Nominated u. s. Judge.

Despite vigorous opposition on
the part of many groups in
North Dakota, Andrew Miller of
Bismarck, N. D., has been nomi
mated as federal Judge for the
N. D. judicial district. While the

ton, the senate has at the time
of the present writing failed to
confirm it. and it is expected a
bitter fight will ensue along
political lines. Mr.. Miller is a
native of Denmark, having been
born on the island of Falster in
1870.

Brown, all farmers associations and

is no such thing that it can't be done.
You are telling the public am paying
too much and cutting down on test.
Now, Mr.. Brown, you know better
than that. You have been. in the
cream business long enough to know
that a stunt like that can't be done.
Now, to prove to you that you are

eminent will insist that the powers az.

many repay, principal and interest,
their indebtedness of more than $780,
000000,000 to this country.
President Harding and his cabinet
discussed the whole question of for
efgn Indebtedness at their meeting and
the President disclosed, after the con.
ference, that the policy Of his admins.
tration is to regard the foreign loans
as valued asset" which ultimately
must be repaid by the debtor nations.
This is the first announcement Of
the Harding administration OF the
question, of the Allied indebtedness.
It refutes permanently all reports to
the effect that the new administration
might agree to cancellation.
Loans In Detail.
The loans of the United States to
foreign governments, exclusive of in
terest, which has not been paid, total
$9,450, 100000, divided as follows:
United Kingdom, s4,210,00O, 900:
rAd-AC0, P6,SoV,VVO,VVV, 1Idly, @1,OAo.'
100000: Russia, s190,OOO,O00; Belgium.
$400, 100000; Serbia and Jugo-Slavia,
500, 100000; other Allies, $175,0OO,-
900.
Accrued interest on these loans nj.
ready amounts to over $1,000, 100000,
which brings the total of Allied in
debtedness to date up to $10,500, 000,-
600. No payments of interest have
been received by the United States
from any debtor government except
where they had borrowed more from
this government for that purpose
The Treasury department, during
the Wilson administration and with the
approval of Congress, agreed to the
deferment Of interest on these debts
for three years, ending in 1923. In
other words, payments of interest on
the debts in all probability will not be.
gin for over two years, by which time
another 1,0O0,0O0,000 in interest pay
ments will have accrued.
AS yet the Harding administration
has gone no further than taking the
firm and final stand that the Allied
debt. must be paid. Just how it is to
be done will be matter for consider
able negotiations with the govern
ments involved.

Growers Decide to Take Fight
For Reduction Direct to
President Harding.
IMMEDIATE CUT ASKED
Interstate Commerce Commission Con.
ference neutrality-suspicious.
Freight Cut Would Cause Gen.
erai Price Decrease.

Observation-Disclosures from all parts
CT the United States meeting here un
der the auspices of the National Farm
ers union decided to take their fight
for reduction in freight rates direct
to President Harding.
This decision was reached after the
spokesman for the farmers had con
ferred with members of the Interstate
Commerce commission to urge l5wer
rates. The delegates apparently were
dissatisfied with the outcome Of this
conference.
Officials Of the National Farmers
union said the President probably
would be asked to Ca, conference Of
shippers, labor and the railroad labor
board. Interstate Commerce commits.
sion. steel and other interests which
furnish the railroads supplies and
bankers to discuss a voluntary read.
justment SO as to restore commerce to
its accustomed channel and give an
impetus to business and agriculture.
Such suggestion was put forward
at the conference of the farmers with
the Interstate Commerce commission.
Immediate Reduction Asked.
Immediate freight rate reductions
were urged at the hearing before the
Interstate Commerce commission.
Members of the union told the commits.
sion that besides reducing the loss now
sustained by the farmers in the sale of
their crops, a lowering of freight rates
would be big psychological factor in
starting the marketing OF farm prod.
ucts and general price reduction in
other lines.
" Unable to market their own prod.
ucts, the farmers, the spokesman said,
are virtually on buyers strike as
there is no prospect of conditions i'm.
proving in time to bring better prices
for next years crops. Members of the
commission asked for suggestions that
would make possible a reduction of
freight rates in face Of high prices paid
by railways for equipment and labor.
Commissioner McChord declared rail-
ways had lost about $S,000,000 in OPP.
Grafton during the past year and ask.
ed whether the solution was not after
all one for labor; capital, shippers and
the steel industry to solve rather than
the commission
:, Money, labor and equipment are all
abnormally high" he said.
Mr.. McChord asked Secretary Davis
whether with cheap freight rates farm
ers could market their products at a
profit
Possibly not" Mr.. Davis replied.
"but freight rate reduction would be
one factor and it would be foolish to
reject any plan that would reduce the
farmers loss simply because 1t does
not solve their whole problem
