Secretary Hull is Severely Criticized For Opinion
Reasons Why The Nome Federal bid
 Judged too High

Bids on the construction of the Federal Building scheduled for Nome were opened March 23rd. Three contracting firms had filed bids for the construction of the building. These firms and the amount of their respective bids were as follows:
 Hansen Construction Company, Seattle Washington, $469,000.
 Mcdonald Construction Com pany of St. Louis, Mo-, $5l8,423 Jas. l. Barnes Company. Spring field, Illinois. S526,000.
 The amount of the lowest bid, which was made by the Seattle firm, is more than $l00.000 in ex cess of the funds avail able for construction. The amount set up by the Government for the but.d ing was S425,OO0. However, this figure was the total amount for the building complete with nec- essary equipm ent for the several Federal offices that will occupy the building. After making res ervations for purchases of post office equipment, jail equipment, superintendence of the building and other items not included in construction, plans were drawn for the building to cost approMg- mately s375,OOO, which was the available balance.
 This large discrepancy in the amount of the bids and the esti. mated cost of construction rS be. lieved to be largely due to in creaseS in costs that have taker place since the building was plan ned. That some of these cost. have increased since formal bids were filed by the contracting con panies is indicated by the repor that two of the bidders recently telegraphed the Treasury Depar ment and raised the amount O their bids above that quoted when originally filed. The expli nation for this being that labo' costs had increased 20 per cent cost of materials had risen 15 pc cent, and transportation charge had increased about 10 per cent Delegate Dimond said that th difference in the amount and tha which will be required to proper ly construct the building is s great that there is little likeli hood that plans for construction can be revised down sufffo]entl to bring the cost within the am ount of money now set up fo the project, but expects that wild be necessary to have addi tional funds allotted for the bull ing. The Delegate said that h hoped that funds can be secure soon and that a contract may b | (Continued on Page Three)

PRODUCTION CREDIT
PASSES GOOD YEAR
Meeting Largely Attended
and Directors Reflect
ed; Loaned $215,OOO

The Henderson Production Credit
Association, which serves Granville,
Vance and Warren counties, had a
very successful year in 1896, according
to reports by officers of this farmers
cooperative credit organization sub
mitted at the annual meeting of stock
holders held at Henderson on jan
uary 27.
At the annual meeting, which was
we'll attended, complete and detailed
reports, illustrated by charts, were
given to the stockholders, showing
how much business was done, how
much it cost to run the association,
the distribution of expenses, the net
profits and other interesting data.
Reports were made to the meeting
by T. W. Allen, president of the as
ISOLATION; w. B. Gooding, secretary
treasurer and a talk on the advan-
tage of the cooperative credit system
was made by e. J. Green, a member
of the board of directors.
A talk stressing the important part
being played by the association in
helping agriculture to go forward
was made by j. c. Peed, of Creed
moor.
Ell. Finnell and E. j. Green were
reelected to serve on the board of di-
rectors of the 4 sociation. Other.
members of the board whose terms
did not expire are T. w. Allen, S. N.
Hawks and D. H. Currin.
The reports of the officers showed
that the association made 1926 loans
for $215. 900.
H. L. Gardner, vice president of the
Production Credit Corporation of
Columbia, addressed the meeting He
reviewed the remarkable progress
which has been made by the produc-
ton credit associations in the states
of North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia and Florida.
The increasing number of farmers
availing themselves of the credit ser
vice which the associations offer, he
said, is the best proof of their appTe-
citation of the service. In 1884 the
first year of their operations, the as
sociations made loans totaling &c.
100000; in 1885 they made loans totall-
ing $14,0O0,00O and in 1886 they made
loans totalling nearly $16,00O,0O0.
Through the production credit as
sociations, Mr.. Gardner said, farmers
are able to get money with which to
produce and harvest their crops at
costs as low as those available to
any other industry. The associations,
he said do not lend government
money but discount their paper thro-
ugh the Federal intermediate Credit
Bank which, in turn, secures money
from private investors through the
sale of farm paper.
