a WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1919. * This dtCK DAILY TRIBUNE PAGE 5 Se ee SSS PS SSeS StS SS SSS ISS EE @ DAKOTA BANK NOT CANDIDATE FOR MEMBERSHIP Secretary Morris of Industrial Commission Denies Institu- tion Is Rejected QUESTION IS INDEFINITE Board as Yet Unable to Deter- mine Whether Admission Would Be Beneficial Referring to a report to the effect that the bank of North Dakota, inas- much as it is not in a strict sense a banking institution but rather is 4 department ‘of the state government, has been held ineligible to member- ship in the federal reserve bank tor the Ninth district, Secretary Oliver S. ‘Morris of the state industrial com- mission says: “I was in Mirineapolis with Man- ager Waters and\; Director Cathro when we talked with Mr. Rich and ‘Mr. Wold and when the question of the Bank of North Dakota becoming a member of the federal reserve bank was discussed. Both Mr. Cathro and Mr. Waters were specific in their declarations at that time that we were not making application for member- ship in the federal reserve bank and that the industrial commission was not then convinced that such mem- bership was desirable. Twin City newspapers carried stories to this effect at the time, and nothing: has since occurred to change the situa- tion. The Bank of North Dakota: is not now a candidate for membership in the federal reserve system, and it never has been. “Our desire has been to get the ‘bank into operation and then to de- termine whether it would be to our advantage to tie up the comparative- ly large sum of money which we would be required to keep on deposit with the federal reserve bank were we to become members. We were in- formed by the federal reserve bank at the time of our conference that we probably would be unable, as a mem- ber bank, to rediscount through the federal reserve bank, money for state banks of North Dakota which are not members of the federal reserve bank. This was one of the chief ad- vantages which we hoped to gain from membership in the federal re- serve bank, but we were informed that such a privilege had been ex- tended to non-member banks only in very rare instances. “There is no application for mem- bership pending from the Bank of North Dakota which the federal re- serve bank could either accept or re- ject. The situation is exactly the same as it was at the time of our conference with Messrs. Wold and ‘Rich, and we have yet to determine whether we even wish to make form- al application for membership,” said Secretary Morris. ‘ Weather Report sg Pennie rl menos For 24 hours ending at noon July 9: Temperature at 7 a. m. 5: Temperature at noon .

B. Blakemore, a former Fargo elty commissioner, was named man- ager for the North Dakota home ‘building association, at a salary of $5,000 per annum, by’. the industrial day afternoon. Blakemore, recently etired from his post as chief of the gate city wa- terworks, has been friendly. to the league for some time back. Toward the’ close of the last assembly, he '@| wrote Governor Frazier offering the state his services in any capacity in which they could best be used.. The governor has decided that Mr. Blake- more’s talents can ‘best be utilized’ in the home building department. i The commission instructed Myr. Elakemore to procure a bond in the sum of $25,000, which will safeguard the funds which are to pass through his hands, and to make a study of the home builders’ act with a view to fa- miliarizing himself with the contents of the measure, and to make a survey of the state with a view to determin- ing where the association may best begin its acquisition of land for farms and town-sites, which if mav do through the exercise of the right of public domain. Whether the associa- tion will immediately begin the build- ing of model cities to be sold on the instalment plan to those who care to buv cannot be learned. Blakemore was once a member of the state assembly, where he intro- dum measures which were not passed. He was a member of the Fargo city commission for several years and was connected for some time with the gate city water works.

This year to date the Superior docks have. shipped 3,- 241,676 tons as compared with 4,701,- 688 tons during the corresponding period: last year. | The greatest total loss was recorded iby Great Northern, which has shipped 2,785,432 tons against 3,887,615 tons up to June 30 last year. The largest comparative loss was shown in the re- port from the Northern Pacific dock, which had dropped from 302,277 tons to 167,907 tons or almost one-half. This is explained by the fact that the Cuyuna Range ore, which is trans- ported by the Northern Pacific, is a .Manganese ore and at present not in great demand. The figures of the Soo Line, which is also confined to trans- portation of the Cuyuna Range ore, does not seem to substantiate this con- tention, however, as it only shows a decrease from 511,798 tons to 360,695, a decrease of less than 30 percent and no larger in proportion than that experienced by the Great Northern, which, carried straight ore. !

IS WAR STUDENT IN ARIIY SERVICE, COURT 0 DECIDE Puzzling Question Appealed From Cass County by Iowa Insurance Company The supreme court of North Dakota is asked by the American Life Insur- ance Co. of Des Moines, Ia., to deter. mine whether a man who has been in- ducted into a students’ army traini corps is actually engaged in the mili- tary or naval service of his country. ‘Judge Cole of the First district court in Cass county has ruled that a mem- ber of such student corps is not ac- tually “engaged” in military service }and he has held that the Des Moines insurance company must pay to Lena | Myhli $2,000, which is the value of a policy held in the American Life by her son, Hiram I. O. Myhli, who suc- cumbed to influenza while attending Dunwoody institute last fall as a member of a students’ army corps. The company has in its policies a. ‘clause forfeiting the policy-holder’s lrights in the event of his engaging in military or naval service within five | years from the date of issuing the pol- licy without first gaining written con- sent from the company. Such consent was not obtained by Myhli, and upon his death the company declined to pay the amount of his policy to his moth- er, contending that he was engaged in military service at the time of his death without previous to enter such service having obtained written con- sent from the company. Judge ‘Cole ruled against the com- pany, holding that as a member of a student army corps, Myhli was only enrolled for training and not actually engaged in military service, and that the risks which he assumed were not greater if as great than those com- mon to ordinary civil life. . The insur- ance company has appealed to the su- preme court, where it is anticipated | the case will come up for early argu- ment.
