An Important Question


BY Offering a bill to require the
Bank Of North Dakota to pay taxes
on land held by 1t, Rep. Milton Rue
Of Burleigh county has brought the
state legislature face to face with an
issue which is important now and
which may be increasingly so unless
something is done at once.
The issue is not that something
needs to be done but what to do
about 1t. In part 1t also Is a sectional
question. since the land taken off the
tax rolls in the western part Of the
state Is much more extensive than in
the eastern section.
The demand for revision OF the
present situation comes from town.
ships and school districts which have
felt the pinch of the steadily decreas-
ing tax base. They want land FORE
closed or held by the bank to pay
taxes in order that local schools and
local government may survive.
On the other hand action such as
Rue proposes will not react to the
benefit of the Bank of North Dakota.
Its farm loan department is in the
hole now and taxes must be levied to
pay bond interest.
One thing would be done, however,
and that would be to distribute the
burden more equitably. As 1t stands
now the brunt Of a difficult situa-
ton is being borne by the farmer.
The bank has made no foreclosures in
city taxing districts.

The Last Forsyte
(MinneapoliS Tribune)

The death of John Galsworthy so
close upon the awarding Of the Nobel
prize for literature to him finds his
life and work the subject Of more Sc
rious consideration than might other
wise have been the case. AS far as
it IS possible for contemporary criti-
cism to speak authoritatively, John
Galsworthy was great novelist, the
author Of several books that today
seem certain to enjoy more than a
momentary audience. Although Gals
worthy was not the type of writer
whose work was likely to engender
the enthusiasm which makes and
breaks best sellers, his audience was
appreciative and steady. Like his
work and his characters, Galsworthy's
audiences were sedate people whose
literary tastes were no longer subject
to serious changes.
Although Mr.. Galsworthy was al
most as thoroughly English as any
Of his famous Forsytes, his popularity
was as great in this country as 1t
was in his native land. That he UNI
derstood Americans little better
than most Of his contemporaries on
the other side Of the Atlantic may
account for this fact, In part at least,
but 1t Is no less likely that in subject
matter and characterization his now
els were dealing with traits that ap-
pealed to certain groups in America
almost as much as they did to the
native Englishman. Whether Mr..

A Possible Outcome

Though the legislatures Of this and
other states struggle with foreclosure
and finance problems and the voice
Of the stricken agricultural west rings
loud in Washington, 1t Is impossible
for anyone to say what the upshot
will be.
To most persons it is obvious that
any real relief must come from basic
adjustments through action at WASH
ington. State legislatures can help
but most Of their remedies are mere
palliatives. The job, if it is to be
done, must be given national treat
ment.
It seems obvious that we shall have
some sort Of currency initiation in
the near future. II not from this
congress. then from the one which
takes office next month and which
will meet In April.
It Is equally obvious that some
sort Of farm refinanoe proposal will
be passed. Recent actions of insur.
ance companies in Withholding FORE
closure actions would seem to indicate
that they, a. well . the farmer. are
counting On It.

Whittier AWAY?

Because of the times, the discus
sion about Technocracy, the obvious
Inequalities and Embellishments UNI
der which we labor, practically every
one has given thought to the subject
OF what the future holds.
Most of us view the issue from our
own personal standpoint: that Of q
roof over our heads, bread and butter,
and shoes for the children.
Few can take the philosophical
view, and pessimism is more rampant
than optimism. There is much talk,
some of 1t unwise, and always there
is the tendency to blame someone
else for our troubles, whereas the man
accused may be quite as innocent as
we are.
The radical wants to change or
tear down everything. The conserva-
tive wants to change nothing. The
bulk Of the people are caught be-
tween the upper and neither mill
stones Of opinion, not knowing which
way to turn, although advocates OF
change are clearly In the majority
now.
With this ebb and flow going on
about us, it is refreshing to hear the
voice Of a man who takes the long
time view.
In recent interview John Dewey,
educator and philosopher. said: II
have no doubt that the capitalist
system will disappear in time as have
other Socio-economic systems. I see
no signs Of its immediate total COL
lapse in the sense Of its being re-
placed by a definitely different sys-
tenn. It has many roots or bulwarks
and I expect to see these disappear
or be taken over one by one and not
In a sensational wholesale way
Added to this opinion is that of
Henry Ford who feels that the present
difficult times are merely the FORE
runner of better day. They are
necessary, in his view, to bring about
the adjustments which will correct
inequalities. In fact the motor maker
is almost Pollyannaish in his view
Of the future, which he regrets he will
not live to see.
That both Of these men are at least
partly correct In their view is DEM
orstrated by current conditions. Not
in many years have so many people
given the same intense thought to
the same subject as is the case to-
day. In many cases they are acting,
not always with intelligence or dis
erection, but with whole souled pur-
pose to improve conditions. Eventually
these efforts will succeed. The ''bul-
warks" are going one by one, for bet
ter or for worse.
