure
designed to promote the industrial
program.
That is the way the old gang al
ways draws it's laws.
Reading down into the body we find
the proposed amendment provides for
the dissolution Of the Bank of North
Dakota"
In other words the l. V. A. bosses
seek to get rid of the greatest bank
in the nation, simply because it pro-
tects the public funds from their graft
grabbing hands; because by COMPETE
ton it has reduced and will continue
to reduce interest rates on farm
loans; because the Wall Street kings,
who fear that the Bank of North Da-
kota idea will spread to every state
in the union, have ordered that an at
tempt be made to kill it.
X
Another provision Of the proposed
constitutional amendment calls for a
bond issue to "wind up the affairs of
the Home Building Association"
This means that the I. V. A. bosses
intend to take from the people of the
state the opportunity to become home
owners; securing their homes at from
80 to so per cent below the cost of
building by private builders and at
terms within the reach of every wage
Garner, not to mention the absolute
security against foreclosure.
Then we have the great mill and
elevator, now t%wo-thirds completed,
standing at Grand Forks.
Authorities are unanimous that a
business institution without capital on
which to do business is doomed to
failure before it starts operation.
Yet this is exactly what the l. v. A.
bosses intend to do to the North Da-
kota state-owned mill and elevator.
They dare not oppose the idea, so
they plan to make it fail by cutting
down the bond issue to finance the
plant from $5,OOO,O00 to $4,000, 900.
These are the bare outlines of what
is intended by the constitutional
amendment the |. V A.. bosses propose
shall be voted on at the recall election
to be held ION or before Nov. s.
