C. Reep as receiver, Fargo bank, and to the receivership Service of demahd by F. B.

Institution of suits again stockhold- ers for the collection of a 100 per cent levy on their stock, the actions including several against the League Exchange, Inc., several prominent leaguers, and several forfir bank of- ficers. These developments come on the formier teller of the bank who must woswex: inthe Cass county district court’ today to charge of em- bestling approximately $77,000 of ‘the | bank's furids* ‘ The change in receivership of the Fargo bank was ordered by the state |- | banking board at Bismarck. Mr. Engen: said that he expects to: combine ‘the work of the* Far- yo: bank’ with .that of the. Prosper State bank, of which Howard Wood, Heutenatt governor; has been receiv- r ‘ Mri Engen believes {t will be neces- sary to maintain a separate office at Hatton. The: People’s:State bank of Hatton closed:a few weeks ago, and since then has. heen in charge of a former officer of the bank. The combining of the receiverships of these three banks is in line with the policy of the new administration to brifg about a more: economic han- dling of the affairs: of insolvent banks: While the fact is that the. appoint- ment “of Mr.;Engen was’made by the ‘banking ‘board, under/the law it was aécessary ‘that the bank examuier, Gilbert Semmingson, make the nomi- gation. Mr..Semmingson. was placed in charge‘of the examining depart- ment by the old administration on the He was chief deputy to O. E. Lofthus who resigned “the last day the leaguers were in office. i Wood Wants Money Back. The demand that Mr. Wood, as trustee representing a group of Non- partisan farmers who were induced to subscribe for stock in the bank at the time of its first closing, has served on the receiver, brings into relief one ofthe most picturesque of the: many_and varied undertakings of the league leaders, when they were under fire in connection with thelr financial operations. ‘Mr. Wood pleads now for the re- turn ‘to him, as trustee, of approxi- mately $98,000 that was deposited in the bank to his credit for the pur- chase of capital stock at the rate of $210 a share. This: money was sub- scribed at the time of the famous “shakedown” league meeting held in Fargo addressed by Townley and others when the bank was closed by. William Langer and Thomas Hall, majority members of the banking board in 1919, . Mr. Wood makes the plea that ma- terial facts with réspect to the con- ditton of the bank were withheld from him and the persons who subscribed money, and that is the reason: they THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE —"———" AGE SEVEN | DOINGS OF THE DUFFS NOW LISTEN, IF DADDY } SHOULD SAY To You, WONDER WHAT SANTA OUGHT.‘TO BRING MAMMA FOR CHRISTMAS, YOU SAY, “A NICE FUR GOAT" — KINI You ABOUT.

At the time this:money was sub- scribed; the complete report of the condition of’ the bank as revealed in the examination by Mr. Halldorson had been made public. Notwithstanding the fact that the report was publish- ed in The Forum and other papers, the leaguers insisted that. the, report was fraudulent, and this view was accepted by three members of, the state supreme court, Justices Grace, Bronson and Robinson, it will be recalled that those three justices, comprising the majority of the court, refused to permit the then attorney general, Mr.’ Langer, to submit any evidence of any nature to support the position of the banking board that the bank was insolvent. Mr. Wood, as a member of the Non- partisan league executive committee was most active in association with Mr, Townley and Mr.’ Lemke in the fight to keep the bank open and he, Townley; Lemke and others, persuad- ed the farmers to put $98,000 more of their money into the bank which Mr. Wood now pleads was,at that time insolvent, < In the campaigns to raise money for | additional stock ‘in the bank, Wood received approximately $60,000 in far- mers’ notes and about $40,000 in cash. The notes were sold to: other’ banks and the proceeds’ deposited in th Scandinavian-American bank to credit as trustee for the stock pur- chasers, Are Actual Stockholders, Mr. Reep says that all formalities incident to the issuance of stock to, the farmers had been taken, and that only the .writing of the certificates remained to finally qualify them as stockholders. “Mr. Reep hag held that the persons who did subscribe for stock in the league’s driye are actual stockholders, and that they are therd- fore, subject to the levy of 100 per cent on the stock for which they sub- scribed. ‘ Mr. Wood is asking to not only-ex- empt the stock buyers from this 100 per cent levy. but he also is undertaking to establish the stock buyers as preferred creditors. demanding that the money he returned to him immediately. Mr. Reep’s policy of refusal to dovso will be supported by the new receiver, wh? | takes the position that the buyers of the stock were in fact stockholders of the closed ‘bank. If this position is upheld in the courts, and Mr. Wood is prepared to institute suit to establish his point, then the farmers who were prevailed upon by the heads of the league to put $98,000 into the hank, after it had been closed by M Langer and Hall, face the possibility of an addi- tional $50,000 loss, for the reason that the stock involved represents that par value. . Should the receiver fail to carry his point that these buyers are stock- holders, then he will stand by the proposition that they were special de- positors and that all the money that Mr. Woog had in trust must be con- sidered a part of the assets of the closed bank and further, that this partigular deposit is not covered by the guaranty fund. Wood’s Demand. The, notice served by Mr. Wood, through his counsel, Vince Day, of Minneap6tis* follows: ‘To L. C. Reep, Scandinavian American Bank, “Fargo, N.

