rg PAGE EIGHT THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1921 FIN ANCE BOAR D TEACHES IN CHINA | ASKS TEAMWORK, SAYS GRANGAARD North Dakota Man, Secretary : of Finance Board, Explains . Plan of Operation GETS MANY INQUIRIES —__— Immediately After Establish-' "ment There was Flow of & Inquiries \ Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 1. —| Functioning but a few days, the head- | quarters office in this city of the War Finance Corporation agency which will give financial relief to farmers and bankers of the Northwest, has | been besieged with a number of in- quiries, which presage a period of activity for the corporation’s agency here. The local headquarters are for the states of Minnesota, North and South Dakota and applications for | loans will be received at the local of- fices, and sent to Washington with yecommendations from the executive committee of the Northwest branch of the corporation, to be. acted upon by the War Finance Corporation. Officers had been established but a few hours when inquiries began pour- ing in, M. O. Grangaard, secretary of the agency’s committee and in charge of the Minneapolis office, declared. In addition to the many personal cal- lers asking about the proposed plan of financial aid, much correspondence | has come in. Mr. Grangaard is the vice president of the First State Bank | ers, N. D. . i of etablt ment of the northwest | offices here for the corporation will not mean that a flow of easy money | will run from the treasury to the af- fected ' districts,” Mr. Grangaard declared. ‘The advancing of money to the banks which in turn will loan it to farmers in direct need will force co-operation between the farmer and the banker, which is absolutely neces- sary and desirous : at the present time.” % Money advanced by the corporation will be primarily for the banks to| help the farmer, who, if forced to sell vall of his’ products today, would suf- fer extreme financial loss,’ the secre- tary said. Under the:Congressional act, the War Finance corporation is authori- zed to make advances to any bank, banker or trust company which may have made advances for agricultural purposes—such as having connection with the growing, harvesting, prepara- - tion for market, and marketing of agricultural products, or the breeding, raising, fattening, and marketing of livestock. ae These financial institutions wishing to make loans to the farmers will make application to the offices here. Notes of the fatmer taken as collater- al by the bank wishing to make the loan, can be used by that bank as collateral. against which the War Finance body will make advances, Mr. Grangaard pointed out. The executive committee, made up of R. E. Macgregor, of the North- ern National Bank, Minneapolis; C. T. Jaffray, of the First National Bank, Minneapolis, and J. L. Mitchell of the Capitol National Bank, St. Paul, will meet every day to pass upon the applications, after which they will be sent to the War Finance Corporation in Washingon with its re- commendations.- It is hoped, Mr. Grangaard said, to act upon applica- | tions within 24 hours after they are feceived. POTATO GROP ABOVE AVERAGE Nearly 8,000,000 Bushels Is Estimate Made ‘Fargo, 'N. D,, Oct. 1—Dig potatoes as rapidly as possible—as soon as they are mature and as soon as they can be gotteh out of the: ground.. W. R. Porter, marketiig specialist, Agricul- turd]. College: makes. the. foregoing suggestion folhowing a survey of po- tato growing arcas of the state made in connection with marketing confer- ences of potato associations. “North Dakota has a potato cnop estimated to be 10 per cent above the average for the United States, and prospects that prices for potatoes will be good this year. The estimate for the United States is 63.7 per cent, and ours 73 per cent, compared to a ten- year average of 76 per cent. Some 20 North Dakota potato associations are affiliated with the Minnesota Potato ‘Exchange this year in the marketing of their crop, so good distribution is anticipated for a part of the state chop at least. The bulk of these local associations of ‘North Dakota are lo- ed in the Northwestern and South- eastern part of the state, and.in the Red River Valley. The September estimate: for the 's ‘crop is 7,891,000 bushels, and erage for the whole country is 322,985,000 bushels, ‘Damaging frosts can be expected at any time now, according to Mr. Por- ter, so fields of tubers that are mature should be dug at once since weather conditions have delayed the. opera- tions. ‘Late varieties such as Green Mountain are probably in greatest r, for in such centers of this is in the Berthold district tops are still green, and will probably be green when fi oceur. To dig these late varietios in an immature condition would also mean a loss, since shipment would he more difficult under such conditions.

