ling the condition of the farfne. in
wolves some plan that will permit him

ling the condition of the farmer in
wolves some plan that will permit him
| to borrow some more money.
The latest plan is that of Congress-
man Sinclair who wants the federal
government to advance $50 100000 to
North Dakota banks to be reloaned TO
the farmers of the state on tileir
crops, in order that "the farmers will
be able to market their produce in an
orderly manner and not force down
the price by Cutting the market" be-
cause of the railroad strike.
Orderly marketing is certainly de-
sirable this year, and the outlook is
for higher prices, but $5O,0O0,000 of
additional government money is not
needed to make it possible for farmers
to hold their grain. ..m....
In the first place, North Dakota
banks now have source of supply
for funds for agricultural loans in the
War Finance corporation which will
supply all the money needed by the
state. 1t has already loaned the banks
many millions and will lend them
many more if they need it. ~
In the second place, it is an old fall
lacy that the price of wheat is forced
down in the fall by rush to market
it. The history of grain prices for
the last 20 years doesn't show any
thing Of the kind. 1t shows that the
price of grain in the spring is, on the
average, lower than the price in the
fall if the bare cost of storing the
grain and reasonable interest charges
are added.
In the third place, the railroad
strike is not likely to cause any rush
of marketing. On the contrary, if
there is a general railroad strike the
farmers are going to find it extremely
difficult to market their grain at all.
They won't have any choice but to
hold it if the brotherhoods join the
railway shopmen.
! In the fourth place, any farmer
whose financial condition is sund, can
get ample accommodation from North
Dakota banks now. If any farmer has
grain to hold and wants to hold it, he
can undoubtedly secure reasonable
loan upon it from his own banker.
And in the fifth place, it is about
time that a halt was called on new
plans to permit the farmer to borrow
money easily. What he needs, is a
plan that will help him to pay what he
now owes. Any farmer who is MAX
ing money and getting ahead, has no
difficulty about his credit. He can
get all the credit he can use. The
problem is to increase the numbers of
farmers who are getting ahead. AS
soon as he becomes "good risk he
can get all the money he needs at as
good rates as the city man. If he is
not good risk, it is not the part of
wisdom to lend him government mon
ey. 1t would be far better to find
some way to make him 'good risk.

"Throughout the importing coun-
tries there is {. strong demand for
the different varities Of American
grain. It is blended by n1illers with
wheats from other lands, and has its
specific value in the manufacture of
-four in Europe. Don't let anyone tell
you that Europe can get along with
out American wheats. It has been
absorbing millions Of bushels yearly
for long time and will continue to
do so. Through Heatly & Co., the
Wheat Growers have almost perfect
machinery for supplying their wheat
to the people who need it both in
Great Britain and on the continent.
The results of the arrangements
should be clearly shown in the aver
age prices to be returned to the grow
ers next year," ~~"...
Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 16.-At a
recent conference between officials Of
the North Dakota Wheat Growers as
ISOLATION and Grand Forks bankers,
arrangements were made for financ-
ing the 1922 wheat pool locally.
A syndicate loan of $4,000 was
arranged to take care of immediate
needs, and the bankers promised that
this would be increased to half a mil
lion or more if necessary. The $5,-
100000 loan advanced by the U. S.
War Finance Corporation to the N.
D. Wheat Growers association, Aug.
10, will also be used in financing the
marketing of association wheat and
making advances to the growers, but
local bankers will be given the pre-
ference in the matter of interior
loans.
The Grand Forks bankers stated
that they were Fundamentally behind
the association in its efforts to sell
wheat on the open markets Of the
world, in order to reduce overhead
handling expenses and eliminate the
commission mems and speculator'
"dip" and thereby increase the price
returned to the grower.
The loan to the Wheat Growers
will be handled by the Grand Forks
Clearing House Association. The
Northwestern National Bank of Grand
Forks has been named custodian for
the War Finance loan.

The coal strike is ended and now
after all this fuss what has been ac-
complished? The only accomplish
ment we can see out of the whole mess
is a big raise in price in fuel for
which the consumer has ts pay-which
is the usual outcome of such strikes.
The buck is generally passed on to
the public.

= Samuel Gompers wants the British
unions to refuse to handle coal intend
ed for shipment to the United States
to prevent suffering for want Of fuel
in this country. 1t is understood ne
is receiving very little response to
his appeals. The British miners have
vivid recollections of their own strike
of two years ago, and it's complete
failure with tremendous losses to
themselves. They have learned to ap-
preciate a good job, and they are not
going to strike again merely at the
behest of Mr.. Gompers.

While the northwest is wondering
what show it is going to have in get
ting coal the following dispatch ir
today's morning papers might furnish
a little food for thought:
Sparta, Ill.,, August IA. -
Thirty cars of coal, being hauled
from non-union fields in Kentuc-
ky, were uncoupled from a Mo-
bile & Ohio train, unloaded and
the coal set afire by crowd OF
men at Percy, near here, late yes
terday, according to word receiv-
ed this afternoon"
Can the strikers expect to gain any
support from the public under such
acts as the one noted above? Instead
of trying to work up public sentiment
favorable to them they are all the
time doing just the opposite.

