Attorney General johnson recently
issued a statement to the press that
the Attorney Generals Department
had expended $47,00O.OO in the two
year period of 1919 to 1921, for SAL
aries and expenses of Special Assist
ant Attorneys General. Mr.. Johnson
evidently wished. to give the impress
sion that this sun was expended by
the League Administration and was
awarded in salaries to special attor-
neys appointed by Mr.. Lemke. AS a
matter of fact very little money was
spent by Mr.. Lemke in salaries to
special assistants. The law provides
that the Attorney General shall ap-
point a specified number Of regular
3 assistants, and may appoirt an addi-
tional number Of special assistants as
need for them arises. Mr.. Johnson in
his criticism, did not attempt to crit
icize the League Administration for
employing the regular assistants re-
quired by law, but did attempt to show
that the Administration had gone be-
yond the legal requirement and had
hired special assistants whose salary
amounted to s47,000.00.
The records of the Site Auditor
have been carefully examined and
vouchers calling for salaries and ex-
penses of both special and assistant
Attorneys General, and regular As
sistant Attorneys General, listed. The
records show that Mr.. LANCER as At
toTney General, spent only a total of
$11,466.56 as shown by ninety seven
vouchers in the office of the state au-
dit0r, for both regular and special as
sistant attorneys general. The record
further shows that Mr.. Lemke, as At
torney General, spent only a total of
$12,A80.52 as shown by the books of
the State Auditor, for both regular
and special assistant attorneys gener-
u. Such expenditures covering a per-
fod extending from January 4 1919
to Nov. %, 1921, when the New Ad-
ministr1tior came into power.
The total amount spent by both MI.

new COMMISSION
CANCEL farm LOANS
ALL FARM LOANS CANCELLED
BY NEW INDUSTRIAL CON-
MISSION

The New Industrial Commission,
through Manager Denault, head of the
Farm Loan Department of the Bank of
North Dakota, have announced that all
Farm Loan applications now on file in
the Bank of North Dakota will be can
celled.
This means that thousands of farm
ers who have had their applications on
file, pending bonding sales, will never
receive their money.
The New Administration were elect
ed>on the League platform, and pledg-
ed to carry out"the Industrial Program
since their election, much criticism
has been directed against them for
their failure to make loans from the
money derived from bond sales made
by the outgoing League Administra-
ton, upon the I'VE of retirement. 1t
will be remembered that the Frazier
Administration, sold fourteen million
dollars worth of bonds before retiring
from office, and of this sum, eight
million was in real estate bonds, the
proceeds of which were intended to be
used for farm loans through the Bank
of North Dakota.
The New Administration upon coming
into office Immediately cancelled the
delivery Of one half of the real estate
bonds, which the League Administra-
ton had sold for par, at 6 per cent as
provided for by law. Of the remain
ing four millions of dollars worth of
bonds, which were delivered to Spit
ger Rorick & Co., by the New Indus
trial Commission, no loans were made.
The New Industrial Commission at
first announced that they would be
able to make, farm loans by spring,
but the later announcement, that they
had cancelled all farm loans applica-
tions now on file, was made yesterday.
Manager Denault gives as his rea-
son for this action, that the amounts
allowed by the League Industrial Com
mission, on pending farm loan applica-
tions, was excessive, and cites a letter
from one of the Appraisers, Mr.. Malie
Townsend, in which Mr.. Townsend
makes mention of the fact that a Ger
tain farmer applying for q farm loan,
was a good Lacquer, and ought to re-
ceive a loan, since his farm was worth
the money. No loan was made on Mr..
T~ownsend's recommendation, nor do
the records show that any loan was
ever made on such D Recommendation.
The amount Of farm loans thus IAN
celled by the Industrial Commission
amounts to more than n million dol
lars, and were mostly located in the
western part of the state. '

The price of cotton was low III 1919,

a hog weighing 200 pounds would
in 1924 pay for so rods OF barbed
wire. Such hog nowadays would
only pay for I'd rods.
Thus hopeless has the situation Of
the American farmer become, however
hard he must work to procure a liv-
ing for himself and the rest Of the
people ii the land. We have laid a.
penalty on a big production. The fact
is that big crops brings the farmer.
fewer dollars than a little one, and big
crops a we had in 1920 and 1921, will
not pay the expenses, farmers had in
producing them"
That the farmers and working
classes have no voice in price-making
is evident from this sketch. They are
literally slaves to another element, or
faction. They may get equal rights
Individually, but they certainly do not
get 1t collectively, or as q class. / do
not think any one a refute these
statements but rather confirm them
This outline of the farmers situation
has little value as information, b cause
the farmers have already felt it, and
the opposers have first, devised the
plan and then. actuated it. The selfish
characteristics peculiar to human be-
ings is allowed too wide a range and
there are too many chancs for
schemers to. organize themselves,
evade the law, make laws to protect
them,' secure a monopoly on various
articles Of merchandise, and thus make
an enormous proft in a comparatively
easy way.
Many Of the farmers, who withstand
the farmers movement, blame hard
times to poor crops, and not to any
thing else. They have a feeble solu-
ton to the problem because according
to authentic authority as MI. Wallace
should be. awe have laid a penalty
on a big production" 1t depends more
upon what you are doing nowadays
than how much you do; more upon the
vocation than the service you do to
them. The highest service should de-
mand the highest price and then it
follows that farming would be very
profitable. We are living in the pre-
sent and do not consider what the
evolutionof. such views towards farm
ing (none of us want to become farm
ers,) will be in the future. Probably
society will go back, leave the idea of
Independence, and each n row his
own boat. e
