WIN DRIVE FOR

Literary Digest Says Fund for
Starving Is Assured
IN, T.. A Staff Special. J

New York, Feb. 2.--Thirty-
millions of ifesaving dollars! Enough
to feed, clothe and medically care
for the stricken children of central
Europe.
This is the gift assured by Amer
.ca and made possible by few simple
words written from a mans heart to
the heart Of nation.
On October 10, last, Herbert Hoover
wrote to the publishers of the Liter
cry Digest that in January the Amerl-
can Relief Commissions resources for
helping the distressed little ones OF
the European war zone would ne
exhausted. He said:
"Twenty-three million dollars must
be raised without delay, and remem-
-bering the new heart you put into the
Commission for Relief in Belgium in
1916, l come to you again.
The S23,GO0,0OO was needed for
food; $10,OOO,00O additional was need
ed for medical care
The Literary Digest's answer to
Hoover came eleven days later in the
form of an editorial entitled, The
Slaughter of the Innocents,' appeal
ing for the s33yOO0,O0o. The Digest
itself started the fund with $2o,ooO.
Before the week was out the stream
began from all over the nation.
Babies broke open their penny
banks; bank presidents reached 1or
their check books. Some have re-
peated their gifts five times. News
papers, churches. civic bodies all over
the country took up the appeal. Inen
a representative national organlza-
tion was formed.
The Digest recently printed no.
tice that no more money should oe
sent to it, but to the state treasurers
or Franklin K. Lane, AZ Broadway
national treasurer of he fund. More
than s21,CO0,0O0 has been already re-
ceived and acknowledged.
"The entire $33,O00,00O is assured"

HASSTATE MINE
ATHAYNES,

Pierre, S. D., Feb. 2.--E. o. Roush,
in charge of the state.owned coal
mine at Haynes, N. D, who is here for
a few days during the legislature, re-
ports operations at the mine are going
ahead in fine shape and is enthusias-
tic over the mines future
Commenting upon the venture, Mr..
Koush said:
THE big trouble now is to get or
ders. The people Of South Dakota
generally are under the impression
that this mine will supply only state
institutions. AS a matter of fact the
state institutions made their contracts
lat summer and got their fuel supply
before the mine was organized. Con-
sequently we now have plenty of coal
to sell to individuals. We are turning
out more than one hundred tons a
day, although some of the machinery
is not yet installed and we arc not
at maximum production.
"Since this state mine has been in
operation, coal has been poured into
the territory adjacent to the mine III
the hope of undermining our business
One day recently there were 400 cars
of unconsigned coal in Aberdeen
Mr. Roush said the coal produced at
the state mine showed test of over
1000 B. T. us per ton. The coal
can be laid down in towns Of the state,
he said, under the present freight
rates, at the following prices, with
an additional 8 per cent war tax:
Aberdeen, $472; Brookings, $5.93:
Watertown, $3.50; Madison, $5.9S;
Sioux Falls, s593; Yankton, $6.07;
Mitchell, $3.50.

Administrators Stand.
The administration stand, as re-
Elected through the audit is~on Drake
mill, that It is difficult to operate
small mill at profit but that Grand
Forks mill under construction can be
made to pay.
Bank Of North Dakota solvent, and
has far greater amount Of liquid as
sets than average for state banks.
Home Builders administrative
charge was held to be less than five
percent.
Bank of North Dakota helped finan
cial situation of state by loaning
when federal reserve was calling in
loans. through which money became
tied up in many banks.
From Critical Viewpoint.
From a critical standpoint it is held
that the report bears out the Bishop
Brissman and company audit SO far
az it goes, hut that it does not fur
nish as much information as to the
operation Of the state industries as
does the other audit, except on the
Drake mill.
The Bank of North Dakota has
loaned less than $3,O00,000 to farm
ers, has tied up nearly S1,0O0,0O0 OF
public funds in state industries, has
tied up 81 percent of the sinking fund
of the state, has been operated at
huge expense of over $4,000 q
month and has tied up over three-quar-
ters of million dollars in public
funds in closed banks.
The report OF the Industrial Com
mission is incomplete in that it does
not show farm loans made, nor the
depository banks and amounts, to
show whether or not favoritism has
been practiced.
... Loss on Drake Mil.
u. The report on the Drake flour mill
shows loss far greater than is ac-
tually shown, through administrative
expenses. method of crediting assets
and liabilities, and through proba Bile
losses.
Management of Drake mill woefully
deficient in failure to hedge on wheat
during two months period. but now Is
shown to be operating on Minneapo-
lis market. 5
Failure of Drake mill virtually con-
fessed and dark outlook given for fu-
ture.
Only Bmeager report made on Home
Builders association, indicating lack
OF records.
This report, it is understood, will
be made the basis of the senate's in
vestisation of industries. 1t was re-
ceived and filed in the house.
