successfully only as a rural credit
bank, and that as .oon as practicable
all Of it's activies, except making
farm loans, should cease" That dec
laration is in accordance with the
view which the Independents have
entertained with respect to the plbp
err functions that the Bank Of North
Dakota should perform since the re-
call election. Rural credit loans
should be made exclusively from,
funds derived from the sale Of rural
credit bonds, and cannot, in the ma
ture of things, be made from funds
raised by taxation for governmental
purposes. In South Dakota where
State Rural Credit Department is in
operation, more than thirty millions
of farm loans have been made by that
department, by the sale Of rural
credit bonds, without the use of any
the use of deposits, public or private.
The Federal Land Bank, which is the
biggest and most successful farm loan
agency in the United States, makes
farm loans without the use of public
funds and without accepting deposits
of any kind, public or private. The
Bank of North Dakota has no funds
available with which to finance either
banks or private business. Two mil
lion dollars. of it's capital was frozen
in insolvent banks and other insti-
tutions under the Cathro administra-
ton, and is not available for use.
The public funds on deposit there
with placed therein by the State
Treasurer and the Treasurers Of coun-
ties, school districts, etc, cannot, in
the nature of th ngs, be used for
commercial or ordinary banking pur-
poses, because the Bank must at all
times, hold such funds ready to pay
out on the order of the Treasurers of
the bodies to which such funds be-
long. Therefore, it is clear, on the
face of the proposition, that the only
real and important service that this
Bank can perform for the people of
the State of North Dakota, which
private banks cannot perform, is to
function as a rural credit bank. Any
other function sought to be perform
ed by using the public funds on de-
post therein, by ours or any other
management, cannot help but bring
the Bank, and through the Bank, the
State, to financial grief, and result in
financial choas, and cause incalcul-
able damage"

American Teamwork and
cyclonic Riding Far Su-
perior to Invaders

NEW YORK. Sept. 17.-Polo au.
thorities today were united in ex-
pressing the opinion that the inter.
national cup would remain in this
country indefinitely, following Amer.
ica's successful defense of the
trophy eliminating in its IL to 5
defeat of the invading British in
the second match Of the series. The
belief was expressed that England
would have to adopt American
methods Of play before 1t could hope
to cope with tho cyclonic riding
and biting tactics employed by the
defenders. It also was maintained
that greater specialization in team
organization and development must
be made by the British.
The latter sustained the worse de.
feat in the history of the series by
losing the opening match, 16 to 5.
They did better yesterday, but
nevertheless left no doubt that they
were a combination far inferior to
the Americans.
Only Luis L. Lacey, their captain
and back, seemed able to play the
game according tn American stand
ards. He learned his polo in the
Argentine, however, and in previous
matches here showed that he IA
vored the American style.

FRANK CHANCE
HAD VARIED
CAREER
Peerless Leader Was One Of
BasebaIIs Most CoIorfuI
Figures

The late Frank Chance was one
of the most colorful players in base:
bail. He earned his first step to
fame when he led the Chicago Cubs
TO three straight remnants in
1906, '07 and '0S, in which time
he won two world series titles,
when he beat the Tigers in 1907
and 1908. He lost to the Sox in
1906, but this surprising defeat by
the then called Hitless Wonders
did not dim his reputation.
His aggressive tactics on the
field, his ability to play first base
and hit hard and timely, beside
being a forceful leader of men, made
Chance a leader In baseball. The
Cubs great machine, before it was
smashed by the Athletics in 1909,
was one Of the most powerful base.

Johnny Evers, Joe Tinker, Frank
Schulte, Miner Brown, Jimmy
Sheckard, Jack Pfiester, Holman
and others.
Later he was released by Charley
Murphy, owner Of the Cubs, be.
cause they could not agree, and he
took up the management of the
New York Yankees. Chance took
charge of a tail-end club, and when
he failed to get results resigned. He
went to the coast and entered minor
league ball out there. Then he
came back to the American League
to lead the Red Sox last year, being
released when Jack Quinn bought
out Frazee last winter.
Early in 1924 Charlie Comiskey
signed Chance to lead the White
Sox, but he was too i'll to Join
the club and had to turn over the
job to Johnny Evers.
