"Washington-April 7-Postmast-

Lundquist, Bismarck. n. d."
The appointment came as IA sur
prise locally as it was believed that
the recess domination of HenNy Muir

would be confirmed by the senate.
For some reason Il confirmation was
not given and following fast upon
the heels of this political impasse
comes. the naming of Mr.. Lundquist
who had no political endorse ements
and whose certification by the Civil
Service commission was regarded
solely as a matter of merit only and
in line with the general idea that
promotions in the postal service
should be made from those engaged
actively in the service.
Mr.. Lundquist came to Bismarck in
1911 as postoflce inspector. In 1913,
he was named assistant postmaster
by the late Mrs. +. G. Patterson who
was then postmistress at Bismarck.
Previously, Mr.. Lundquist served
as sheriff in Minnesota for two
terms. Later he was assistant poat-

Guaranty Fund Commission
to Receive Many Applica-

SITUATION IMPROVED
ClOsings Cease and Efforts to
Reopen Banks Increased
Throughout State
SITUATION IMPROVED

'Thc Guaranty Fund Commission
will meet here tomorrow for ses-
sion at which number of applica
tions for reopening of closed banks
in North Dakota will be considered,
Gilbert Semingson, state examiner,
announced today.
The commission, under policy
adopted by it sometime ago, is max
ing a thorough investigation of
every bank which it is sought to
reopen, to assure itself that if the
bank is rcopcned it will render real
service in its community and will
be on solid foundation.
Since the Agricultural Credit Cor
poration was formed and the credit
situation eased in the state, progress
has been made toward the rcopening
Of several banks, bank at Wales
being the first to reopen. Closings
of banks, numerous Il few months
ago, have ceased recently. Officials
grncrally are optimistic over the
banking situation in the immediate
future.
Can Finance Crop
No difficulty is anticipated gen
orally for financial institutions to
finance the 1924 crop in the state.
Most farmers in the state. accord
ing to reports, have an abundance
OF feed for livestock, and most of
them retained sufficient seed for
their operations this year. Increase
in the poultry and dairying business
also has provided funds for many to
meet running expenses until the 1924
crop is harvested.
If the Agricultural Credit Corpor-
alton is able to carry out President
Ioondges recommendation to assist
in the mixed farming move, it is be-
llieved that there will be heavy pur-
chasing of livestock, particularly
dairy cattle, during the spring, by
many farmers throughout the state
Seeding is now under way in most
parts of the state.