COOPERATION IN AIDING RUSSIA BEING PLANNED American, England and German Banking Interests Negotiat- Wis., | SS M ing For Contracts \ EXPECT CONTRACT RESPECT, (The Associated Press,)—-American, Engiand and Ger | man banking interests have begun) negotiations looking toward co-oper- ation in the rehabilitaiion of Russia through the financing of industrial en- terprise in the» Soviet republic, ac- cording to information which has reached interested commercial circles here. { The proposed ass nce would not be based upon a recognition of the! Present government of Russia but would be extended “with the convic tion that the Russian government would: respect any contracts which! might be made,” one of the, repre sentatives of a London house, whici:| is promoting the movement, declared. | He added that negotiations were be-| gun only “after it was established that | the Soviet government was no longer; ‘red’ but had swung to the right, and; was: aiming _at something essentially the same aé the goal of other repudo lican nations.” » . The Russian governinent is under- stood to have .been intormed of the! purpose, of the American, English aud) Berlin, Oct. /1. German interests and to: have been told frankly there ws no’ intention | at this time of? making’ Russia a, fourth party to the contract, but only | the object of “a solicitous and profit-| able, movement.” | The Russians ‘are believed to have| taken it for granted that the. interna- | tional bankers were planning: “a| benevolent . exploitation” of | Russia: | which would not only yield them profit; but would held to: stabtlie: the uncer-/ tain eccnomical situation there. Certain Russians here who have dis- Played lively interest in these nego: tiations assert there is a possibility they will succeed regardiess of wheth-| er the present Russian government stands or falls,-although it is admit- ted that at this time tne only result! of. the movement has neen to secure the promise of a number of individual but strong, banking houses in each of the three countries tv support the plan if good evidence is offered that the Soviet government will give the foreign financiers a free hand. Pat Up Large Sums. . ‘A number of foreign banks and narticularly English concerns already have placed large sums at the disposal of the Russians and also have sold them much merchandise, in many in- stances extending credit for as long as five years,” said a ‘ trialist who is interested in numerous Russian movements. , “Other foreign:concerus have flatly | declined to have any commerce with! the Russian Soviet und the actions of these concerns have oeen widely ad- vertised. The fact of the matter is, and many financiers see it that, whether the present hussian govern ment prevails or not, vist fortunes ar waiting in Russia for (he men who ultimately must develop the country’s atent resources, as well as rehabili- tate the present run-down industries.” A Russian refugee here, once wealthy | and a member ofthe old regime, not | daring to return while tne Soviets are | in power, nevertheless has decided to devote his efforts to. promoting plans to “exploit” Russia at long range,| will later make many Rockefellers of | Russia.” “I know Russia and 1 know the Rus- | sians and I understand what kind of a government exists ‘there now,” this | man , declared. “This government,| which has prevailed notwithstanding | prophecies of its downfall every | month for the last four years, will not} be immediately overthrown but grad. ually will give way, as it has bee giving way, to a less radical and a more reasonabe regime. ’ “The new government will represent the different classes of Russia an through its agency,there will eventua! ly arise the United States of Russia— a United States richer in natural re- sources than the United States of America.” This new state, deprived of} ready money by war and revolution, | will welcome the advent of foreign capital and foreign experts and 1 aw convinced they will reay profits as they | sow investments.’ i Prediet Success, Ne expressed the belief that the resent negotiations, which he said ne/ ‘stood were proceeding “se- | large measure sic-| though: response’ from America | had not indicated the proposal was be i KEYES’ EARNINGS EXCEED HUSBAND’S PAY AS SENATOR MRS.
