APPEAL TO LOYAL CITIZENS
OF THE STATE OF \. OAK.

AS to annul your program, they
entered suits attacking the consti-
tutionality OF your laws, which
suits were fought through the state
and federal courts, carried to the
United States Supreme Court and
decided finally and conclusively In
favor Of the state.
But even though the highest
court in the land had sustained the
principle OF self-government and up
held your constitutional amend
ments and laws. your opponents in
the state and elsewhere did not
cease their attempts to destroy your
program. They initiated other
laws for the purpose of destroying
the Bank of North Dakota. They
circulated false ana Iibelous state
ments attacking the state admins
tration, the bank and the credit
of the people, through hundreds of
newspapers in every section OF the
country. They directly approached
the officials and representatives OF
bond houses who we're negotiating
for the purchase of your bonds,
authorized for the financing of your
program.
Last November you again repelled
these attempts by your votes. But
still again the enemies OF your pro-
gram have the temerity to ask you
to repudiate the officials you elect
ed to carry out that program, and
to approve laws that are plainly
calculated for its des;ruc,Yon. You
are asked to vote out of Office the
men OF your choice and to vote into
Office men whose record shows
them to have always beenruOpposed
to every part Of your program, so
that they can destroy it from with
in.
Upon what pretense are these
astounding propositions submitted
for your approval?
It is charged that the Nonpar-
tisan League has had Ave years in
which to produce results, but that
it has failed to make good. This
brazen charge is made in spite of
the slanderous,- propaganda, legal
interference and boycotting OF state
bonds carried on by these forces 90
retard, discredit and destroy our
state industries.
It Is pretended that the admins
tration has been inefficient to car
rying out the program. But these
proposals Of the opposition show

The North Dakota grain grades
conform to the United States Grain
Standard Act and are based upon
and are the same as United States
grades established under the auth
Ority Of that act. The grain grad
ing act passed by the 1919 session
OF the Legislature did not establish
grades for wheat or other farm
products, but gave authority to es-
tablish them to the Chief Inspector
Of Grades, Weights and Measures
The Grain Inspection Department
established the same grades as the
u. s.. grades TOR the reason that
most Of our grain is marketed out
side the state and while more just
grades could be- established, that
were based upon the actual milling
value Of the grain, my such grades
would have conficted with the
federal grades and could not have
ben enforced outside the state
where practically all our wheat ts
sold. Also it was believed that
the agents OF the grain gamblers OF
the Minneapolis Chamber OF Com
merce would attack the law and Il
our grades were not in conformity
with the U. s. standard they would
prevent us having any power Of reg
sulation OF the grain buyers ard
grain elevators in the state. That
is Just what happened. They have
kept the Grain Inspection depart
ment In litigation In their attempts
to destroy this law.
"A great many grain BUYERS have
made the statement to their patfOns
that the Nonpartisan legislature es-
tablished the present grain grades,
which is not true, but was estab-
lished ais above stated. so as not to
conflict with u. s, standards.
There seems to be an attempt on
the part OF the grain gamblers e
mislead the farmers In regard to
the grain grading and inspection
law. not on account Of the grades,
however, as the injustice Ct those
grades are to their advantage, but
because Of other provisions q the
law that operates To prevent them
from defrauding the producers q q

and weights, to paw for dockage
when feed prices are high enough
to pay cleaning charges, to prevent
them from buying at an unreason-
able margin and to make elevators
put up bonds to secure the payment
for stored grain.
They do not like the law because
upon complaint of any producer of
grain that the law is being violated
in any of these respects, or IL in any
way elevators and grain buyrs are
not giving square deal the de-
partment Is authorized. to investi-
gate and ascertain the facts and ii
the law, or rules of the department
have been violated the license can
be revoked
And so the attempt is made to
make the law unpopular by charg-
ing the department with the respon-
sibility OF grain grades established
by the federal government when In
reality the department had no
choice I'm the matter. In fact Com
missioner John N. Hagan, DIR. Ladd
and Chief Inspector McGovern have
all been before the y. 8. depart
ment of agriculture onfcials and at
tempted to get these grades changed
so as to give the farmer greater
degree Of justice.
Farmers can help themselves
toward getting greater justice. In
their dealings with grain buyers by
reporting any violation Of the law

