Thompson of Bantry Writes His Views to Farmers’ Dispatch at St. Paul SEES FINANCIAL CALAMITY Points Out That State-Owned Utilities Must Be Operated on Borrowed Capital Parts of the Nonpartisan league program, as enacted by the re-,. cent North Dakota legislature are described as frenzied finance, the new hail insurance law is con- demned as unjust, the real estate bonding proposition is held- more expensive than loans obtained through the Federal government and in the financial failure of tie - state-owned industries is forecast in a letter which G. O. Thompson, Lantry, N.D., has written to the.. Farmers Dispatch. In his letter, Mr Thompson urges North Dakota farmers to study the prog thoroughly, and if they think any of the laws too much of a gamble, to support the proposition of. submitting the whole program to a vote of the people by signing the referendum petitions now. being circulated. By G. C. Thompson, ‘Bantry, N. D. At the time the Farmers’ Nonpar- ,| tisan league was being organized. the men who paid the bill were told that | the first object was to get farmers’ representatives to Bismarck so we often had demanded. legislature has adjourned, as if the legislators believed in g ting plenty while the getting was god. Candidly, I don’t’ think we North Dakota farmers have given all these weighty questions the careful consideration they deserve. More- over, I am convinced that when we come to the final analysis—paying the -bill—we will find that many of the measures are not what we want after all. In the November election, the farm- ers “said” through the ‘allot box that | they wanted a compulsory hail in- surance law. They did not get it. The law passed is based on voluntary action. Why Were Instructions Violated? Why did the legislature fail to pass a compulsory law, when the farmers’ will was to obvious? As for myself, Iam unable to find an answer. I suspect, however, ‘that somebody must have been able to figure out that the farmers did not really want such a law; probably they reasoned that they just thonght they wanted it. If my guess in this regard is cor- rect, why did not the same person figure out while he was about it, that volantary insurance would be even worse? pulsory-insurance problem: I have not the statistics to show in dollars and cents thé daniage caused the acreage and percentage of loss in 1916).

Could Not Even Pay Tax \ There are. perhaps, thousands of farmers in the most seriously strick- en sections of the state that have not had a crop worth 46 cents an acre in the last three year: It goes without saying that they have suf- fered enough loss without paying 46 cents an acre ($73.60 for 160 acres) j Insurance on such Os, The bill as passed gives the farfler the option to insure or not, but he must pay a dent tax on each acre regard} This money goes, we are told, {insurance bureau. . | The \“Big Btz’ insurance compa- nies may be bad, sut I have never encountered one that was hog enough to ask:me to pay $9.60 to,help ‘them pay their office expenses, when I did not want:to insure. How is a person going to get an {dea of what his insurance is going to cost him, or how much insurance he will get in case his crop is de, stroyed? No one can tell to what extent the state will suffer from hail, nor how many farmers will in- sure their craps. ., It is a well-known fact that sev- eral localities in the. state. frequently suffer hail losses, whilé-ii “other sec- tions, such a catastrophe, is almost unknown. I don’t think many farm- ers will be anxious to insure under any such scheme. However, those who do will be those who are living in communities where hail storms are, frequent. Let us suppose that 1,000,000 afes were insured and that the crop on a quarter of this~area should happeu to be totally destroyed. Tho owners of the 250,000 acres would be entitled te an indemnity of about $2,000,000. But where would the money come from? The maximum tax for this purpose is 50 cents an acre on land insured, ‘but that would make only $500,000. Where would they, get the Balance of $1,500,000? Why Insure Before June If I am correctly informed, the law provides that the insurance ‘must be taken out early’ in the spring. Why should a farmer take out hail insur- ance before June? Hail won't. do much harm before that time, and there is always the chance of wind. frost and drought and in the event of such loss a farmer would be only add- ing to his burden by having hail in- surance on a crop that previously ad been destroyed or greatly reduced in yleld. Hi xes probably will be high enough without this additional bur- den, Candidly, 1 don't think farm- ers who have been complaining about high taxes for the last twenty years know what high taxes mean—yet. Fellow farmers, think this mat- ter over and ! believe you will agree with me that you can’t af- ford to insure under this law when you have so vague an idea of what it is going to cost you and even less of what the insur- ance will be worth in case your ; crop is destroyed. Think also, | of the act that we are asked to pay 3 cents an acre for “office expense,” veven if you «do not want the insurance. Profits in State Bank. And, while you are at it, why not ‘try to figure out your share of the profits in the Bank of North Dakota? They are going ‘to , issue. $10,000,000 worth of North Dakota real estate bonds, at a maximum interest of 7 per cent. This money is to be loaned to; farmers at 4 rate that_will enable the state to operate the system at cost I nor no one else can tell what that cost. will be, but suppose it will be one-half of 1 percent—I wonder that a low estimate. That would make tie total rate 7 1-2 percent.

Most of us would be satisfied if we made that much on capital invested. Bob gets $700 a year and he puts that out at interest, so that it draws 6 percent. Bill must pay all of Sis $700 on his loan, Twenty years from} now Bob will not be worth a red cent. Neither will he have been able to pay a cent on’ the principal. Thinks Farmers ‘Duped.
