People Need Money.
But Bond Sale Is
Blocked

The crying need Of this state is more
money. North Dakota Is a borrowing
commonwealth. A large part of the
economic problem here is to turn in
vestors this way. Sale of state bonds
would work %incalculable benefit to
farmer, professional man, laborer, and
business man. The need is always
present. Yet today there is no way to
over-emphasize the necessity Of selling
the states bonds.
The Industrial Commission places
the responsibility for the failure to sell
the state bonds on political opponents
Of the present administration and the
enemies Of the program Of reform de-
manded by the farmers who elected
the present administration to office.
Even more incredible is the fact that
those persons blocking the sale Of the
bonds are citizens Of the state. They
have their axe to grind, and the whole
credit structure, the whole people,
suffer thereby.
The Industrial Commission does not
make these charges lightly, o in a
spirit Of partisan politics:
The evidence is too plain to any i'm
partial observer that the reason why
bond houses hesitate IN underwriting
the North Dakota issues is that citi-
zens Of this state have practised politi-
cal and economic sabotage to such a
degree that the bond buyer naturally
waits. It will be recalled that these
bonds have been voted by the people,
authorized BY the legislature, upheld
BY the state and United States SUI
preme court, and that they represent
the soundest security Of any state in
the Union.

joker was applied. 1t had never been
the custom to do so in examinations

Nevertheless, the political opponents
Of the administration have attempted
to apply this ancient Joker to the Bank
Of North Dakota and the Scandinavian

State Bank Had Five
Times Legal Reserve
While practically every privately
owned bank in the state. evidence be-
fore the senate committee showed, IL
short on Its required legal reserve to a
startling degree, under the present
law, the Bank Of North Dakota had
five times it, legal reserve had It been
necessary OF customary to, estimate
that reserve under the law applying to
the privately owned banks.
Computing from the figures con-
tanned In the Bishop, Brissman Com
pany audit Of the bank Of December 5,
1920. which al ordered by political
opponents Of the institution, the re-
serve of the Bank of North Dakota
was 7.e0s,O83.37.. Yet had the bank
been subject to the law applied to
private banks the reserve necessary
was only $1,412. ss1. SO. an excess in
reserve Of 6,195,231.79.
These figures were in direct contrast
to the ha1fytruths revealed in tho
house auditing committees investiga.
ton. In that inquiry the misleading
policy Of computing cash on hand as
the only reserve was followed out.
Cash On hand in the Bank Of North
Dakota was reported to be $46,767.7 3,
and the attempt was made by the anti
administration press to leave the i'm
preston that such was the sole re-
serve. It was not shown, as fairness
demanded, that cash. items and those
in transit for collection that day
amounted to $1.0s7,OO0. Yet the cash
reserve required by the regulations for
private banks was only 100000.
Mr.. Thatcher testified before the
senate that in contrast, only two or
three privately owned banks in the
state had kept their cash reserve up to
the. legal standard.
The subject Of reserves is open to
many misconceptions, especially when
the desire of iiniformants Is TO- be mis-

connection, the house auditing commit

kota. Nevertheless the tactics of poll
ticians of this state blocked the nego-

was made the subject of partisan po-
htical uproar and the cautious inves.

Nor was this the first time. The
same heads have shown themselves at
various times since the negotiations
with bond houses were begun nearly
two years ago. In other words. a GER
tain few, organized in a compact min
ority, are preventing the furnishing Of
North Dakota with millions in cash
and blocking the expressed will of the

the courts, for the purpose Of
politics. Never was the need for

Mr.. Cathro, appearing before the

perqtive that q considerable amount of
money be diverted to the state through
the sale of bonds in order to relieve
the credit stringency.
He was asked what in his. opinion

1T would have prevented a large
number of foreclosures Of farm loans;

clared.

money to take up their farm loans. 1t
would have permitted banks to liqui-
date some Of their assets through farm
loans and would have given them
funds to carry the farmer on his
farming operations. 1t would have
permitted some Of the banks that are
now closed to liquidate some of their
assets through the farm mortgage
channel and more likely would have
secured sufficient funds to have per-
mitted them to remain open. It would
have created more confidence on the
part Of the public by having money
brought into the state. It would have
enabled the Bank Of North Dakota to
liquidate funds now invested in farm
loans and turn them into a revolving
fund Of one to two million dollars and
kept that amount available for farm
loans and kept two million for use for
other purposes"
Mr. Cathro added while on the
stand, that the only trouble with the
Bank Of North Dakota was the fact
that the sale Of bonds had been
blocked.

