F. B. WOOD ON WITNESS| STAND IN DIST. COURT (Continued from Page 1) time and that most of the work on the executive of the National Nonpartisan league was done by Lemke ana LeSueur elicited the infor- mation that the League Exchange «:- quired the stock of J. J. Hastings in not the league exchange paid for it beyond his recollection that the rec- ords showed that it did. Memory Hazy. Mr. Wood’s memory was very hazy at times, he saying that it was difli- cult for him to remember many of the earlier conversations and deals refer- red to. He assured counsel tat he wished to answer ail questions and tell everything he knew. Mr. Wood and did not know much about some of the organizations such as the Pub-{ lishers National Service Bureau, Con- sumers Stores, etc., except that in 1920 he said the Publishers Service Bureau became involved in difficulty and the national executjve committee of the league asked him to straighten it out He: said he was opposed to the Con- sumers stores and Publishers Service Bureau companies. * “So far as these organizations are concerned Lemke gave the legal ad- vice, did he not?” asked LeSueur. “Yes, he was the legal adviser.” “He drew up most of the papers.” “Yes.” The organization or various banks by 4, J. Hastings and Porter Kimball was referred to. Wood said that they had got ten per cent and that “we thought jit was too much for just organizing a bank when it only took a day or so.” This was the reason, he said, why the Ransom county farmers asked the| League Exchange to organize their bank and he said the-charge was only three hundred dollars. He could not be specific’ about Hastings connection with the league at various times as h2 sald Hastings was hired and fired so many times by the league. i Who Owned Bank?

Anerican bank ' of Fargo, through which many so-called “league enter- prises” were financed, was owned in part by the league Exchange, of which 'F. 3. Wood, one of the three national executive committeemen of the Nonpartisan league is president, was one of the efforts of the defense in the trial yesterday. The records were brought out dur- ling the long cross-examination to which Arthur LeSueur, counsel for Brinton, charged with perjury, be- cause he said, in substance, among other things, that the Nonpartisan league leaders partly owned and con- trolled the Scandinavian-American bank, subjected ‘Nels J. Brevig, for- merly assistant cashier of the insti- tution and now assistant to the re- celver. This bank which LeSueur main- tains loaned over a half million dol- lars to “league enterprises” such as the Consumers United Stores com- pany, the Fargo CouriersNews, the Publishers National Service Bureau, the Northwest Service Bureau and the League Exchange, had loans and redeposits from the ‘Bank of North Dakota amounting to $425,000 when it closed February 14, 1921, accord- ing to the state bank records, ‘To establish the contention that thy, | Hastings, j transferred from F. 'B. Wood, trustee, Nonpartisan league partly owned and controlled the Scandinavian-American bank the defense asked witness Bre- vig to/read from the stock record of the bank. After Brevig had told that J. J. Hastings, formerly a Townley aide, had acquired stock in the Scan- dinavian-American bank and had be- come vice-president, Counsel LeSueur asked: “Who acquired when he left?” “Why, the League Exchange,” re- plied Brevig. , i “And it is still held by the League Exchange?” . “Yes.” The first record bearing on ‘Hastings’ ‘stock the | Point showed 67 shares of stock trans- ferred to the League Exchange from The next showed 25 shares to the League Exchange. The first transfer was on June 16, 1919, “and other transfers in September, 1919. | Four bigcks of shares of 25 each were transferted by F. B. Wood, trustee, to the League (Exchange. In addition it was shown that Lieut.Gov. Howard Wood possessed’ ten shares, Mrs. Flora’ Wood five shares and IF. \B. Wood five shares. Porter Kimball, former business associate of Hast- ings, had 25 shares. - In addition Brinton claims that there are 67 shares which were held by men subservient to the Nonparti- san league, giving the league control of 279 shares out of a total of 500,. the capital stock being $50,000. He classes N. G, Eggen, holder of 15 shares; H. J, Hagen and wife, holders of 22 shares; O. K. Hanson, holder of 25; Spurgeon O'Dell, holder of 10 shares, as being