WOULD APPOINT
RECEIVER FOR
EACH "A DISTRICT I
Proposal Made To Divide State
Into Eight Banking
Districts

Tentative division of the state into
eight banking districts has been made
by the State Banking Board, the basis
OF the change being the hope that il
will be possible to appoint a receiver
in each Of the districts to take charge,
OF the closed banks in the area. While
some OF the present receivers are
holding their positions through court
action, an appeal will be taken to the
supreme court Immediately for a final
review of the statutes involved, and
in the meantime the banks without
receivers, or the banks where the re-
ceivers have resigned, have been,
grouped
The divisions are tentative only and
may be changed as conditions war
rant. o. L. Engen of the Fargo Dis
trict was the first Of the receivers to
be appointed and he has taken over
the control of most of the banks in
his district. The proposed groupings,
listed by the names of the towns in
which banks have been or are closed
follows:
Grand Forks District
Grand Forks, Milton, Bathgate,
Mowbray, Crocus.

Jud, Cogswell, Crete.

siders it unfortunate that the law pre-
vents the issuance Of loans upon a
one per cent amortization plan as it
would have made the payments easier
for the farmers to meet.
Under the plan a man receiving a
loan of, one thousand dollars will pay
sixty-tive dollars interest and fifteen
dollars principal the first year or a
total Of eighty dollars. The interest
payment becomes smaller amount
each year and the principal payment
larger amount Of the annual eighty
dollars until the final or twenty
sixth year when the total amount is
slightly increased to complete all pay

Gov. Nestos on Last Day
of Old Year
TAKES WALLACE'S PLACE

"a E = Z. . fgta
| G. c. Converse OF Williston is North
! Dakota Tax Commissioner. Mr.. Con-
verse was given his commission by
Governor r. A. >Nestos late on the last
! day OF the. year when George e. Wal
lace, tax commissioner for the last
nine and half years rennuuished his
office. Mr.. Wallace spent his last day
in office in getting details ready for
the new administration and cleaning
his DISK of personal matters which had
Accumulated in his long : tenure as
guardian of the states taxes.
In quitting his office, Mr.. Wallace
made the following statement:
"It is with regret that now real
| ize tll. time has now arrived for me to
lay down the duties of my office after
a continuous service of almost ten
years.
During all this time the work done
id the department. has been real
mans job. Particularly heavy has
been the litigation I have conducted to
safeguard the public funds. One case
is now with the state supreme court
affecting the question Of the taxation
of stocks in state banks. The issue is
so drawn that it is possible for the
court to decide also the question Of
taxation for national banks Assum-
ing that the court will deal with both
the amount of money involved iE that
one case alone, is sufficient to pay my
salary for five hundred years. I feel
confident that the case will be won for
the public
:% There is also case tried and
awaiting decision by the supreme
court of the United States, which
argued Ahis month. 1t involves the
law taking the four principal rail
roads of the state on the value of the
capita. stock. There are pending
about twenty-five revenue cases that
will not be able to reach. The to-
tai amount involved in, submitted and
decided cases reach we'll into the mil
lions in revenue. The untried cases
also iavolve large amounts of taxes.
Although taxation is very dry
and technical subject, yet I have
learned to love it, and feel that have
gone a long way in mastering it, es-
pecially with reference to court work.
County officials have co-operated
splendidly in the enforcement of the
revenue laws. I desire, at this time,
to thank them one and alb for their
valuable assistance.
The new administration must, take
up my tasks where I lay them down.
There is a great deal.to do. I wish the
new administration God-speed and
good luck in solving these questions
for the public" ..tl.. a.

Obert A. Olson, formerly State
Treasurer has written to Congress-
man George NJ. Young suggesting that
Mr.. Young and his North Dakota COL
leagues in the house and senate at
Washington approach the War Fl.
nance Corporation with a proposition
of buying all of the delinquent tax
lists Of the different counties of North
Dakota. The letter is written because
of the offers of different financial
companies to purchase warrants in the
state at high rates OF discount, some
offers running as high as 20 per cent. !
Mr.. Olson believes that going at the
present financial problem pieeemeal is
a poor fiscal policy and that the top
and not the bottom is the proper place
of attack BY having one organization.
or possibly cooperation of different
organizations purchase the delinquent
taxes all state, county, township, city
and town organizations would have,
money to function and not only would
the farmers with hail warrants have
their money, but the schools would be
relieved of large amount of worry
and many avenues of state business
would bArsopened.

ICE CREAM DISAPPEARS
Preble Gives Pary-Uninvited Guests Steal Refreshments-Now He Wants to Buy a Dog.

Uninvited guests almost put a "kink" in the party last evening when they stole the ice cream with which Mir. and Mrs. Elliott M. Preble of Is Monroe street had planned to treat some friends. The occasion was ar- ranged for the Prebles by a number | of MT. Preble's friends in celebration of MT. and Mrs. Preble's recent wed ding. Those who attended included Dr. and Mrs J. E.

R,0, CLARK OUT 0F
 LEGISLATIVE RACE East Berlin Resident Will Not Seek Seat in Hartford COAL SHORTAGE IN TOWN Orders Are Not Being Filled By To- cal Dealcr-Postmaster Pagan Re- ceives Congratulatory Letter From Oflicials-Notes About Town.

With the announcement made b. R. o. Clark of East Berlin yesterday afternoon to a Herald reporter that he would not be a candidate for rep. resentative from Berlin to the legis- lature, the talk of the politicians is again centering about who will oc- cupy the legislative seat this coming term.
 Mir. Clark when asked If he would be candidate, said that his business occupies too much of his time for him to interest himself in politics. Mir Clark was mentioned several days ago as a possible candidate from East Berlin along with Arthur Benson, who Is commander of the American Legion post in Berlin. Politicians be- lieve that Berlin and Kensington has had Its say for number of years and that East Berlin should have a chance this year.
 With Mir. Clark presumably out of tho race, Mir. Benson is the only other possible candidate from East Berlin who has been mentioned There is some talk, however, of Ken sington people placing a candidate in the field.
 Earlier in the summer 1t was re- ported that c. F. Lewis and c. w. Stevens would be candidates for the office. Mir. Lewis, when asked, said that he had not considered running for the office and did not believe that he would be an aspirant to the posi- tion. Mir. Stevens has remained si- lent on the question.
 Dening Would Accept.
 Francis Deming of Berlin, who represents the town in the legislature at present, stated yesterday afternoon that if he is nominated at the caucus he will accept the nomination, but he does not plan to make an active campaign for the office.
 Mir. Deming was prime mover in having the legislature grant the city of New Britain the right to change its charter so that Berlin could se cure water from that city. He was also responsible for downing the movement fostered by the New Brit ain Chamber of Commerce for a euage under the railroad bridge in Kensington.
 Coal Shortage in Town.
 It was stated at the home of George Baldwin, Kensington coal dealer. this morning that there has been no coal received in Berlin since April of this wear and that the situation as far as this town Is concerned Is becoming serious.
 The local concern has filed orders with various coal companies but they are not being filled and what coal IS in the bins of the local dealer has been sold for several weeks.
