New England, N. D.. May l3.-De.
Claring that North Dakota's pllenom-
enal change to balanced production
is going forward without interruption,
B. e. Groom, of the Greater North
Dakota association, told bankers Of
southwestern North Dakota at their
group meeting here today that the
next offensive in this direction must
be directed toward tenant farmers.
He viewed the progress to date. pay.
ing tribute 10 the many cooperating
agencies and outlining the various
farm development promotion CAM
paigns sponsored by he Greater
North Dakota association, and asked
the assistance of the bankers In the
associations campaign to speed up
land sales to local tenants as well a
new settlers from other states.
The meeting was the opening Of one
Of the state banking districts and
embraced the bankers OF the west end
of the territory. Speakers included

Speedy Sales Encouraged
"Since its organization" Mr.. Groom
declared, "the association has con-
tinued its advertising campaign both
within and without the state to speed
up land sales. It has devoted great
effort to farm development work but
has held it's effort to speed up land
sales entirely justified because tenant
farmers as rule are not making the
progress owner operators are making
Some results toward better farming
are shown by tenants. especially
where owners are assisting In live
stock development. but In the main
the tenant farmer Is not moving for
ward as rapidly as the general trend
throughout the state demands. We
are convinced that toward this class
must be directed the next offensive. y
Carrying out this idea. Mr.. Groom
sought suggestions from the bankers
in the preparation Of land cropping
and sales contract which the associ-
alton Is working out and wishes to
popularize. It is the intention, he de-
clared, to seek similar assistance from
other group meetings Of bankers dur
