ARRANGED BY LEGION

On February I3 and Id Bottineau
will have an opportunity to witness
two Of as good basketball games as
can be seen anywhere, Bottineau Post
No. 42 American Legion tossers will
meet the crack Minneapolis Legion
team on the above two dates and all
local people who attended the series
of games last year with Minot will
know just what to look for. This Min
neapoIis aggregation is now touring
Illinois and Indiana and up to Christ
mas time won 20 out OF II games
played. Report has it that the Minne-
apolis team has two all-American
forwards in their lineup. I I.,.
The action on the part of the local
Legion to get teams Of this calibre is
to be highly commended, but there is
one thing to be remembered and that
is to make these games a success ev-
erybody will have to attend them. Our
BOYS have xs,aranteed the Minneapolis
team $2OO.10 for the two nights and
The Courakt feels safe in predicting
that Bottineau people will be on hand
just ais strong as last year to help
bring out team TO the top.
We understand the Legion is also
arranging for games with Minot, VAL
ley City, Donnybrook, crookston,

ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE
OF q rifle FATAL

lille out hunting rabbits with a ~
rifle Saturday Of last week, Julius
Morrison, who was visiting with
Bryant Wilcox, farmer living about
six miles north Of NeWburg met death
at his own hands when in some man
lner the .22 rife he was carrying was
discharged, the bullet entering the
stomach at such an angle as to pene-
trate the lungs and finally lodged in
the heart, bringing almost instant
death in the estimation Of a physician,
who viewed the dead body.
Deceased was not well known in
that community, although he had made
arrangements to rent d farm which
he intended to move onto in the spring.
He was a member Of the american
Legion, having served his country III
the World War and took part In the
Battle Of the Argonne as well as many
other big battles.
Financially he appeared to- be in
good circumstances, $5O5 in Thrift
Stamps being found on his person, as
well as a certificate deposit for 500,
and he also had funds deposited in a
bank iii Denmark. III.
We understand the deceased man,
who was 81 years Of age, has q brother
in Boston, whom authorities have been
trying to locate.
The remains were brought to Bot
tineau Sunday evening. sss

COULTER OUTLINES BETTER
>s-4s# ~~- FARM CREDITS

Fargo, N. D., A system of banks or
trust companies, under state or fed
eral charter, to assemble the farmers
notes or evidences of credit, to issue
short term bonds upon these, and to
secure payments to apply as a sink
ing fund with opportunity to pay
more or less from year to year ac-
cording to the condition of the crops
and prices-such is the solution of the
farm credit problem proposed by DR..
John Lee Coulter, president of the
North Dakota Agricultural College,
at the annual meeting of the North
Dakota Farm Bureau Federation here.
The present credit system is de-
signed for the merchant or manufact-
urer, with their quick turnover, DIR.
Coulter says, and is entirely unsuited
to the farmer, with his long turnover
period. a.. II sa@
"While Uncle Sam had land enough
to give us all a farm, we needed lit
tie in the way of long-term, land mort
gage credit" Dr. Coulter said. fsThe
six million farmers of today soon will
have passed away. II we do not pro-
vide for system of credit whereby
the young man with little money, but
with brain and Drawn and farm sense
can buy this land and pay for it over
a period of 20 to 40 years it soon will
pass into the hands of the people od
wealth, we will have a system of alb
sentee landlordism and tenancy, ane
then we may expect real trouble

NESTOS DENIES INTENTION
OF REMOVING LEAGUE
OFFICIALS

Governor Nestos attention was call
ed to the rumor that removal of Lea
que appointive officials was conten-
plated Nv the New Administrators, and
mention made of the fact that inform
alton from any sources was to the eff
feet that commissioner Of the Com
pensation Bureau Med Donald was
among those salted for the AK. ~: Il
The Governor, speaking for the Ad-
ministration specifically denied that
charge, and said that the removal Of
League appointive officials was to be
undertaken only If cause was appar-
ent. The Governor, however, did not
attempt to explain the removal Of Tax
Commissioner Wallace, whose record
was among the best of any established
in the United States and whose remov-
al was made the occasion OF protest
,by prominent business men in this
and other states. :.
The removal of appointive officials
was never attempted by League Lead
ers during their period of control, with
the single exception of Commissioners
Wehe of the Compensation Bureau,
who was removed by Governor Frazier
upon complaint Of several individuals,
and who was subsequently reestablish-
ed in office by order Of the district
court. All appointive officials are ap-
pointed for definite term of office
and it was the policy of League Lead
,ers to recognize the right Of such
officials to serve such terms .@2 n
There is q legal question whether
the removal of appointive officials viii
be permitted by the courts, IN case the
New Administration decides to try to
remove them. s.z.. !. :5 .s I.

NEW STATE BANK HEADS -
SEEK TO EVADE RESPONSE
BILITY FOR WITHHOLDING =
OF FARM LOANS

The new heads of the Bank of North
Dakota are explaining why they have
not made, any farm loans, notwith-
standing the fact that the outgoing
administration provided them with the
proceeds of millions Of dollars Of bond
sales, to make these loans.
Manager Denault says that it is the
intention of the administration to
make farm loans as soon as possible
but that the making of such loans is
retarded by reason of the fact that
new appraisals are being made and
that the operation of the banks shows
a deficit ahead. Just why deficit
should be shown in the future, when
the bank so far has been operated pro-
fitably, is not quite clear. Mr.. Denanit
explains it on the ground that Ger
tain anticipated profits were not real
ized.
In the meantime Application Clerk
Kostizky is receiving floods of re-
quests for farm loans and is kept busy
explaining why these loans can not
BE made at this time. The manage
ment Of the Bank issues a statement
almost daily to local papers, IN an ef-
fort to placate impatient farmers who
seek to receive loans before spring
Upon being asked how il would pc
possible for the Bank TO make farm
loans before spring after canceliIng
more than million dollars il farm
loan applications on file, = member q
the administration replied that much
Iof this land could be reappriaised dur
ing the next two months. Should this
prove possible, It viii be an unexpect'
ed advantage, since the League ad'
ministration found it very diffcuit y

extra per month to carry the Cours

Mr.. Dan White receives from the
Federal Government s12.50 per month
