WOULD BAR issues
/ OF MORE n. D. BONDS
Fowler Offers Bill to Restrict
Issuance Of Additional
Securities

Issuance OF additional North Da-
kota real estate series bonds, now to-
falling approximately $50, 000. 900,
would be prohibited under bill In
troduced in the senate Saturday by
A. w. Fowler Of Cass county.
Under the bill issuance Of bonds
would cease after covering mortgages
the Bank Of North Dakota has on
hand unassigned to the state treas
urer.
The measure provides for diverting
81 900 900 q year from the motor We
hicle and gasoline tax collections for
use In making bond interest payments
on outstanding bonds.
Setting aside $4,000 q year for the
state bridge fund would be terminated
BY the proposed law and the unobli-
gated money now In this fund would
b transferred.
Fowler proposes that 500, 900 q year
from the motor vehicle registration
fund and 100000 from the gasoline
tax collections be transferred to the
real estate bond interest payment
fund.
The prohibition Of the issuance of
more bonds, Fowler said, Is advanced
On the theory that the state has gone
far enough with its program Of real
estate loans and that we should pro-
coed no further. but should liquidate
the mortgages held rs security for the
bonds - rapidly as possible, with due
regard to the conditions existing" He
would pay off real estate series bonds
from such liquidation and from tax
levies Is may be necessary.
Sees Wholesome Effect

that no further bonds viii be issued

the market value Of our outstanding

lions, he proposes as "a direct replace
ment Of moneys to relieve the heavy
burden Of taxation now resting upon
the general taxpayer"
Fowler proposes diversion be made
into the real estate bond interest pay.
ment fund rather than into the gen
eral fund because 1T Is believed that
by 20 doing the credit Of the state
will be materially strengthened and
the market for its outstanding bonds
viii be very much helped"
Expressing regret that his plan will
result in curtailment Of the highway
program, Fowler said that everything
within reason must be done to tighten
our tax burden"
II am advised" he said. that this
diversion will still leave sufficient
funds for proper maintenance Of our
present highway system and will also
permit Of some new work In the way
Of regraveling and new crawling"

Child LABOR BILL IS
OFFERED IN SENATE
Mclean-county Scion Proposes
! to Revive forgotten Con-
stitutional Change

Designed to renew national inter.
est In the proposed amendment to
the federal constitution to prohibit,
child labor, q concurrent resolution
was introduced in the North Dakota
senate Saturday to ratify the almost
forgotten amendment.
Sen. E. G. Stucke of Mclean coun-
ty, author Of the ratification resolu-
ton, said while states generally have
shown q lack of interest in the pro-
posed amendment since it was
launched in 1924, the proposal should
be given renewed consideration in the
light OF present economic conditions
The amendment, to empower con-
gress to limit labor of persons under
IL years OF age, was rejected by the
North Dakota legislature in 1925.
number OF states have rejected or
\ failed to act on 1t. while it has been
! ratified by only a few.
Recently congressional clerks in
Washington We're quoted as saying
the amendment is floating around
somewhere, but we can't tell where.
More than ever before is there a
real need for the approval of the
child-labor amendment" Stucke said.
Because of economic conditi n S
there are now being proposed meas
ures preventing employment OF mar
rted women and bills on nepotism.
It would appear the measure pro-
hibiting child labor would be even
more necessary.
"Tvhe bourbon southern Statoc ard
reactionary states are no doubt
against such a proposition. Human
rights have too long been submerged
and 1t is high time the human ele-
ment should be considered"
Ratification must be given the
amendment by three fourths of the
states before it becomes part of
the constitution. There Is no require
ment that 1t be ratified within a
specified time
