tally burdensome." The value OF
land and buildings on Fifth Dis
trict farms is now estimated a.
about $50 billion, figure which
doubles the value on January /
1915 when the low point was re
ached on farm-mortgage indebted
ress. If debt is related to the
value of land and building, the
Bank said, at is found that in 1916
farm real estate-on an overall
basis-was encountered for about
per cent. of its value. On Janu-
airy 1, 1862, the corresponding fig
IRE was 6 er cent.
Short Term Debt
At the same time, the short term
debt of farmers has risen rapid y
over the last year. On January
/, 1852, these debts are reported
by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics to have reached a new
rlgh of about S7.3 billion Tor the
country, excluding loans made or
guaranteed by the Commodity
Credit Corporation. This repre-
sents an increase of about 10 per
cent. over the January l, 1851 fig
ure.
While complete data on the
short term debts of the Fifth Dis
irict farmers is not yet available,
the Reserve Banks said that short
term loans of the Fifth District
hanks were $75 million, or 7 per
cent. higher, January /, 1852 than
4 year ago and loans of Production
Credit Associations in the five
States totaled $50 million, IL per
cent. above those of last year.
In light of current statistics, the
Reserve Bank said "it is to be
hoped that farmers in this area
who are rather heavily in deb.
will allocate a sizable share of
their 1852 incomes to getting their
financial house in ORDER" The

in total mortgage debt among the
five states which make up the
Fifth District States.
Rising Trend
For the contry as a whole, last
year was the sixth consecutive
year in which farm-mortgage debt
had risen. The total mortgage debt
If $6.3 billion was 8 per cent
larger than year earlier but was
still substantially below the peak
of January l., 1923, when farm
mortgage debt totaled $10.8 billion
throughout the country.
Nationally, farm-mortgage re-
corded during 1851 totaled $1.8
billions or Z per cent. more than in
1850 and all lender groups, except
banks, shared in the increase.
Banks loaned 8 per cent. less on
farm real estate last year than
they had loaned in the previous
year, but during the same period
their total volume of farm mort
cages increased about A per cent,
the Federal Reserve Bank report
ed.
In Fifth District States, COM

loans increased to $3.50 million, or
about ! per cent. above the level

Father And Son
In Same Freak
Skiing Accident

There probably are few house
wives who were more fully aware
of the meaning of the term skier
widow than Mrs. Ray Lundberg
was last week.
The weekend ski-ca sualty list
took two members of Mrs. Lund-
berg's family "out of circulation"
They are her husband, Ray, A, a
paper salesman, and a son, Ted,
l6, University of Washington
student
The father and son We're injur-
ed exactly the same way, taking
spills when they hit sitzmarEs in
the snow. Both suffered fractured
right ankles. Both wound up in
the same room i'm Providence Hos
pital, Seattle.
The son was injured Saturday,
Feb. 8, at Stampede Pass. The ia
Their was injured the following
Sunday at Stevens Pass. The moth
er learned about both of the cas-
ualties within Is minutes Sunday,
when her son returned to Seattle
by train just after her husband
was brought nome by friends.
In the hospital, where the ski
ers We're being chided good natur-
eddy, the elder Lundberg checked
a little as he explained how his
wife had learned the worst"
I'd only Teen home about Is
minutes and had broken the news
to her as gently as could when
the telephone rang" Lundberg
said.
Il heard her answer and then all
of a sudden she cried oh, no! Not
YOU too. Your father just came
in with a broken ankle"
Ted had telephoned his mothe,
to ask her to pick him up at the
station.

different picture. She has a new
faith in America, just by meeting
the people, she says.
II feel it," she says, without
stating exactly what, but it's hard
to put into words.
Otherwise, words don't fail her
in good Kings English. And it
helps her get around" such as at
the University of Washington's
drama department. She was told
in Norway that the most interest
ing theater work in the u. S. was
to be found at the Universities.
Seattle's great institution bears
out the point, she feels. Penthouse
theater, with it's circular rows of
seats around a "circus ring and
Showboat Theater impressed her.
But above all, she was impressed
by the drama school as such.
Imagine if 1 could have studied
drama like that in younger years!
In Norway there isn't one drama
school, not one."
Norway's active theater life cas-
lily makes up for that deficiency
however. There are five stage and
two revue theaters with another,
combination of the two, slated
to open, all in Oslo. NOr,yay's cap
ital has about 100000 inhabitants,
while Seattle with 100000 popula-
ton, hasn't one professional legit-
innate theater. Two of OslO's the
aters are state-supported.
AS child, Mrs. Bang joined
kids in her neighborhcod in put
ting on plays based on folk tales
of Asbjornsen and Moe in attics.
During the war she played Nora
in Ibsens The Doll House, an
amateur production. 1t brought
her jobs with Oslo's theaters after
the war and she has been busy
ever since. She is married to an
actor, and has daughter, two
and half years old. American
plays are popular over there she
says, and personally she liked
Death of a Salesman" the best.
Compared to Hollywood, Nor
ways movie production is infini-
tesimal, something like three or
four films last year. Mrs Bang
has appeared in three Morse NOV
les, including "Englandsfarerne,"
the story of II men and one wom-
an (Mrs. Bang trying to escape
to England during the war. The
film was shown in Seattle.
When she returns to Norway
in month or so, she'll take back
with her a new sense of Americas
theatrical Importance, after what
she has seen over here. But AM
erican interests already flourish
in the family. Her father put up
the first self-service grocery store
in Oslo.