This corporation was organized un- der the direction of A. C. Townley, Frank B. Wood, Wm. Lemke and vari- ous other’ leaguers, and it was in- tended to be a financing body for the Nonpartisan league. It became pos- sessof of 167 shares of Scandinavian- Americap bank stock at the time. the league ‘officials gained control of the Fargo institution. At the time of the original closing of te bank it was ‘urged upon the state banking department, by P. Aj Hallderson, tleputy examiner, that the law ‘prohibits corporations from own- ing hank stock, the purpose of the law being to, safeguard the. liability of stockholders. ‘ It is a known fact that the League Exchange is virtually without. assets, Wood Family Involved, Among the other suits that have been brought, is one against F.

You will not have to pay one cent on it, as we are just using your credit and will allow you one per cent for the same.” WARNS AGAINST ORGANIZATION OF CREAMERIES A warning against the “promiscuous organization” of creameries or cheese factories at the present time was is- sued today by Robert Flint, ‘state dairy commissioner, based. upon past experiences during such periods as the state is now experiencing. Instead, Mr. Flint believes that the present time is oné in which every ef- fort should be paid to better herds, feeds and feeding methods. In reviewing records of the organ- ization of creameries, and cheese fac- tories Mr. Flint has found that every period of marked financial depression or repeated crop failure has been closely followed by an unusual in- créase in interest in dairying and in the construction of creameries or. cheese factories. The first of the creamery construct- ing periods was following the crop failures of 1887-1888. Creamery pro- moters, or “creamery sharks” began their activities during the winter of 87-88, Mr. Flint found, and before the latter year was. ended had organized a creamery company in nearly every village of importance in that portion of the state that soon was to become North Dakota. Mr. Flint has found record of 16 which were formed. Four mer- and five cheese factories were operating, and in the following! year the number decreased by two. The same condition obtained follow- ing the panic of 1893. A period of ex- pansion followed from 1900 to 1910 and: a great number had failed by 1910. “We are now passing through a marked financial depr ion; already an increased interest in dairying is noticeable,” said Mr. Flint. , “Will his- tery repeat, will we expend our energy in financing promoters’ , creameries, will it be a period of cheese-making as we had follow 1893, or can we dive: y and ap- ply our impulse to bettering our herds, our feeds and feeding methods and to keeping herd recor 0 that "when. we ; period we will have sting benefit and not organizations and In thinking of these well to remember that its own history.” something of | defunct cream dead cream ach cne makes COUNTIES ARE ASKED TO JOIN SAVING EFFORT (Continued from Page 1) economy is possip! cient conduct of the publi but in order to si re the results de- sired we ‘shall need your influence and your devotion to the same policy v the’ conduct of the business of your yunty during the co'ning year.
