ONE FARMERS FIX

Editor National Leader: Enclosed
find check. Please apply. it on my
Leader subscription. In the good
days gone by I was able to pay my
SIG dues in the Nonpartisan league
right on time, but the Harding hard
times have put crimp to that and
unless we get organized so that we
can take the "hard" out of the Hard
ing hard times, I'm afraid I will have
to pay my dues quarterly, and only by
denying myself respectable clothing
and a decent living will I be able to
do that. But I want the Leader right
along.
Do you ever stop to think that
farmer like myself, with 320 acres of
land, IL work horses, 65 to 70 head
of cattle, 120 to 140 hogs and pigs,
with abundant feed and all necessary
farm implements, is practically bank
rupt? But if we could preserve all of
this pork, beef and wheat, we would
produce enough in one year to sus-
tain our lives about Is years.. But
after converting all this wealth into
dollars we can hardly pay our taxes.
In other words, 20 acres will produce
enough to keep an ordinary family,
but under our present system prac-
tically farm the other 800 acres for
the privilege of making my living. on

GOOD IDEA

Editor National Leader: I see the
North Dakota grain grading law has
been knocked out by the courts in Or
der to keep uniformity" in the grain
business. Let's urge the farm bloc in
congress to incorporate the principles

short work, and it will make it con-
venient for the grain also.

. LAND BANK POLICY
Editor National LEADER: I have
read with much interest your editorial
on the Farm Loan Board and Its
Policy" and the two articles on the
same subject in other issues. Your
writer has evidently made a study Of
the matter and knows the. subject.
There is, however, one statement he
makes which, while true, is not the
whole truth. He states as follows:
Eight of the 12 federal land banks now
have the required amount of stock fully
PAID subscribed by farmer borrowers.
This refers to the amount of $780,
600 which was the required amount of
stock to be owned by the associations
of farmer borrowers, before they
should be entitled to elect six out of
nine directors of the federal land
banks. '. -.
The facts are, however, that eight
out of IL federal land banks had the
required amount of stock paid in by
the farmer borrowers at the time the
amendment to the law was passed,
continuing the temporary control of
the banks by the appointees of the
farm loan board, thus depriving the
associations of the right to elect six
directors, as provided under the farm
loan act.
At the present time, and for more
than two years, the required amount
of stock has been paid in by the farm
er borrowers in each and every one of
the 12 federal land banks. AS shown
by the last annual report of the board,
the farmer borrowers through their
local associations own $21,109,215 out
of the total capital stock of $27,815,-
100 of the IL banks The ownership
of such stock has since been changed
by the operation of the law if it's pro-
visions have been followed. We know
that since December 81, 1921, $75 5,OOO,-
600 in bonds have been sold, which
means at least the same amount of
mortgage loans made, on which FIVE
per cent had to be subscribed by the
association for capital stock. This
five per cent amounts to $3,75OOOO, of
which rs per cent, or $937, 500, had to
be paid back to the government, as
part of its original subscription. This
leaves $2,S12,5oO remaining with the
banks as increased capital, thus Civ.
ing the farmer borrower associations
$24,859,215 stock out of a total of
$3O,627, 900 at the present time.

AND DRY
AGENT FIGHT.
! OVER CAR
Each Arrests the Other Theo-
reticaIIy, But Commission
er's Man Is Held.

A row Is likely to be precipitated
between the park police and the
prohibition commissioner office as
a result Of the arrest last night OF
Jonathan Paul, an internal revenue
agent, on a charge Of disorderly
conduct.
According to a report made by
Sergt. Henry T. Miskell, Of the park
force, who made the arrest, he was
at Pennsylvania avenue and John
Marshall place when he saw two
machines collide. While he was
noting the license numbers Of one
Of the machines. which was being
operated by a colored hacker, a man
ran toward him and demanded that
the car be searched on the ground
that 1t contained liquor. Miskell
said he had no warrant to search
the machine and then he demanded
to know who the stranger was. At
him he was a policeman from the
Second precinct, but later acknowl-
edged that he was Paul and pro-
duced q badge. Following the re-
fusal Of the policeman to search the
car, Paul climbed into the machine
and began to remove the seats and
search the tool box.
The colored hacker complained
to the sergeant that the agent had
no right to search his machine and
Paul leaped out Of the car and
reiterated that he was a prohibi-
ton agent and informed the police
man that he was under arrest. The
policeman replied that the agent
was under arrest and told him he
would have to go to the Sixth pre-
cinct. Both men gathered the
names of witnesses and went to
the station house. Paul was
charged with being disorderly and
he was required to furnish IS
collateral.
While the argument was in prog.
ress the colored hacker sneaked
off in his car.
Paul said he saw colored fellows
load liquor on the car on Rhode
Island avenue and trailed them in
q taxicab.
