IS STAR,
 BUT MAY BE IN TRADE FOR NUTTER
By GEORGE E. FTRSTBROOK.

Local baseball circles are interested in the runor that is going the rounds to the effect that Gene Martin, star Brown Derby outfielder, is to be trad ed to the New Haven club, for Ever cit "Joe Nutter. Of course, Gene Me Cam denies the probability of such deal but the story comes from au- thoriative sources in the Elm City.
 Why Gene Martin should be traded off to our millionaire pennant rival is a mystery, as the Bronx boy is playing a gilt-edged brand of baseball just now. Of course he is making errors. all star players make them
 Some of the weak-kneed sports who have enjoyed seeing the Brown Derfbies in the lead for 45 days and nights, and slime of those who travel into Newf1eld Park via the Annie Oak ley route, should be elected stockhold- CTS Of the Bridgeport Baseball club and have their war tax 7emitted. They are the guys who are ho1Iering about Gene Martin 't1aying down.

CATHRO SAYS BONDS
FOR SALE BY STATE
HAVE GOOD BACKING
(By STAFF Correspondent.

Bismarck. N. D., Jan. 31.-T. w.
Cathro, manager of the Bank Of
North Dakota, has issued the follow
ing statement relative to the bonds
which the state is now cndeavoring
to dispose of:
We are undertaking to borrow &c.
100000 to promote various activities
Dakota has a farm acreage Of 1885,
800 acres 30 we are borrowing a trifle
over 20 cents per acre as to farm
lands. .
We have s3,0oo,o 900, 900 Of property
in North Dakota aside from our six
billion tons OF coal, and vast clay de-
posits VIC are undertaking to borrow
about one dollar for every $500 we
are worth.
We raised in 1920, .225, coo, 900
worth of field crops and mixed prod
ucts; we are undertaking to borrow
about 1877 of the years products.
We have in the state of North Da-
kota $~60,444,403 worth Of property
belonging to the state. consisting of
permanent funds, state lands, state
educational buildings, state capitol,
and charitable and penal institution
buildings. sinking funds. and general
funds on hand as of July 1, 1920; our

The Obligations of the state in
bonds outstanding are $4,000 over
and above the amount OF those issues
that are now being offered for sale,
and there are sinking funds in the
amount OF $40S,151.37.

resources and its productiveness and
the small pro-rata cost OF the enter
prises as compared with the resources
of the state and the vast amount of
good that may be accomplished
through the carrying through Of to
the ultimate fuifillment of the uieas-
ures to be supported by these several
bond issues every citizen. and taxpay-
Ter in the state should be whole
heartedly behind these bond issues.
Nothing has rtranspired in North Da-
kota to cause any alarm or to en-
tgender any meritorious opposition to
these bond issues. The state is funda-
mentally sound. Bank assets
throughout the state for the most part
represent sound values. When banks
have become temporarily embarrassed
it is not, IN the main on account Of
poor assets, but for the reason that,
on account Of farmers holding their
wheat for better prices payments on
notes and deposits of new funds have
not kept pace with ordinary with
drawals. The sale OF these bonds in
the near future will i~mmeasurably re-
lievc the situation.
1.-The cooperation OF the people of
North Dakota is solicited to the end
thai the state may retain It's high f.
nancial standing, and that the in
