We feel the Bank of North Dakota ‘should work along the lines of ga federal reserve bank.” Capt. Baker insisted that, this was an important question which should be-answered immediately. He did not believe it the intention of\the Bank of North Dakota. to compete’ for, private ecmmercial accounts, , Governor’ Fra- vier declared that the answer to thjs question ‘must await the coming of other men who’ were to have charge of or interest in the supervision of the bank. He declared to commit the com- mission on the question. President James J.
