BANKERS AIM
TO MAKE n. D.
BANKS STRONG
Northeast Group Urges Reg
ulati0n of All New
Institutions

Grafton, N. D., May l4.-Regula-
ton Of the establishment of new
banks in North Dakota and the con-
solidation Of banks now existing
with the hope of building up strong
er banking institutions were stressed
in the resolutions passed by the
bankers of the northeastern district
of the state at their annual conven-
ton held here yesterday afternoon.
"We commend the attitude of the
state guaranty fund commission in
its efforts to regulate the institution
of new banks in this state, and it's
stand towards the refusal to grant
certificates of admission to banks
where sound banking policy would
indicate that there was neither the
necessity nor the advisability of
their establishment.
"We recommend that this group
appoint committee Of five members
to consider and assist in the consoli-
dation among banks of this group
with the help of building up in
creasingly stronger banking institu-
tions throughout the northeastern
group" the resolutions declare.
J.. R. Carley of Grand Forks was
chairman of the resolutions commit
tee.
A generally optimistic view of the
business outlook in general and the
prospects for the northwest in par
ticular was indicated in the address
Of J. H. Lyford of Fairdale, the re-
tiring president of the group.
p. E. Johnson of Petersburg was
unanimously elected president of the
northeastern group. Other officers
named were: A. McConville. Graf
ton, vice president; o. H. Lindquist,
Adams, secretary-treasurer; J. H
Rain. Langdon, district member OF

HENRY FORD.
TO BUY SHIPS
OF US. BOARD
Automobile Manufacturer To
Use Some Vessels on
Great Lakes
WOULD SCRAP OTHERS
Matter Of Sale of Boats
Will Not Be Cleared
Up For Months

Washington, d. c., May l4.-It was
announced today by the shipping
board that Henry Ford will buy 400
ships, said several members Of the
board, although they were not fully
informed as to the details.
Most of these ships will be used in
commerce, and the rest will be
scrapped. Shipping board men and
owners are interested in the pro-
position. They assume that Mr.. Ford
will use the ships for Great Lakes
traffic The price presents the pro-
blem.
T. V. O'Connor, chairman of the
shipping board, is quoted as asking
Ford to take over 200 ships in his
original suggestion. However. when
Ford informed him that he would
only buy the ships to scrap them for
junk, O'Connor suggested that he
buy all 400, as it would not cost
much more to contruct dismantling
apparatus to handle the 400 ships
than it would the lesser number.
Ford agreed to this, saying that he
might retain from 10 to 80 of the
ships for use by Ford industries. If
any ships were put in operation by
Ford, they would be reconditioned
and equipped as oil burners, the
article states.
Despite the tentative agreement
the matter of the sale of the ships to
Ford will not be cleared up for sew.
eral months, it is estimated. The
shipping board has been wary OF
making any agreement heretofore, as
it felt if the ships were sold abroad
to be scrapped, that promise might
be broken and the ships might re.
appear under foreign flags in compe.
tition with American ships.

Of Britain's trade outlook was ex-
pressed by Sir Robert Horne at a re-
cent dinner Of the British Overseas
Banks Association. He said he had
just come back from journey
abroad, which had taken some
months, and he was of the opinion
that we are in q worse position to-
day than we we're six months ago,
and that was bad enough. II we look
at the staple trades Of the country
we cannot help having a telling Of
anxiety and apprehension as to the
future"
Sir Robert referred to the state of
the shipbuilding. coal. heavy steel,
woolen and cotton trades. and said it
was his deliberate belief that every
section Of society had to combine to
lind some solution Of the problem,
otherwise there was no hope for the

THE GREAT SURPRISE OF
 BUSTER BEAR

Buster Bear was just wondering about after the storm, the great storm which had blown down so many trees in the Green Forest and done so much damage. He wasn't bound for any place in particular. 1 He was out 10 see the sights, inst as boys and girls like to go out and idly and it was just by chance that at last he found himself over near the big tree in which Busy Bee and her friends had their store of honey, | the tree he hadn't been able to tear open or push over.
 When he found himself near that i tree he shuffled over to longingly look ID at that little round entrance, the knothole where the bees went in and out. He did it from force of habit. For some time that had been the regular thing to do whenever he i came that way. So he sat up and looked up and his mouth began to water before he really saw anything at all Then such surprise as Bus ter Bear got! My, my. my such a surprise. He Winked and he blink ed and he rubbed his eyes, and still he couldn't believe that he saw what | he knew he did see.
 What was it? IL was great change in that tree. It didn't seem as if it could be the same tree. Something had happened to it, Something had happened to it in the great storm. It had been struck by ligh nins and torn right open. A great piece of it lay on the ground. Buster went over 10 if. Some pieces of honeycomb full Of honey were still Clinging to it. and around 1t and crawling over if. were bees and bees and bees, Buster didn't pay any at. tention 10 those bees he just gobhled that honeycomb. bees and all. like the greediest little boy that ever lived. Pees stung him but he didn't know if. He couldn't think of but
 one thing at a time and that onf
 thing was how good that honey did taste. Ii didn't take Buster long tC eat all there was on the ground
 Then he looked up in that tree.

1 there! The lightning had split that hollow wide open and Buster could get his whole head in there.
 The bees settled on him in cloud
 But it wasn't easy to crawl down through his long hair, and when they did get down through it his skin was tough Apparently Buster didn't know any bees were there. He would plunge his head in and get a mouthful of comb dripping with honey and then gulp it down as fast as he could. Such sight as his face was. He was smearcd with honey from behind his cars to the tip of his nose, It was running down his black coat, When he couldn't reach with his mouth he would thrust long arm down and scoop out a big pawful. Such a feast! Tho best part of it was there YVES actually more than he
