THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) THE MILL LOSES The audit report that the state flour mill at Grand Forks | has lost $230,000 ought to occasion no surprise. Add to this | loss the taxes the state has lost on a $3,000,000 investment | and the total loss would be nearer a half million dollars. | The mill has*been in competent hands. C. E. Austin, the general manager, is an expert mill and elevator manager; he occupied high places both with Canadian government. elevators and privately-owned flour mills. He is a man of the highest integrity and is intent on making the state mill | a success. But the state is competing in one of the most highly | specialized businesses existing. The state mill under the most favorable circumstances would have a tremendous task to survive under ordinary rules of business. When the Home Building Association lost great amounts |), of money the apologists of state socialism came to the fore, blamed poor management and* offéred all sorts of excuses; | even urged that the experiment be continued. When the Drake flour mill lost money more excuses were | offered, but they did not retrieve the losses to the taxpayers. When the Bank of North Dakota got into difficulties the excuse was offered that boycots and economic conditions militated against the success of the bank and that in time it, too, would be a great success. The Tribune has firmly stood against excursions of the} state into the field of private business. It has inveighed | against the practice both as economically unsound, a usir- pation by the state government of the functions of its citi- zens and as a dangerous and costly business for the tax- payers. It has been castigated for the stand, but is able to point to the cold facts as revealed by accountants to support its stand. The report of the auditors of the flour mill shows that in order to break into the sales market the cost of selling flour has been great and the cost of manufacture has been excessive. Effort has been made to offer a superior quality of goods at a low price. This practice appears to have~been necessary, but it is a practice for which great business or- ganizations such as the Standard Oil Company and_ the United States Steel Corporation were assailed in the Halls of Congress, on the soap box and in newspapers. Selling below cost in order to unseat a competitor. is not the sort of business one might expect the State of North Dakota to be engaged in. The manager of the mill, keen to make the best, bargains he could and to make a superior product, bought some Ca- nadian wheat. It is well known that all milling industries must search far and wide for the prover grades of wheat to be used in producing the proper sort of mixture, beth} from the standpoint of making @ good product and making it economically. This practice ‘arouses great criticism, it is a blow at state pride, it must be discontinued, even Pheu he believes it good business. Should the mill have been able to Show a profit, the ques- tion recurs: ‘What does the state gain?” ‘It is recognized that the chief market for the flour mill at Grand Forks al- ways must be North Dakota. There are private mills now | in operation in the state producing far more flour than is consumed each year by the people of the State of North Dakota. Should the state extend the operations of its mill, sell below cost of production or use the full force of governmental finance and power to break down private mills which have furnished employment to thousands of peo- ple and furnished a superior wagon market for wheat sold by the farmers and which have been built up through the| patience, industry and preseverence of citizens of the state? 20 | 7.20 | - 5.00 Godan 6.00 $100,000—OY! The classical masterpiece, “Yes, We Have No Bananas,” already has earned about $100,000 in royalities for its com- posers, Frank Silver and Irving Cohn. They expect to make at least $70,000 more by the end of the year. Critics, with acid temperaments, must writhe in agony at this bit of news. The popularity of “Yes; We Have No Bananas” made it the inevitable target of a lot of sour criti- cism. Partly due to envy, partly to the principle noted by the psychologist, David Gibson, that the tree of much fruit gets the most clubs. Logically, the critics should concentrate their ridicule on failure. Instead, they usually attack success. After all, isn’t $100,000 a cheap price for the public to pay for the tremendous amount of diversion and fun derived from the bananas song? The public certainly got more than. it paid for. Fun — relaxation —is cheap at any price in our nerve- tense civilization of mechanical monotony. In this sense, old P. T. Barnum was the ideal type of philanthropist. We rather hesitate to spread the news that “Yes, We Have No Bananas” has earned $100,000 for its authors. iHesitate because it may inspire thousands of bright young mien and women to waste their time trying to counterfeit the syccass of this song, by writing others. is_always a market for a “Yes, We Have ‘No Bananas.” But for each bananas-song success, fate-has at least a thousand failures, ‘ou gp migsh hear of the faflutes.

[ Rditorial Review CREDIT DUE ADMINISTRATIO: It is gratifying to know that be- tween the last legislature and the governor North Dakota taxes for the general fund will this year be reduced over three-quarters of a million dollars. The legislative appropriations were less than usual, and the level-headedness of the governor in still further re- ducing through the' veto, have made this condition possible. It is easy to increase one’s expenses, | but it surely is a duece of a job to curtail them, so considerable credit is due the administration for its good work.—Beach Advance, NORTH DAKOTA IS ALL RIGHT S, Freeman, | ?- IN pee? Mace past year and more the rd hag been preaching a doc- tritte of “faith in North Dakota.” jome of us may be discquraged at itmes and the future may look ther black. But we are con- vinced that in the end North Da- kota is going to come out all right and the man 4vho ‘has faith in this state and backs that faith up with his money and plenty of good hard work is desined to be richly re- warded. There are other men in North Dakota of the same opinion. One of them is the veteran Walt Tay- lor, publisher of the LaMoure Chronicle, who came to Nofth Da- kota shortly after Columbus dis- covered America and has been preaching about its greatness ever since. We invite you to join us and hear him sing as follows: “Don’t tell me that North Da- kota isn’t a wonderful state with 2 glorious future just ‘around the corner! When I look out upon these countless acres of splendid corn and alfalfa and sweet clover; when I see millions of cream cans on their way to market when I read of a coal strike in the Hast and remember that our coal de- posits in this state number five hundred billion tons; when I think of these and a lot of other things. I want to shout for joy because I live in North Dakota.” We need a few more Walt Tay- Jors in North Dakota. If we had @ thousand of them here, it wouldn’t be long until North Dak would he considered another lifornia and folkg would be flocking in here by the hundreds of thousands.
