states which are in trouble now. but
| don't see that there is much we can
do to help them Sorlie said. "The
nation laughed at US when we were
in trouble but now the situation IS
reversed"
The fact that North Dakota was IN
the throes Of a political upheaval dur.
ing the period of its greatest period
of economic stress really enabled 1t
to make a quicker Comeback than
ordinarily would have been the case.
Sorlie said. The reason was that
bankers were reluctant to loan money
freely in North Dakota during the
postwar boom period when money
was cheap. 1--WE didn't get so many
of those 30 cent dollars which later
had to be paid back in dollars that
were worth 100 cents Sorlie said.
