Senator Borah expressed full sym

he declared, "is a teeming phrase sug
gesting health and happiness and

II am pleased to speak" he said, "in
an atmosphere where reference to our

rude and provincial"
Before launching into his discussion
of the domestic problems Senator
Borah detailed the aid that has been
given by the United States to the
Nations of the world.
THE philanthropy of the American
people from the beginning of the
Government, and especially OF late
years" he said, has no parallel in
history After furnishing the men
and the means which made possible
the winning of tho war. TOR which
service we claimed neither annexa-
tions nor reparations; after, through
the Dawes plan, lessening the deadly
and destructive grip of the Versailles
treaty which Eurone in a mad hour
fastened upon her own life; after all
this we are lectured day by day and
week after week from abroad and at
home as to our duty to other nations
Whatever we owe elsewhere, our
first and highest obligation Is mere IN
America. Our first concern is our own
people.

"Peace will not be secured by sur
rendering our own vital interests or oy
surrendering our heirlooms or inoe-
pendence and complete freedom OF ac-
ton. There are international obliga-
tions resting upon US and which we have
never and never will disown. But when
internationalism is pushed so Tar as 10
disparage or seek to undermine that
sound nationalisrn upon which all civih-
cation rests so far as to traduce loyalty
to government and to slur patriotism, IL
then becomes a deadly menace to be
fought every inch Of its way and de-
nounced from the doorstep or every
American home. The men who organ
ICED this Republic, who have built here
a Nation of commanding influence and
power, were intense nationalists. They
believed in America. And the men who
will preserve this Republic, who Will
lead our people to yet higher and nooler
service, will be intense, nationalists-
they also will believe in America.
The part we are to play in inter-
national affairs may be matter of
debate, and the future alone can de-
termne. But whatever that part may
be. II will be effective, il will be
fruitful to humanity and advantage

that we give strength and character

just in proportion that we conserve

"One thing more, some preachers

APPLE INSPECTIONS

Mr.. Derickson said:
we are making a supreme effort
to encourage our growers and shin
pers to have their apples inspected,
for this establishes a standard grade
and brings a premium on the market
and tends to stabilize prices. In
view OF the reported shortage of
early apples in other states. it is be-
lieVed that, if our growers and shin
pers will maintain a good grade, our
prices should hold firm throughout
the season."
Prices for apples is holding spIen-
didly, backed by this U. S. Guaran-
tee. For No. 1 U. S. stock the price
ranged last week from $1.75 to S2.1O
bushel. For very small apples and
unclassifed the price was 81 a
bushel.
"a greater number of our growers
and shippers, both large and small.
are taking advantage of our inspec-
tion service this year than ever be-
FORE" said Mr.. Derickson. "They are
anxious to grade and pack properly
so as to find ready sale for their
apples at the highest market prices.
They also realize that a car of ap-
pies that has been officially inspect
ed will bring premium and sell
quicker after it arrives at the re-

The largest per capita bonded debt

the largest per capita debt of any
State in the Union. The bank study
says that South Dakota's per capita
debt in 1922 was $75.O2, and today
it is $93.95, or nearly six times as
great as the national per capital
debt.
Oregon stands second, with a debt
of S72 per capita; North Carolina
third, with $38.87; Delaware fourth,
with $36.76; North Dakota fifth, with
