War Planned To
Rout Rent Hogs

"bloc's'' chief efforts will be direct
ed toward men engaged in the con-
~struction of homes
A shortage OF 1000, 600 homes
throughout the country It was stat
ed. has brought the building need
to a crisis. Remedial legislation to
protect the man building a home or
at least monetary aid n paying con-
struction costs are set forth as the
two most imminent needs.
PRoFTTEERING m MORTGAGES.
Senator King has declared that
~prohteertng in mortgages on new
homes has done more to prevent re-
sumption OF building than any one
other thing.
There are real estate companies
in which the directorships are the
same as in affiliated construction
companies said King. THE mort
pany to cover the construction COM
pany's cost 10 many times as much
as 100 per cent more than its true
value. These inflated mortgages are
discounted, the contractors and pro-
motors split their profits and the
nan who gets the mortgage is
caught. He can never realize or the
paper he holds. In many instances I
have personally found that the in
terest and discount on these mort
cages amount to so per cent of the
physical cost of construction. In
other words, a building which can
be erected for $4,000. has mort
Cages on It for $4,000. Eventually
the man holding the second mort
| gage finds his paper worth only
half as much as It's face value"
King declared that a movement
was under way to organize second
mortgage companies for handling
building paper for people desiring
to build their own homes. Such
companies. he added, would need
Federal laws to protect them. 1t
is for this purpose the tenants

The hearing on Judicial Ditch No.

ued in District Court last Monday and
the matter will again be brot mp year
from date. The lawyers acting on the
case requested the court to continue

bench. The attorneys for the peti-
TONERS were T. o. Gilbert and L, D.
Barnard and for the objectors Attor-
ney E. P. Peterson of Litchfield and J.
M. Freeman Of Olivia.
This particular ditch which is the
most important ditch ever construct
ed in this county and which has at
tracted more attention than any such
ditch, drew an attendance at the hear
ing which filled the courtroom. The
hearing opened at ten o'clock in the
morning with some 300 individuals

Renville County and Cosmos and part
of Danielson townships in Meeker

The total area embraced would be
some 100000 acres most of which lies
within the boundaries of Kandiyohi
County. This part within our county
is estimated at some three-fourths Of
the total area. AS there are about 800
parties affected by the ditch rs per

County townships named
The work provides for IS miles of
open work and 76O miles of tile. The
plans also provide for the maintaining
of Big Kandiyohi Lake and Lake Lii
liam which are gradually being re-
duced in their water levels. The ditch
will have an average depth of Is feet.
The petition for the, construction. of
this large ditch was made in 1921
when 81 parties Interested signed a
petition and presented it to the court.
The ditch Will be the largest ever
attempted and embrace the widest
tracts of land. The ditch will start; in

PRIZE WINNERS
IN STATE CONTEST
Several Hundred Answer. Gave
Plenty Work to Contest Editor
In Grading

The answers to the Tribune State
Name Contest published in our issue
of October 18th, drew much larger
response than was expected. We felt
that practically all of the Tribune
readers would look thru the puzzles
but did not expect the hundred dss s'Of
letters that were received. They made
quite a stack on the Contest Editors
desk.
The answers came early Thursday
morning, October 18th, and kept COM
ing until the contest closed on Satur-
day of last week.
The contest was not difficult one
and the puzzles did not require much
time and brain work to solve. Most of
the answers received had the names
of the states correct. In neatness how
ever most of them fell down the scale
quite rapidly. So many had the cor
rect answers that the selection of the
winners was based on the care with
which the contestant sought to give
her answers and how neatly she had
written her solution. Some very neat
letters were received and also were
correct. Other very neatly written
letters had some extreme mistakes. :
Here are some of the mistakes
made:
Iowa was the stumbling block for
most of those who failed to give cor
rect solution to the cartonettes. This
was the 9Th illustration on the page.
For Iowa many had guessed: Ohio,
Missouri, Tennessee, Illinois, Massa-
chusetts, Colorado, Idaho, Vermont,
Wyoming. Texas and California. The
Contest Editor expected to find every
one Of the 4S states guessed in place
of Iowa: The Iowa puzzle was indeed
the most difficult of the eight.
The next difficult one was New Jer-
sey. This was the second illustration.
For this name many had guessed Ken
lucky, Delaware, Texas, Idaho, Geor-
gia, louisiana and New Hampshire.
! For Connecticut some had guessed
Idaho and Rhode Island. =.