with the league and giving the control of the institution to the Nonpartisan league. Estimates League Paper Witness Brevig said that he be- lieved the Scandinayian - American bank had about $430,000 of “league paper” in October, 1919. On August 28, 1919 the Scandinavian-American bang had about $323,706.16 from the Bank of North Dakota. “Is it not a fact that money you got from the Bank of North Dakota made it possible to loan-this money out to these “league enterprises?” asked Counsel LeSueur. “Well, it helped,” replied Brevig. The witness. admitted that there was a further amount of loans to the | various league concerns which: has been made at other times and wefe net included in the total given. “So the amounts we have just gone over does not mean all of the loans?” “No, sir.” The witness was asked if he could compile a list of all loans, and he said he could not from the records at hand. “Do you know the amount of it about the first of October, 19192” Le- Sueur then asked. PAGE FIVE “About $430,000, I think,” the wit- ness replied. y During the long cross-examination Counsel LeSueur read lists of loans made by the Scandinavian-American bank, taking the figures from the bank records whieh Brévig produced. Some of Loans They ineluded two loans to “Pub- lishers National Service Bureau, W. W. Liggett,” aggregating about $6,000; _ on certificates of deposit to the Ran- som County Farmers bank of ‘Lisbon, to the Fargo Courier-News, Crocus State bank, F. B. Wood, and many others. In many instances where a loan was shown as made to an indl- vidual, with a notation on the book such as “Consumers United Stores,” the witness said that the individual making the loan did not get the money but signed the accommodation noté and the money went t the Con- sumers United Stores company. “Were not these ‘loans separated this way so that there would pot be an excess loan to the Consumers United Stores’ company?” LeSueur asked, : The witness replied affirmatively. In one instance eight individuals signed notes of $904.40 each, which went to the League Mxchange, and in another ten individuals signed notes of $1,800 each, which went the saine way. Minutes of the board of directors of the Scandinavian-American bank were read by.LeSueur to the jury. At a meeting on July 29, 1919, H. J. Hagen, president of the bank, brought up the general ‘question of rediscount- ing league paper in ‘the,amount of 359,000 in the Bank of North Dakota, and the officers of.the bank were au- thorized to make Te negotiations. At anotherstime N. G. Eggen “said that in view of the league's unlimited facilities for banking the obligations of this bank should be limited to $100,000." Another .mecting, on Jannary 12, 1921, a month or so befpre the bank closed its doors, a letter was received by the board of directors from F, 'B. Wood authorizing the directors to is- sue stock for a balance of’ $98,807.11, trust fund which had been raised for the purpose of increasing the capital stock of the bank. € TO MEMBERS BISMARCK COUNTRY CLUB: After June 28th reservations MUST be made by noon for six o’clock daily dinners and by noon Saturday for Sunday dinner.

They had never before been south of the Arctic Circle. rN They had never seen a street, a town, a window, or a wooden door. A bed, a water tap; and an electric light produced completely new sensations, Street cars were unknown to them; telephones unheard of; trains not to be believed even when beheld. f They had never seen an automobile until someone took them riding in one. They had: never set their eyes on an airplane until some- ene did his most daring stunts in one to thrill them. They had never even seen a movie! But what do yousuppose moved them most in the whole bag of tricks which civilization produced for their amusement and amazement? ‘What seemed to them the greatest wonder of all?- The cold storage plants! The White Man didn’t always have to hunt and fish when he wanted to eat! Here was civilization’s greatest gift, its greatest benefaction. This feature of civilization makes it possible for Swift & Company, in the season of over production, to store a supply of food for distribution in the season of scant, or non-production. Thus we are able to maintain for all a constant supply of such choice and Necessary foods as Premium Milk-fed Chickens, Brookfield Butter and Brookfield Eggs. Swift & Company, U. S. A. /
