WILL
ADVISE. BOARD
OF EXPERTS

ion of and strengthening of the rural
credits department of the Bank of
North Dakota is expected to be urged
upon the legislature at its forthcona-
ing session, by Governor R. A. Nest
os. The proposals of the governor
are expected to embrace both> the
remedying of defects existing in the
law at the present time and permit
ting the continuance of the rural Gre
dts business in the future.
In line with the governors policy,
as announced in campaign speeches,
of asking that the state industrial
enterprises be placed in the hands of
non-political boards of experts, il is
expected that such a recommends
tion will be made with regard to the
Bank of North Dakota. 1t is gener-
ally held jim administrative circles
that the distance Of the Grand Forks
mill and elevator from the state cap
ital makes it imperative that a board
be named to manage the mill, but
that the principle of non-political ma
nagement of the industries also ap-
plies to the Bank Of North Dakota.
Rural Credits Dept.
There are several measures said
to be necessary in consideration Of
the rural credits department. During
the last six months, the amount Of
money used from the Bank of
North Dakota to act as q revolving
fund for the handling of the farm
loan business has varied from 5000.
600 to 100000, averaging about
100000, and it is held by the hank
officials that the same amount of
money will be needed for the efficient
handling of business for years to
come. The legislature probably will
be asked to provide for such re-
volving fund, because of the uncer-
tainty Of depending upon available
tax funds in the bank.
Change in Payment
Under the rural credits law, the
department is permitted to charge an
amount to cover administrative ex-
penses, not exceeding one per cent.
There is, however, no provision for
turning into the farm ?oan any ex-
cess there may be over the actual
administrative expenses. One diff
Guilty encountered by both the league
and present administrations in the
sale of state bonds was that payment
at maturity was fixed by law at the
state treasures Office, whereas most
bond investors desire bonds payable
in New York. 1t is probable the leg
islature will be asked to enact law
making the payment optional, either
at the state treasurer's office or at a
trust company in New York. The
law governing the making of farm
loans by the board of university and
school lands provides that the board
may pay taxes and insurance upon
land and buildings on which loans are
made when the borrower is de.
linquent, but there is no such pro.
vision in the Bank of North Dakota
law. The laws permitting the issu.
ance of bonds has been construed tc
mean that farm loan mortgages must
mature within 80 years after the pas.
sage of the law,e which would make
the amortization period at this time
but 26 years. It is desired to clearly
provide for an amortization perioi
of 80 years.
It.also has been pointed out that
although the limit of bonds which
may be issued by the rural credits
department was raised from $40, 600
900 to $20,000,000, if the department
] is to be increased.