Three-Fifths of PrimeVaI Forests
Have Been Cut Away Says
Forester Greeley.
SUPPLY OF WOOD NECESSARY
Despite Fact That Many Substitutes
Have Been Devised Demand for
Timber Continues to Grow
Much Land Is Idle.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Timber depletion has now reached a
point in this country where three
fifths of the primeval forests are gone
and where 81 per cent of the timber
that is left is west of the Great Plains,
Col. w. B. Greeley, chief forester, for
est service of the Department Of Agri-
culture of the United States, recently
told the members of the Chicago AS
ISOLATION Of Commerce.
Liberal use Of American forests was
a necessary part Of the commercial
growth of this nation, Colonel Greeley
believes, but refOrestatiOn should have
been practiced, if not from the start,
at least in late years. There is an
abundant area of forest land in this
country to support all industries, and
a liberal supply of wood is most nee
essary, to the people of this country.
1t was thought that, like the European
countries we would use, when our civ
flizatiOn was older, but one-third or
One-half as much wood per capita as
we did in the early days. But this
rule does not affect the American peO-
pie, The older the states and com
munities in this country grow the
more timber they seem to require In
one form or another.
Demand Continues to Grow.
Many substitutes have been devised
for wood, and yet the great demand
of the country for timber continues to
grow. More wood is used in cOnstruc-
ton today than before the discovery
of concrete, and more wood is used in
building railway cars than before the
steel or part-steel car was developed.
This is apparently true in nearly every
industry.
Abundant and widely distributed
forests have meant to the United
States homes for the masses of the
people beyond the standards Of any
other nation. They have placed news
papers and magazines on the average
family table. They have contributed
largely to social and industrial cOndi-
lions which promote democracy and
constructive energy rather than dis
content and destructive social forces
bred by hard and comfortless cOndi-
lions Of life.
The idleness Of 81 100000 acres of
forest land, an area increased by g.
OOO 900 to 100000 acres annually,
destructive logging, and still more de-
structive forest fires are the factors at
work to increase the timber shortage.

The first bottle of TaHlac to reach
the public was sold just a little ever
six years ago. It's success was imme-

quick to recognize it as a medicine of
extraordinary merit. Since that time
there have been sold throughout this
country and Canada something over
Twenty Million (20,0OO,OOO) bottles, es-

never been equalled in the history Of

which Tanlac Won when it was first
introduced has been extended to prac-

has not come about because the for
ests have been used so freely but be
cause Of the failure to use forest
growing land. In a nutshell, the prob
lem is that the United States is cut
ting wood out Of it's forests three or
four times as fast as it is being grown.
Much Of the land on which timber
stands or has been cut off will always
be forest land. 1t is ample to grow
all the wood needed for the use Of the
people Of this country and for export
trade in lumber and products manu-
featured from lumber, If the land can
be kept at work growing trees. Tim
Der for the future Is simply matter
of putting idle land to work.
Every reasonable encouragement
should be given to the landowner to
grow timber on his own account in
the ways best suited to his own pur-
poses, but by some means Or other the
public must see to it that forest lands
not needed for agriculture do not lie
idle. The regulations imposed must
be reasonable and equitable. Obvi-
Ousiy the owner of the land cannot do
1t ALL The public must aid him in
overcoming the hazard Of forest fires
and must recognize that the present
methods Of taxing forests in many
regions are equivalent to taxing
