FARMERS ASK
FARM L0ANS0F
$15,000,000.00
From Bank of North Dakota
Made Up Of 3,l6s Different
Requests

: Requests for almost fifteen millions
IN farm loans have been made OF the
Bank of North Dakota according to an
inventory Of the business to Novem-
Der 23, 1921, which Mr.. Cathro, man
ager Of the bank turned over to Mr..
Wilbert B. Default when the latter
took charge of the Farm Loan De-
'partment December 5th. The grand
total of requests, $14,S94,274 repre-
serted 3,16S different requests from
all sections of North Dakota. A per-
centage Of the requests later were
withdrawn and fifty-one applications,
for total Of $216,000, failed to pass
the scrutiny Of the finance committee
of the bank.
! According to the inventory, $685.
1885 has been completed SO that the
mortgages representing the same have
been turned over to the state treas
urer. The state treasurer's records
concur in these figures. The inven-
tory lists $207,40141 as completed
and ready for the assignment Of the
mortgages to the state treasurer. This
indicates that mortgages valued at al
most three million dollars. S2,S75.-
1854 to be exact, are in the hands OF
the state treasurer or the bank. ac-
cording to the inventory representing
completed loans.
The inventofy also lists 561 addi-
tional loans as having been approved
and the lands appraised, the proposed
loans on this number reaching ST.

9S4,600 while another total of $40 re-
quests for loans are listed as waiting
the appraisal OF the lands. The 979
requests for money total .$4,SSl Q90,
making possible total of S6,275,690
of loans, which if approved by the
present Industrial Commission will
precede all other loans. This also
makes the possible business of the
Farm Loan department, $9,151; ;42141
without additional requests.
The first effort of the Industrial
Commission and Mr.. Default as it's
agent will be to get the most exact
data possible upon the status of all
incomplete and prospective loans as
these are included in the totals above.

knowledge Of the amount of money
that may be raised by the sale Of
bonds, the sale of securities now held
by the state and all other avenues
from which, money may be legally di,
verted Nto the farm loan business OF
the Bank OF North Dakota, the Indus

tion to announce it's future course.
Governor Nestos, in his inaugural
address and at other times has indi.
Gated that he believes it possible to

not secret, however. that the In

STATE RESISTS
AN INCREASE IN
EXPRESS RATES
Brief is Sent to Interstate Com
merce Commission at
Washington

The State of North Dakota's brief
opposing an increase in intrastate eX-
press rates by order of the Interstate
Commerce Commission was today
forwarded to Washington from the of
flee of Attorney General Sveinbjorn
Johnson. The case, which has been
in dispute for several months, was
heard by an examiner for the com.
merce commission in Bismarck The
state was granted an extension Of
time in filing its brief because Df the
change in state administration.
The state railroad commission had
granted an increase Of 12 IL per cent
in intrastate express rates, but de-
MED a further increase of 13 10 per
cent. Ht
The state questions the jurisdiction
OF the Interstate Commerce Commits,
sion over intrastate express rates.
I'VE maintain that no undue burden
has been shown to exist against in
terstate commerce. the attorney-gen-
eral contends, that the difference be.
tween intrastate and interstate rates
ana charges are no greater generally
than obtains by reason Of the block
division of localities and that such diff
ference is incidental to the lesser cost
of operation in North Dakota where
the service of the express company
provides pickup and delivery in but %
out Of 54S agencies, as compared to
the greater cost in other states where
expensive autos are maintained and
operated in the pickup and delivery
service. -T..
''We maintain that if actual undue
discrimination between localities or
persons should be found, that particu-
lar situation should be cured without
burdening the interior distributors
within the state with rates 13 1-2 per
cent higher, which are claimed by us
to be unreasonable and were so found
by the North Dakota Commission af-'
ter investigation and hearing. We fur
ther maintain that proper supervision
should reduce materially the amount
of loss and damage claim payments,
that consideration should be given to
the high rates of depreciation charged
off against equipment, and that pro
per action along these lines will en-
tirely ,offset the increase in pay un'
derlying this proceeding, and prove
to this commission that the present
rates in North Dakota are entirely
reasonable per Sc"

MARKETING is
BIG PROBLEM

Fargo, Dec. 7-Lack Of standard
ization of farm products, in other
words shipping the run Of the farm to
market instead of preparing the farm
products to comply with the market
demands is causing the farmer greater
loss than any other single thing that
enters into his marketing problem,
not excepting high freight rates"
This was the assertion Of DR.. Lee
Coulter, in his second and conclud-
ing address on marketing before the
school of extension workers at the az
ricultural college here today.

JOHNSON SAYS
VOTES MUST BE
KEPT SEPARATE
Fair Sex Not Allowed TO Use
Same Ballot Box AS The
Sterner Sex

In spite of the right Of universal
suffrage, North Dakota women do not
have the right to place their ballot in
common ballot box on election day,
according to al opinion handed down
by Acknowledgement SVeinbjorn John
son IN answer to a questioning letter
from Secretary of State Thomas Hall.
The constitutionality of the law which,
withhOlds this right from women, Mr..
Johnson does not presume to judge.
declaring that the supreme court is
the only authority upon that subject.
Separate registration 1f men and wo-
men is not required, Mr.. Johnson
holds in another section of the same
opinion.
Mr.. Hall submitted the request for
an opinion because of the many let
ters he has received from the county
auditors over the State who in asking
for election materials for election not
infrequently say a certain amount OF
the ballots must be kept separate and
half that amount if combined So far
the larger amount of material has
teen sent in all cases, as Mr. Hall has
been compelled to reply that the law
holds the BALLOTS must be cast and in
soma. instances reported separately.
While admitting the interest through
cut the country ,at.large in the way in
which the members of the better half
vote, Mr.. Hall is Of the opinion that
universal suffrage should mean equal
ity in the eyes of the law in the mat
te. of voting. &
State Machinery Defective
While the women Of North Dakota

of the law applied to the &ate recall
election, still the votes were cast in

Need Of Change
Mr.. Hall has been aware of the neai
of change in the interest Of efficiency
and economy for some time and at
tempted to get law through the last
session of the legislature, doing away
with the two boxes and the discrin,-
