|BANK OF n. D. WILL.
ENHANCE NUMBER
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Will Secure Funds Through
Federal Land Bank and
Land Loan Commissioner

The Bank of North Dakota prob
ably will refinance a number OF its
loans through the federal land bank
and the land bank commissioner, ac-
cording to Carl w. Lewis, head of
the real estate loan department of
the bank. This can only be done
on mortgages that have been fore
closed after July /, 1881. The bank
will have to wait for an appraisal
by the government agencies and the
loans will hinge to great extent
upon the values that are placed up
en- the lands by the government.
The bank Is not making any new
loans to farmers at the present time,
Lewis said, but is completing loans
that have been approved in the past.
Several things are responsible for
the banks action, one being the fact
that the market for real estate bonds
has not been good for more than q
year. Last year the bank loaned ST.
100000 on first mortgages but when
it came time to sell bonds to finance
the loans it found no buyers. The
loans have to be completed and the
mortgages on file before bonds can
be sold, the mortgages being the COL
lateral for the bonds. AS result the
bank has its own money tied up In
this land. Another reason for the
fact that loans are not being made
at present is that the federal land
bank and the land loan commission
err under the Emergency Farm Mort
gage act Of 1888 are able to make
loans at lower rate of interest than
the Bank OF North Dakota.
Too Much Competition
Bank OF North Dakota loans carry
an interest rate of from to $40
depending on the series and bids the
state was able to secure on real
estate bonds. The federal land bank
can now make loans at 4AT for a
five-year loan, and the land bank
commissioner can make loans at a
rate Of interest that cannot exceed
SO. The result apparently Is that
the Bank of North Dakota is, tenn
porarily at least. out Of the loaning
business.
Loans made by the Bank Of North
Dakota amortize in approximately "a
years and the federal land bank
loans in approximately "a years. The
loans made by the land loan COM
missioner can be made for as long
period as 40 years.
According to information received
by the Bank of North Dakota, the
land loan commissioner can take q
second mortgage on lands upon
which the federal land bank holds a
first mortgage.
AS an illustration Of the amount
that can be secured by a loan from
the government, Lewis cited a loan
on a half section Of land valued at
$50 per acre, with buildings having
an insured value of $4,000. The fed
eral land bank can make loan OF
s., 10000 or so per cent of the value
of the land and can make a loan OF
5000 or 20 per cent Of the value OF
the buildings, total of $4,000
The land bank commissioner would
loan on a basis Of a IS per cent
valuation of the land or on a value
Of $4,000. He would then deduct
the amount of the loan given to the
federal land bank OF $4,000, which
would leave a balance OF 81 800 0C
which would represent the maximum
amount Of the second mortgage o.

The Oklahoman had planned to fly

At the heart of the plan were cam

Contract Bridge

South each mentioning a three
card suit. South bid three spades
to make a constructive bid over her
partners three hearts.
If she jumped to five hearts,
North might simply gamble and go
to six hearts, so she took the slower
and Surer method, making a con-
structive bid of three spades.
North's bid of four diamonds was
purely a slam try, and with the in
formation that North held some
thing in diamonds, South immedi-
ately went to six hearts.
WEST opened the four of dia-
W monds and the declarer took
the f1nesse. East won the trick with
the king and then shifted to the
deuce of spades, which the declarer
won with the king. The declarer
next played the ace and queen of
hearts, West diScarding a small dia-
mond on rhe second heart.
Declarer continued with the deuce
of hearts and West discarded the
three of clubs, dummy winning the
trick with the king, and East's jack
dropping.
Declarer cashed the ace and
queen of diamonds in dummy, dis
carding a losing club from her own
hand The jack of spades was re-
turned, East playing low. But South
went right up with the ace and
then played the ten of hearts. West
dropped the ten of diamonds and
East let go a club.
Then South played the five of
hearts and West was squeezed. He
could not let go of the queen of
spades, or dummy's ten would be
good. so he had to drop the five Of
clubs. Declarer discarded the ten
of spades from dummy and then
played to the ace of clubs, drop
ping Vests jack.
The ten of clubs was played
West played the queen, dummy won
the trick with the king, and the
nine of clubs was good for the last
trick.

STATE TO END
CASE IN MASON
TRIAL MONDAY
Display of Arsenal to Be
Final Move in Jones'
Staying Hearing.
BIZ Times Special

BIZ ines Special
NOBLESvILLE, Ind. Dec. a.
Opening of court Monday in the
trial of William Mason, charged
with the Staying of Indianapolis Po-
lice Sergeant Lester Jones, will find
the state closing its case with the
introduction of numerous state ex-
hibits
Machine guns, shotguns and pis-
tolls, alleged to have been used in
the Staying, will form the major
portion of the exhibits introduced.
The defense case will attempt to
show that Mason was framed" by
the alleged bandit gang and was not
at the scene of the holdup.
The science of balliSticS was used
as an evidence link in the states
case on Friday when Arch Ball, bal
listicS expert of the indianapolis po
lice department. testified to shells
found on the garage floor of the
Peoples Motor Coach Company.
Claims Bullets Same
Ball said a bullet found in the
garage was identical with a bullet
fired from an automobile pistol
found at MaSon'S side when he was
captured with other members of
the alleged Staying gang near En-
LANCER, KY.
He also testified that shotgun
shell fired during the holdup of the
Capitol Diaries, Inc, indianapolis,
was identical to shells used in a
shotgun which the state alleges was
used in both the coach company
holdup and the dairy robbery.
Mason previously had been iden-
titled, police say, as one of the
Capitol Dairy bandits.
Floyd Christian, defense attorney,
interposed numerous objections to
Balls testimony.
Christian moved that all of Balls
testimony be stricken from the roc
ord, arguing that the science of
ballisticS is not recognized in In
diana. Circuit Judge Fred Hines
overruled the motion.
Police Identify Fingerprints
Christian sought to show that all
f1rearm markings are alike because
they are fashioned by automatic
machines. Ball declared that the
markings of no two weapons are
Identical.
Other state witnesses closing the
case at yesterdays court session
were Thomas A. Laffey of the Chi
cago police bureau of identification;
Walter T. Dempsey of the Dayton
(O) police bureau of identification:
Albert G.. Perrott, head of the In
dianapolis police bureau of iden-
tif1cation; Detective George Meul-
Ter of the indianapolis police de-
partment; Barrett M. Ball, Indian
polls policeman; Clarence Bert,
Capitol Diaries employe; w. G. Ora
ham, Franklin (O) marshal; De-
tective Morris Corbin of the In
dianapolis police department, and
Stanley Myers, indianapolis garage
mechanic.
Perrott, Laffey and Dempsey
testified that f1ngerprintS found on
a tag attached to a money sack,
found in the coach companys gar
age, were those of Ernest (Red)
Gibberson, one of the alleged mem
bers of the bandit gang. Gibber-
son awaits trial on murder charge.
