HOUSE DOES
WORK WHILE
STORM RACES
Many Bills Are Disposed of
BY Body in Committee of
the Whole
RUE EXPERIE E N G f
Nipped Ears and Hands Make
Many Doubt If Energy
Is Justified

Members of the house of repre-
sentatives accomplished great deal
of work yesterday afternoon in
spite of the storm, but some of the
members were rueing the experience
of battling their way to and from
the capitol. The house session, with
72 members present ended about 4:3O
p. nj. in order to allow members to
board bobsleds for the trip down.
town before dark. Some members
walked the entire distance from the
capitol.
On account of the weather condi-
tions which made it impossible for
many of the legislators to reach the
capitol no final action on any meas
ures were taken by the trump"
session of the house. A number of
committee reports were received
however, and the house sitting as
the committee of the whole argued
out H. B. l41 for strengthening the
farm loan department Of Bank of
North Dakota. This measure was
finally reported out for passage on a
strict party vote of 36 to SO the Non
partisan league members opposing
the bill.
Reasons for the league opposition
were somewhat vague. They seemed
to be summed up by the idea that
someone was trying to slip some-
thing over on somebody, but just
what nobody knew.
Walter Maddox and Frank Vogel
objected to a provision in the bill
to protect the state in cases of early
prepayment of loans. There was no
such provision in the federal farm
loan act they said, and it might tend
to frighten away borrowers.
Rep. Carr Of jamestown who in
troduced the bill pointed out that
the absence of such a provision
might very easily cost he stated a
still the league members were un-
convinced.
May Not Become Law
Although reported out for passage
there appears to- be no possibility
that the measure will become law
because as it amends the Bank Of
North Dakota act which was referred
in 1920 it would require two-thirds
majority in both the house and SEN
ate. There is no chance Of its re-
ceiving this as the league members
are voting along strict party lines.

Chicago, Feb. 14.-Nodern evils
can be cured
Only by getting back to the
spirit of knighthood which reigned
in medieval times!
That's the belief of group of
young men and women here and
they've formed an organization
called "The Knights of the Holy
Grail" to carry out their ideals.
The expressed purpose of thcsor-
ganization is to coax knighthood
back into flower.
Members are not required to
wear cast-iron haberdashery, tilt
a spear as big as a tree-trunk or
ride about Chicago streets on the
conventional milk-white steed.
But they are required to prac-
tice chivalry, develop a spirit of
honor and substitute virtue for
primitive impulses and passions.
Double Standard Dragon
The chief dragon the organiza-
tion will seek to impale on it's
good sword will be the double stan
dard of morality. No more Of that,
say the "knights" and their ladies'.

N.P.'SREGISTER
OPPOSITION TO
ELEVATOR BILL
Members on State Affairs
Committee Say They'll
Oppose Measure
ALSO HOME BUILDERS
Against Repeal of This Act
1O-HOur Day Bill Is
Carried Over

Nonpartisan league members of the
senate state affairs committee for
mally registered their intention to
block the appointment of a board OF
managers for the state owned, state
operated mill and elevator at Grand
Forks if possible, yesterday after
noon. They also took firm stand
against repeal of the Home Building
Association Act.
When the league members in COM
mittee promptly declared their op-
position to the Atkins bill No. $50,
providing for appointment of a board
Of managers for the Grand Forks
mill, little debate followed. The sem
ators frankly agreed the vote woui,,
be along party lines, and a divided
report from the committee will go
before the senate.
"We might as well make the, rec
ord" said Senator Gardiner, Ind.
pendent
81 am willing" remarked Senator
Hamilton, Eonpartisan.
Because a bill taking control of
the mill out of the hands of the In
dustrial Commission would require
two-thirds vote, it was admitted it
could not pass in the face of league
opposition. 1t haA been pointed out,
however, that oH majority vote alone
the Indu strial Commission might be
empowered under the old law to Sc
lect agents whose duties would DC
that of board of managers.
Divide On Repeal Act.
The league senators also voteu
against Senator Bonds bill to re.
peal the Guaranty Fund Commission
act after 1924. Independent sena
ters on the committee favored the
Lynch bill, No. PIT, for liquidation OF
the Home Building association, but
the leaguers were against it.
Senator Bond, explaining the bill
to repeal the Guaranty Fund act af
ter 1924, said that "My idea is tina,
through enactment of the Guaranty
Fund Law we have got the state i,'
pretty deep water. The law contem-
plated that the state would merely
have supervision Of the Guaranty
Fund. But the fact is that many
banks advertised that the state guar
anted their deposits, and the depos
itors believed this. believe the
state is obligated to pay those de
posits. By providing the Guaranty
Fund act will continue only until
1924 time is given bankers and de-
positors to adjust themselves. All
present liabilities would still rest
against the fund"
"Until the last eight or ten years
this state was in good shape" said
Senator Eastgate, Grand Forks. 81

anteeing--if we go ahead like this

Senator Olson, Barnes county, re-
marked the farmers had had tough
conditions like the banks, and for
the same reasons.

lege on what the farmers are max
