Chain INDUSTRY IS
FLAYED BY BRANT
IN RADIO ADDRESS
Wealth Being Concentrated in
Hands Of Few, Says Nom
partisan Candidate

Community life is threatened by
the concentration Of wealth in the
hands Of a few, E. H. Brant, Repub-
lican candidate for the gubernstorial
nomination, said in a radio address
here Tuesday night.
The program Of state operated en-
terprises in North Dakota has been
justified by developments in recent
years, Brant said. He opposed q COM
mission form Of management for the
state mill and elevator and endorsed
the work Of the Bank Of North Da-
kota.
I'VE have a very good example," he
said. "of the way money is being
drained out Of the various communi-
ties Of this country and ACCOMPLISHING
in the great centers by the operation
Of the chain industrial systems
IT these industries are allowed to
continue to develop at the present
rate, 1t will be but a few years when
all Of the business Of the country will
be supplanted by the chain system,
which will mean that our community
life will be something Of the past.
We are threatened with absolute mo-
nopoly, concentrated in the hands Of
a few.
Realized Disadvantage
"Years ago the people Of this state,
more especially the farmers and
workers. realized that they were not
accorded an equal opportunity with
industrial interests. Subsequent de-
velopments have proved their FORE
sight and justified their action In
committing themselves to q limited
program Of state operated enterprises.
Time is proving that we are eco
nomically sound in " contention.
There Is no need for me to remind
the people OF the state Of the relent-
less fight waged against the estab-
lishment of enterprises sponsored by
a majority of the citizens Of this
state. Our opponents failed in their
attempt to prevent the establishment
Of these industries but, after falling
in doing this, were they willing to aid
or assist In the successful operation
Of such institutions? No. And their
record will prove that they were not.
The records will also prove that If
they could have been in absolute con-
troll OF the state administration and
legislative body that the mill and ele-
vator would have been disposed Of
and the key turned in the door Of
the Bank Of North Dakota. They
