INTRASTATE GRAIN RATES T0 BE PROBED Railroad Board Announces Proposed _Investigation— Dates to Be Given Later Announcement that it has decided to enter into an investigation of all intrastate grain freight rates was made here today by the state rail- road board. Action was taken following receipt of announcement from the Interstate Commerce Commission that intra- state as well interstate grain rates are to be considered by it in its general investigation of the grain rate structure in. western trunk line territory. Ina letter to. Frank Milhollan, chairman of the North Dakota board, B. H. Meyer, one of the. Interstate Commerce comm: ii as le cooperation _be- tween it and the state commi: within the territory referred to desirable ‘in the conduct of this i vestigation. You will realize, how. ever, that with so sensitive a rate ad- justment as that obtaining on grain and grain®products, and in view of the inclusion of intrastate rates, there may be opposition raised to a state commissioner sitting with this commission in a conference where the determination of rates on and grain products is under consider- ation “if the state commission of ich that commissioner is a mem. ber does not have before it for d termination’ a proceeding covering intrastate rates. Meyer indicated that it is not the intention of the federal body to issue direct orders covering the various trastate scales but that it will give the various states “reasonable op- portunity” to make voluntarily any changes: which ‘the hearing may jus- tify. North Dakota hearings on the in- trastate scale will be held at times and places to be announced later and probably will be attended by a rep- resentative of the federal board, Mil- hollan said.

Week-day Religious Instruction Act Is Asked in Resolution The Cooperstown circuit of the Norwegian Lutheran church of Amer- ica, representing 40 congregations and 3,100 parishioners, yesterday ask- ed the passage of a weck-day relig. ious instruction act. The resolution presented in the house, was referred to the education committee. The commissioners of Traill county presented a resolution urging’ the organization of a criminal identifi- cation bureau to halt the spread of crime together with a resolution ask- ing that counties be absolved of the necessity of insuring county em- employers in the state workmen’s compensation fund. They asked that the placing of such insurance by counties be made optional on the grounds that the danger, in many cases, is small and cost “grossly ex- orbitant.” The first resolution was sent to the judiciary committee and the second to the insurance committee. The committee. on corporations other than municipal recommended passage of House Bill 15 and it’ was the first measure to go on the house calendar ‘at this session, The bill would authorize firms and corpora- tions to carry insurance on employes and officers and would regulate con- ditions under which such contract may be made. Stenographers and Typists Are Sought Washington, D. Jan, 14.—The United States Civil Service Commis- sion has announced that until Jan- uary 28, 1927, it will receive appli- cations from residents of North Da- kota for positions of junior steno- grapher and junior typist in the de- partmental service at Washington. The Federal civil service law re- quires that, so far as practicable, positions in the departmental service among the states and territories on a population basis. Some states are in arrears under the appointment and North Dakota is one of them. The situation is that res: idents of this state have not ap- plied for examinations in sufficient or appointments due under the ap- portionment. The present stenographer and typist examinations will be held only equali: ing to the registers a considerable number of eligibles who live in states which are in arrears. number of cities ceipts of applications. : Full information and “application blanks. may be obtained from the secretary of the local board of civil in any city.

Approximately $1,760,090—Insurance Fur- nished at Low Cost Total indemnities paid by the state! hail insurance department for losses during 1926 were approximately. $1,- 700,000, with a few disputed claims yet to be disposed of, according to a preliminary’ report, for the year by Martin S. Hagen, manager of the department. The department carried insurance on about one third of all crops in the state, amounting to a risk of $43,467,574 for the season, the report says. The claims paid numbered 9,774. In 1926 the hail indemnity tax rate in the first district, composed of 32 counties, was 28 cents; in the second, consisting of eight counties, 33 cenis; in the third, six counties, 39 cents; and the fourth, seven counties, 44 cents. “This may certainly be con- sidered a very low cost for the in- surance,” Hagen says. The department finished the year] | with a cash balance of $1,466,847.01, and a surplus fund of $3,638,090.18, the report shows. Law Changes Requested The legislature is requested by the department to pass measures that would give the hail indemnity tax the same status as a general.tax. Ac- cording to the.rulings of t ate supreme court, “it has become large- ly uncollectable,” and “therefore the department is placed in the position of having to furnish protection on thousands of acres of land for which no premium can be charged,” Hagen says. He adds that, “It is our honest conviction that the hail department has been able in the lust few years to be of a great benefit to the farm- ers of the state. Therefore there is a great need for such an institution, but under the present status of the ail indemnity tax it may not be possible in the future to operate suc- cessfully.” : Hagen recommends that the present system of districti be continued. Under the old system the same hail indemnity tax rate was applied in all parts of the state, May We Be of Service to You?