United States Senator E. F. Laid
is to tour Europe for first hand
tudy of economic conditions we read
in the papers this morning LEAVING on
the trip some time this week. Before
he goes to Europe the senator should
stick on the job long enough here to
see the economic settlement OF the
coal strike and few other things
that are disturbing the peace OF the
United States. He has been saving
the people of the state millions OF dol
lars already-he admits it himself
in his advice about what kind OF wheat
to SOW and how to run the state mill
and elevator, so that after ne has
been overseas and gotten an insight
into the economic conditions over
there he can come back and save
many millions more by personally as
sun1ing the management Of the big
state mill and elevator at Grand
Forks. And while he is across the
big herring pond he might drop into
Ireland and settle the difficulties that
now beset the Irish people. A mind
as versatile as his should find it duck
soup to settle a small thing like the
Irish trouble.

The example set by a New York
patrolman, Lawrence Walsh, is one
which might we'll be copied by every
policeman and every other peace Off
GER in the country.
Walsh was stabbed twice in the
back by man whom he had angered
in carrying on his duty. The blade
went so deep that it narrowly missed
the policeman's heart, but Walsh seiz-
ed his assailant and started for the
station house with him.
A crowd Of men who had seen the
attempt to assassinate the policeman
menaced the prisoner and only the
conscientious regard for duty display
ed by Walsh may have saved the Grim
;inal frommob treatment.
To his bravery in overcoming the
armed adversary Walsh added an ex-
hibition of fine respect for the law.
None would have blamed him if,
wounded as he was, he had left his
assailant to the mercy of the crowd !;
but he fought his way through the
throng and took his prisoner safely
to the station.
A good man, Washable to hold
his own against an armed scoundrel
and able to keep the scoundrel I'M
harmed until the law should deal with
him. So long as the Police Depart
ment has plenty of men like Walsh
the politicians will not succeed in
breaking its morale.=N. Y. Herald.

Under the title Of "The Drifting
Republic" the Omaha World Herald,
owned by Senator Hitchcock, says that
"When the Omaha Central Labor I'm
ion, by what is reported as unani-
nous vote, declares for general
strike, nationwide, to support the
strikes now on and to rescue Ameri-
can labor from slavery, storm flag
is unfurled indicating conditions sim
lister and ominous." But the storm
flag has not been recently raised. 1t
was raised in 1916 when the Four
Brotherhoods went to Washington
and virtually pointed a pistol at the
head of the Government, demanding
that a certain law be passed by GER
tain hour or nationwide strike
would be called, interrupting all
transportation and placing the entire
nation at the mercy of it's foes at
home and abroad. When the storm
flag was then raised, Senator Hitch
cock surrendered and voted for the
infamous Adamson bill. No wonder
if the flag still waves. Will the vot-
ers of Nebraska register approval of
the Hitchcock surrender to the threat
of force?

The Fargo morning distress, the
Courier-News-we call it that because
it always seems to be in deep distress
over something - by some sort OF
brainstorm says this morning that the
defeat of Senator McCumber, which
was brought about by his alleged
friends, means the defeat Of the Great
Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway propo-
sition. The en-. goes out Of its way
to say that the insurgent republicans
of the state, who cannot and will not
bow down at the shrine of state So
cialism and Frazierism are response
BILE for the failure Of this great pro-
ject which will cause the loss of mil
lions to the farmers of the northwest.
In other words the Courier-News is
going out in a broadcast manner, hit
or miss, to find some sort of griev-
ance to fout before the people Of the
State to try and win votes for Frazier.
It's work is too coarse. No matter
whether McCumber retires from the
head of the big finance committee or
not. the fact still remains that that

Suggest Drastic Ways to COM
bat Professionalism in
College Sports.

CHICAGO. Feb. ASSOCIATED Press).--
Athletic directors of seventeen middle
western universities in statements to the
Associated Press to-day suggested dras-
tic ways of combating professionalism
in college sports and agreed that prompt
action must be taken, particularly in
regard to football.
The suggestions included abolishment
of professional football, formation OF a
national organization to fight profess
sionalism in colleges aid from the press
in preserving college amateuriem, CO.
operation with pro" organizations to
prevent signing OF college men and a
general athletic house cleaning at once
in all universities.
One director thought elimina tion Of
stadium drives would help, saying there
was too great temptation now to
overlook professionalism for the sake Of
getting winning team which would
help in the stadium drive. Another
placed the blame for professionalism
squarcly on the schools themselves
saying they had winked at summer
baseball so long" that they had brought
on the recent revelations of pro football.
Summaries OF tho statements follow:
HOWARD JONES. Iowa: Faculty and
oth'StiS bSduS VI lIlo WcSteTH COnlcr-
ence should inset at once to decide how
to combat pro football and to act on
summer baseball"
DANA EVANS. Northwestern 1.-THE
way TO prevent professionalism is TO

IL. Q. SrIEHM. Indiana: "rhe pro or
Sanizations should lcgislate against COL
lege men. We must develop an honest
and gentlemanly agreement in our
schools to prevent our men from playing
pro games"
n. A. KELLOGG, Purdue: "The fact
that the summer baseball rule has never
been enforced has caused a feeling
among the football men that they also
could play pro ball and get away with
1t. We must enforce the present rules
or modify them so that we can enforce
them"

''Proselyting has been a growing

also been demoralizing to the me rails
of high school boys. Competition
among tho colleges OF the East for
high school athletes, / am informed,