partment at Fargo.
Does the buyer give the correct

TO THE CITIZENS OF NORTH
II AKnTA.x a

~ AAAC SA1AAEASC w A$SASASA
. DAKOTA:
Eight years ago you adopted by
your votes a constitional amend
ment authorizing the state to es-
tablish terminal grain elevators and
to maintain and operate the same.
Two years later the legislature re-
fused to obey your mandate. AS a.
protest against this refusal group
of farmers organized the Nonparti-
san League, the purpose of which
was to elect to the state legislature
persons who would pledge them
selves to the carrying out of this
mandate of the people.
This organization drew up pro-
gram in which the demand for state
owned and oprated elevators occu-
pied the central place. The other
provisions called for fairer taxation
of farm property, for state insur-
ance against hail, for fair grain
grades and for rural credits at cost.
All OF these provisions were for the
purpose of protecting and promot-
the farming industry in the state,
which is the foundation of its pros
perity.
In 1913 you elected, by an over
whelming majority, the members Of
the state legislature and the state
officials endorsed by the farmers
organization. You initiated and
approved by your votes other con-
stitutional amendments. giving to
the legislature full power to carry
out the whole of the farmers pro-
gram.
r. In 1919 the legislature you elect
ed enacted laws providing for the
establishment of state mills and
elevators, for state hail insurance,
for fair grain grades and for a.
bank owned and operated by the
state, to finance these enterprises
and to carry out your instruction
with regard to rural credits. Inn
mediately after this legislature ac-
journed, ornonents of the program,
who had persistently and bitterly
fought your efforts, secured the ref
erendum of the principal laws es-
tablishin~ the Industrial program m.
Again, by your affirmative votes,
you repeated our demand for the
carrying out of the program.
In accordance with these repeat
ed mandates. your state officials
Immediately proceeded to organize
these enterprises; but nocwIthstand-
ing the fact that you had clearly
repudiated the request OF the l. v.

Weeks Letter to Congress.
The American people are not a
canned meat eating race" Secretary
of War Weeks says in his letter to
Congress made public yesterday ap-
pealing for lifting the ban on sale
of surplus army food supplies to
European countries.
For the reason that Americans
will not cat canned meats il they
can get anything else there is no
market. the Secretary explained, for
the s1.o00,ooO pounds of surplus
canned meat held by the War De-
partment. There is a market abroad.
but the Secretary would rather give
the food away to deserving people
rather than permit it to spoil in
American warehouses.
ut is believed" said Secretary
Weeks. that in view of the pros
pect of spoilage these meats should
be disposed of preferably to ma
tions having fair credit. but that
they should be disposed, of il neccs-
sary to any nation faced by serious
food shortage. even though the pros
poets of immediate reimbursement
to the government are slight. In
other words. that in the disposal
of these canned meats the humani-
tartan aspetc of the matter be taken
into consideration"

BY BRITISH NEWS
Liverpool and South Lead
Selling; Market Steady
At Close.

NEW YORK. April 13.-The cot
ton market was depressed today on

pressed first prices IL to l9 points.
Liverpool and the South led the
selling. while Wall Street and room
shorts were buyers. The market
subsequently steadied, with fair

feature to the market in the after
noon, but late in the day local and
outside covering led to a rally to the,
best level of the session. There
was little Southern selling here to-
day. Final quotations were very
steady at net loss of 10 to IL
points.
Spot here was quiet, with mid
ding 10 points lower, at l2.3Oc;
there were no sales. Spot at New
Orleans was steady. with middhng
l3 points lower, at 11.25c; the sales
were S04 bales.
