FORD HAS MADE
MONEY ATRATE
OF SIPS SECOND
By NEA Service

BY NEA Service
Cleveland-Henry Ford has been
making automobiles for 23 years, and
today his business and personal
wealth is estimated at more than a
billion dollars.
A mathematical shark here has
figured it out that if Henry would
quit work now. convert all his wealth
into one dollar bills, and start count
ing them it would take him 120
years to do the job by counting at
the rate of 81 second.
In other words if Henry had start
ed working for 81 second, S36OO an
hour, it would have taken him 120
years instead Of the 23 to have made
his money, working eight hours d
day.
Take out your watch and watch
the hand tick off second, and ther
think that for every one Of these
seconds that have been licked off in
the 24hour days of the last %
years, approximately $1.25 has been
added to Ford's wealth. And this
does not take into account the
amount of money he has spent.

TRAINER CALLS MERMAID LIAR;
CHARGES CHANNEL SWIMMER WAS
NOT in CONDITION FOR ORDEAL
Replies to Miss Ederes Charge That He Is Responsible For
Her Failure

Brighton, England, Sept. l9.-(R
--Jabez Wolfe, trainer of Miss Ger
trude Ederle, today denied her allie
cations that she was taken from the
water during her recent attempt to
swim the English Channel when she
was still able to go with her effort.
"At the sixth hour Of the swim,'
he said, "Miss Ederle complained Of
a cramp and I begged her to carry
on little longer to see if she would
recover from it. At the eighth hour
she was suffering intense agony,
purely owing to the lack of condition.
After eight hours and As minutes
she collapsed.
II gave no instructions for Helmy,
(the Egyptian swimmer) to touch her,
but from the humane point of view,
as there was risk Of her being
drowned, Helmy went to her aid. I
was standing by in small boat and
Immediately got to her and put the
)ifesaving apparatus on her, as she
was unconscious.
Charges FalsehOOd

WIDE DISSATISFACTION

Washington. d. c., September 10
A psychology Of failureI in Ger
tain sections Of the United States
confronts prohibition enforcement
which indicates growing reaction
against the eighteenth amendment
the report of the Federal Council Of
Churches Of Christ in America
states in its concluding chapter TO-
day.
"When we reach that vague and
elusive factor, the opinion Of the
general public, there is little basis
for anything hut surmise," the re-
port asserts. "lt may be said with
good deal of assurance that many
populous sections of the country
would now reverse the verdict if
they had the chance, but there is
much reason to believe that most of
the states, taken as a whole, would
still vote affirmatively."
Situation Uncertain
The fact that prohibition is still
far from yielding the results that
were hoped for from it does not
warrant the widely current assump-
report holds.
eral government succeeds, the shut
ting off Of the liquor supply at it's
main sources may take the profit out
of the business, break up the organ
ization and reduce the traffic to
comfortable quantities.
There is danger, however, in the
common belief that our failure to
secure through prohibition the So
cial results predicted for it is charg-
able to lax law enforcement, it is
stated.
SEQ Hope
III the new campaign of the fed
eral government succeeds, the shut
ting off Of the liquor supply at it's
main sources may take the profit out
Of the business, break up the organ
ization and reduce the traffic to con-
trollable quantities. On the other
hand, its suppression may ultimate
~ depend upon state and municipal
agencies, in which case, the immedi-
ate future in several states is dark.
There are sections of the country
in which the traffic is likely to con-
tinue until forces of civic organiza-
ton and social education succeed in
developing public opinion strong
enough to modify the habits of that
portion of the population which has
thus far refused to be governed by
the law. The fact which must he
kept constantly in the foreground is
that favorable and encouraging
trend which began several years be-
fore 1920 has been reversed since
that year-temporarly, many be-
lieve. There is no little ground for
hope that we are turning the corner,
but there is no basis for assurance.
"This situation presents an unpre-
cedented challenge to the schools and
the churches. Thus far the delin-
quency of the churches is perhaps
even greater than that of the federal
government. In former years temper
ance education was stressed as part
of the religious educational program.
1t was often Of decidedly inferior
type. to be sure. but the Importance
of temperate living and self-control
was kept continually before our
youth. With the passing of the pro-
hibition laws the task of moral edu-
cation with reference to temperate
living has been all but ignored"

CORN SHOW
FUNDDRIVE
NEARS END
Aim to Raise $500 Among
Local Business Men for
Exhibition

