Farmers Of North Dakota must
vote for the l. v. A. or be closed out.
This is the ultimatum of the bank
ers, delivered thru their Fargo Or
gan. Here it is, as 1t appeared on
the front page of yesterdays paper,
supposedly as the statement of zone

Here is the situation." said one

they'll get credit; if they don't they'll
be closed ont. That's the bankers
ultimatum.
But its lie that North Dakota
can't get credit. The Bank of North
Dakota is selling state bonds. in
spit of the bankers attempted boy
colt. And the Bank of North Dakota
can make farm loans in large num-
bers thruout the next year.
And the bankers can get War FL
nance corporation funds to carry
farmers paper. They don't need to
close out farmers. Congress passed
the amendment to the War France
corporation act expressly for the
purpose Of saving farmers from be-
ing closed out. And that money
comes to North Dakota just as it does
to other states.
So bankers don't need to clOSe OUT
farmers. Where they do so. it's be-
cause of their political venom. It's a
sign they are determined to rule or
ruin. It's sign they care more for
their pound of flesh than they do
for the future prosperity of the
state.
But who, in the face of such i'm
pudent arrogance on the part of the
bankers. would deny that we need a
new credit system?
Who would seriously maintain
that we have democracy left, when
farmers must carry out the political
orders of bankers or be ruined?

Recreation Center Heartily
Welcomed by City Youths
sIssEION SCHOOLS PRAISED BY
VISITORS; SAID no BE ONE
OF BEST IN STATE

In commenting on the Sisseton
school, words of highest praise were
spoken by the noted visitors who ad-
dressed the Institute several weeks
ago. Mr.. Lawrence, who vas in
charge opined that the Sisseton sch
is as wsll equipped and managed as
u any School OF any city with a rsp-
ulatton several times the size of Sis
seton. And he is in position where
he can make comparisons with auth
ority.
That our school is we'll worthy of
this liberal praise is proved by the
activities in which it engages. Supt.
o. K. Thol1ehaug has broadened the
scope of school interest Bent upon
eclipsing the splendid work of last
year, he has introduced numerous
innovations that are certain to make
the school more vital influence in
the life of the child and the citizen
of Sisseton.
The child's recreation does much to
mold it's character. Hanging around
the streets at night is frought with
serious menace. Accordingly. Mr..
Thollehaug has decided to open Il
recreation center. where children
may. under proper supervision. play
checkers, chess and other games
that are pleasurable and beneficial.
The recreation center is not an ex-
pertinent. 1t has been tried in the
largest cities of America and has
invariably proven an unquestionable
success. Wednesday evening, at the
initial opening of the recreation cen
ter there were nearly one hundred
boys, playing gams and patiently
waiting their turn to obtain game.
In this group could be found boys
who stand highest and lowest in the
community judgment. This proves
conclusively the universal appeal
OF the recreation center.
Another innovation is the Grades

is to develop ensemble singing and

Between the hours OF twelve and

Bank of Victor and escaped with
about $4,000 in war saving stamps.
No attempt, however, was made to
blow the safe.
Sheriff Baker was called to Victor
the following morning to make in
vestigation, and he informs us that
the same methods we're used on the
Victor Bank that were employed in
entering and blowing the vault on
the Claire City bank last week, and
that it is almost certain that the
same parties did both jobs.
A hole was drilled in the vault, In
which was poured nitro glycerine
and hole blown lagre enough to al
ow man to enter with ease. Several
trays, containing different kinds of
legal blanks and other papers were
gone through thoroughly and thrown
upon the floor in the main once
room of the bank Several safety de-
posit boxes were forced and it was
from these that the war saving
stamps were taken. So far as has
been reported there was nothing else

Golden Rule store at Claire City ear
ly Sunday morning and ao.lbletsly
destroyed large portion of the bust

Young people returning from a

an alarm. The fire fighters responded
readily, but found upon arriving at
the scene of the trouble that the fire
apparatus was not in working order.
The fire fighters were soon forced
to abandon the idea of fighting the
flames with the fire extinguisher,
and volunteer bucket brigade was
soon formed which, by hard and eff
ficient work. succeeded in prevent
ing the flames spreading to the
building across the street.
The Golden Rule store, Rex Cafe,

were the main sufferers. The esti-

is as follows:

HOPKINS SENDS
HOOVER LETTER
ON CONFERENCE

The following Open Letter in re-
lation to the Unemployment Confer
ence. dated October 11th, has been
addressed by Mr.. j. A. H. Hopkins,
Executive Chairman OF the Commit
tee of 4S, to Herbert Hoover, Chair
man OF the Unemployment Confer
ence:
''The Honorable Herbert Hoover.
Chairman. Unemployment Confer
ence. Washington, d. C.
Dear Sir:
have followed with much inter-
est the deliberations of the Unem
ployment Conference and especially
the recommendations which have so
far been publishd, and it has been
matter of keen regret to me that up
to the present time the Conference
has apparently made no effort to as
certain or deal with the real cause
for the existing situation. For unless
we ascertain the cause we cannot
hope to supply remedy.
We are living today under system
of minority control by a banking
syndicate whose knowledge of states
manship and economics is in inverse
ratio to their ability as financial pres
tidigators; and while there may be
contributing cause the fundamental
reason why we have an unemploy-
ment problem today can be traced to
this fact. "
1t is unnecessary for me to fur
ther describe the situation. which
was graphically brought out in the
report OF the Pujo committee and
more fully described in House Reso-
luton No. $50, introduced on jan
uary 81. 1921 in the third session of
the 66th Congress- by Congressman
Raer of North Dakota.
The working out OF this system in
relation to our present unemploy-
ment can be described ina few words:
A year and a half ago prices and
wages were high. Both were ficti-
tious, but we. had comparative pros
perity. Had we adopted an intelli-
gent method OF readjustment prices
and wages would have gradually
come down to a more normal level,
and we would today be enjoying a
sounder prosperity.
| But the banking fraternity had
passed through a period Of unpre-
cedented profiteering and were re-
luctant to adopt any plan that would
not preserve to them an abnormal
ratio of profit. The appetite for
money, like the taste for blood. once
aroused cannot be easily satAted.
They were also fearful Of the In
creasing power Of labor. They reach
ed the conclusion-not unnatural
considering their environment-that
by creating unemployment, they
could break labor, smash wtGes. and
leave prices at comparatively the
same level. So they embarked upon
The Sisseton weekly standard. (Sisseton, Roberts County, S.D.) 1892-1929, 1921-10-21

a deliberate plan to create unemploy-
ment.
They control credit. Industry is
dependent upon credit When credi.
is reduced the wheels OF industry
slacken. When credit is cut of they
stop. Under the pretence OF deflat-
ing currency the banking fraternity
curtailed credit Manufacturers,
farmers, and business men
were denied the whcrewithal
with which to finance their
operations. Industry slowed down.
