REPORT OF BELFAST HOME.

The report of the inspection of the
Home for Aged Women at Belfast by the
State board of charities and correction,
made public June IA says that the
Home is we'll kept and is a cheerful
place.
The report of the inspection is as fol-
lows:
President of Board. DR.. Elmer Small,
who is also the house doctor.
Treasurer, C. W. Wescott.
Matron, Mrs Annie Vose, who assum-
ed her duties week ago.
The Belfast Home for Aged Women is
two-story frame dwelling house, well
built and in good repair. 1t has a capa-
city for six women, and at present five
belong there. 1t is intended for women
who have lived in Belfast long enough to
gain settlement, and those who enter
are supposed to pay $500 if they are able.
One lady who is now at the home has
not regularly entered, but is paying her
board.
Mrs. Bramhall, the chairman of the
house committee, is an active member of
the Board, who gives attention to the
needed improvements and changes.
Recently a new furnace was installed
and the living room was newly decorated.
A contemplated improvement is the re-
and decorating of the halls.
The Home is well kept and cheerful
place, flooded with sunlight and attrac-
lively furnished.
Recent bequests.are the Pitcher bequest
Of $1,000 and the Swift bequest OF $1,000

When the international bankers, recent
ly assembled in Paris, refused to make
loan to Germany, the military party,
the financiers and the great masters
of industry in that country must have
realized, as never before, that Ger
many was hopelessly de Gated on the
battlefields of Europe. These German
Interests seem to have regarded the ar
mistice as being ruse to gain time to
save it's armies, it's munitions, its equip
ment and army supplies. 1t seems to
look upon the treaty as being scrap OF
paper and has evaded the fulfillment OF
it's terms in every way possible. There
is not a nation in the world which will
lend money to Germany and now the re-
representatives. of the great financial in
terests of the world have abandoned that
county to its self imposed fate, which
seems likely to be violent disorder and
starvation, and perhaps invasion by the
armies of France.

When the reduction of freight rates
was ordered the railroads signified their
intention to obey. When reduction OF
the wages of railroad employees was
ordered Mr. Gompers and other leaders at
once urged strike. We do not believe a
majority of the railroad employees will
follow the radicals. 1t is expected that
a strike and an anti-strike vote of Two OF
the eleven railroad brotherhoods will be
taken and the result made known before
July first. A vote of the other nine
brotherhoods may be called later. Events
are likely to push to solution the question
as to whether the labor unions or the
United States government is going to rule
an this country.

basis. And, too, when a sufficient re-
serve is accumulated there will be no
annual charge for reserve.
Therefore, as we said before, it
won't be long before 95 per cent of
the premiums will go back to the
farmers to pay losses, in place of only
$3.50 per cent which went back to
them on the 1920 crop. Private hail
insurance will be still further put in
the shade.
Enemies Of state ownership and of
the farmers program in North Dako-
ia have made wild charges about the
state not paying hail losses. But
every insured loss on the 1919 crop is
paid. There are still some warrants
out, bearing interest, on the 1920 crop,
or were at the time of the report,
dated last May, which we have before
us. But this condition will cease when
the reserve fund, now being provided
for, is sufficiently built up. The law
had to be changed to do that, after
experience Of the first year had shown
the need.
No farmer has lost anything, or
Will, Ut CAN, lose anyCnlng. ALI are
paid 100 per cent of their losses.
Those who had to wait few months
till the department collected the
premiums, which were delayed in
some instances, got warrants bearing
interest, and so were amply pro-
tected.
State hail insurance in North Da-
kota->has been tremendous success
and has saved the farmers millions of
dollars. No wonder Governor Preus
of Minnesota and the insurance men
are nervous about it! But Governor
Preus' little amendment to the Con-
stitution, making it read, "life, liber-
ty and pursuit of PRIVATE PROP
ERTY," will not go through. Other
states will sooner or later take up the
state insurance idea on large scale,
as South Dakota already has DONE.

One other senate rollcall will be
given, one dealing with the plan to
tax gifts. Many millionaires divide
their fortunes BEFORE they die, to
escape inheritance and other taxes.
Many heads of rich families give
away millions of dollars to relatives
as Christmas presents, etc. To reach
these, an amendment was offered i'm
posing graduated tax on gifts ex-
ceeding $4,000. The $4,000 gift
would be taxed 1 per cent, and the
rate would go up until gift of $10,-
100000 or over would be taxed rs per
cent. The senate approved the amend
ment by the following vote:

Great Success of N. D. State Insurance
CONTINUED from page 6)

Continued from page g.
ly the total charges retained by the
state out of premiums collected will be
less than per cent. The balance of
the money collected, IS per cent, will
GO BACK TO FARMERS to pay
losses, against less than 62 per cent
returned by private insurance COM
panies to pay losses.
But besides these two charges, to-
gether amounting to 5 per cent of
premiums collected, which the state
made against the premiums during
the second year Of operation, other
charges at first had to be added. This
was necessary because it was NEW
plan and the FIRST law was not
PERFECT. The last legislature,
however, amended the law.
Thus, during the first two years, the
state hail department could not pay
all losses promptly. It sometimes had
to wait for premiums to be collected,
and many farmers who had losses had
to wait sometimes several months for
their money. So the state hail depart
ment had to issue warrants in pay
1nClC VI 1OSoco lIlSCcdu VI CASH. lu0Se
warrants carried interest, and
charge had to be- made against the
premiums collected which was, in
1920, for instance, $50 per cent. This
was to cover warrant interest.
WILD CHARGES ARE
FULLY DISPROVED
However, the amended law now pro-
vides for the hail department putting
aside surplus, so that eventually a
sufficient surplus will be on hand so
that ALL losses can be paid in CASH
at the end Of the crop year, without
any delay. The charge of $50 per
cent for interest will then be eliminat-
ed, and the hail insurance made that
much cheaper to farmers.
Also, for few years yet, charge
will be made against premiums col
lected, so that the surplus fund can be
added to little each year. The 1920
premiums paid 5.45 per cent into this
surplus fund and to cover expenses for
1921. Thus, that year paid the de-
partment's expenses for TWO years.
That won't happen again. 1t was
necessary this year to get the depart
ment started on paid-in-advance