The North Dakota corn show VIZ
be held in Bismarck November 1920
under the auspices Of the Bismarck
assoc iation of commerce. Location
has not yet been determined
The drive to raise approximately
$500 in Bismarck to support the
exhibition will close within the next
week, it was announced today. In
addition to private subscription, the
state show will be supported by $500
appropriated by the legislature and
an equal amount appropriated by the
board Of Burleigh county commits
sioners.
A very good response has been re-
ccived by solicitors seeking funds
for the show, II. p. Goddard. secre-
tary of the association Of commerce,
stated today.
The state corn show is open to
every corn grower in the state. The
show was instituted by the Bismarck
association of commerce three years
ago, and was conducted so success
fully that the state legislature at its
last session gave it official recogni
tion in addition to making grant
of 81 900 for the biennium to support
the show.
Designed to bring out the best re-
suits attained through the produc-
tion Of corn varieties best adapted to
soil and climatic conditions in North
Dakota, the show is expected to en-
courage greater production.
Last year the county championship
cup passed into permanent owner
ship of Sargent county and the show
management has offered another
champi onship cup for competition.
Local merchants have offered prizes
in all classes Of corn grown in the
state.
No entrance fee is required for
entry.
H. p. Goddard is secretary of the
exhibition. George Will is chairman
of the executive committee in charge
of STAGING the corn shnu

GREEN STATES
Bank Deposits Are Being In.
vested in Gilt edge Sccuri-
ties. Holds

Little change in the financial con
ditions in North Dakota are noted by
ID. A. Green. manager Of the Bank
of North Dakota, he said in state
mcnt today.
Many real estate loans arc being
paid and the position Of most farm
ers with regard to the relation Of in
come to debts has materially i'm
proved, Green said.
A slight increase in the demand
for loans is noted from individuals
although the total for the last &c
days, $350,00O. is about $l4O,00O be-
low the amount ordinarily loaned
monthly. Until recently the Bank Of
North Dakota has been loaning at the
rate of $500,0O0 Il month.
ut is ABROAD statement, but
in my opinion North Dakota
farmers will be in better shape
this fall than the farmers Of any
other state in the northwest"
said Green. "Thc reason is that
their debts arc less per capita
and what money Is available goes
farther in paying them Off"
Buy Land
Although some land is being mort
gagged on new purchases, there is nc
prospect of land boom, he said
Land sales will increase somewhat
he said, because much good land
is still available at comparatively
low prices and undoubtedly will at.
tract many who have surplus funds
but the general idea Of land boom
he holds to be remote.
Bankers throughout the state, he
said, apparently have adopted 4
conservative policy for the present
and are loaning comparatively little
money. choosing to invest most o,
their surplus in high-grade sccuri
ties which are fundamentally safe
although the rates Of interest OBJ
taned are low.
"The bankers have their stomach:
full Of risky stuff which offers high
interest rates." he explained "They
now are playing the safe and con
servative game"
Although there are fewer dclin
quencies in loans made by the banl
in the past, he said, because of tn,
superior ability of the borrowers tt
pay, there should be practically NJ
losses from loans now being made
These are negotiated on first mort
gage basis with the bank loanng no
more than 40 per cent Of the vau,
Of the property. If these loans ar,
properly cared for and not allowed t,
get more than two years in arrears
Green said. the bank should be abl,
to collect every penny loaned. to
gether with the interest.

err her noncompliance with my re-
peated efforts to get her to train. 1t
was evident both to the French and
English observers that her training
consisted mainly Of sitting about
and playing the ukelele.
Zone has only to observe the pic
lures Of her collapse in the waters
to see that she was incapable of max
ing any further effort"
On her arrival in New York Fri
day Miss Ederle asserted that she
could have kept on swimming and
that there was no truth in the story
that she collapsed. She added that
Helmy was swimming with her and
that she was going strong wher
Wolfe suddenly shouted, "Grab her."
"Of course" Miss Ederle said, "as
soon as Helmy touched me was dis.
qualified"
Miss Ederle said she did not know
whether she would have gotten across
the channel, but asserted again that
she could have gone farther. She
said she felt sure she could accom-
plish the feat in another try anc
under better weather conditions.

INELIGIBLE

The Bank of North Dakota is not
eligible to carry insurance in the
state fire and tornado insurance
funds. Attorney General George
Shafer held in an opinion today.
ut is my opinion that the state
fire and tornado fund has no author
ity to insure the property Of the
Bank of North Dakota for the rea-
son that such property is not state
property within the meaning of the
law creating that fund.-" the opinion
said.
