Putnam Announces Seed Loan Details In cases where borrowers have un- paid balances on previous federal seed loans, crop mortgage forms must be executed and submitted with ap- Plications for 1932 loans, H. O. Put- mms county agent, announced Fri- lay. In cases where forms already have been executed and submitted to the Grand Forks office, this proceedure will not be necessary, he said. In cases where money is borrowed for the purchase of seed only, a seed lien covering only the crop on the land on which the seed is sown, will be all that is required under the new regulations. Where money is bor- rowed for the expenses of crop pro- duction, a crop mortgage, covering all land farmed by the borrower, must be given together with such waivers as are necessary, Putnam said. As a result, where money is borrowed for both seed and other purposes two notes will be executed, one for the seed, and one for the amount used for other purposes.

Graham, state registrar. The money is being apportioned on the same basis as motor vehicle li- cense fees, half going to the coun- ties and half to the state highway de- partment construction fund. The balances for the motor vehicle registration department were $998.58 for the biennium of 1923-25; $2,349.41 for 1925-27; $42.01 for 1927-29 and $15,605.77 for 1929-31.

Griffith’s latest ofefring at the Capitol Theatre, beginning Monday, when “The Struggle,” a United Artists picture, is presented in this city for the first time. This is the first pic- ture which the celebrated director has made since his recent “Abraham Lincoln” which latter film was de- clared one of the best ten of the past {season. “The Struggle” has created much comment wherever it has been shown on account of its realistic scenes and dramatic power. ‘The central character is that of a young American working-man who is unable to break an unnecessary habit even when he sees its continuance engulfing in ruin his home and his loved ones. “The Struggle” tells a dramatic story lightened throughout by human touches and compounded of the comedy and tragedy of every- day life. One of the features in the picture is a sensational climax in which the tators overcome by emotion. “The Struggle” was personally directed by D. W. Griffith. PARAMOUNT THEATRE Ever since Richard Barthelmess first flashed into the public conscious- ness on the silver screen he has con- sistently avoided the obvious and stereotyped. Just when fans think they have ‘him cataloged as to type and charac- terizations or story, he can be de- pended upon to burst out in some- thing entirely unexpected. Undoubtedly, one of the most radi- cal departures from all accepted movie formula was “Broken Blos- soms,” the grand-daddy of art for art's sake in motion pictures. It made history. It made money. It made Barthelmess. Since then nearly every Barthelmess vehicle has been a try at something different from the general type of cycle of plot current at the time of production. Barthelmess will dare anything but the untruth. Looking back at the forty-seven pictures Richard Barthelmess has made since “War Brides,” we find such innovations as “Way Down East,” “Tol'able David,” “The En- chanted College,” “Drag,” “Young Nowheres,” “Dawn Patrol” and “The Last Flight.” His latest slam at the conventional is “Alias The Doctor” which begins Monday at the Para- mount Theatre. i In the nectar which bees gather from flowers is sucrose, the same sugar that is contained in sugar beets and cane. “/BDITORIALS HINT AT REASONS FOR REVOLT'" Dissatisfaction With Farm Loan Administration Causes Bitterness Hints of what caused the recent tremendous surge of North Dakota voters into the Democratic party are contained in recent editorial resumes of the political situation by several newspapers, In the western part of the state and in the drouth areas considerable heat is being applied to the federal department of agriculture for al- leged lackadaisical administration of the federal feed and seed loans. The Killdeer Herald is wroth be- cause only 400 blanks were sent to that county whereas 1,200 were or- dered and says: “This is another example of some- suspense is so strong as to leave spec-jone knowing more about our busi- ness than we do ourselves. The management of the Grand Forks of- fice has fallen down so woefully that ll wonder how that man Eliff can hold his job. He is probably the most autocratic and inefficient po- litical parasite who has ever repre- sented the government in this state.” Down at Valley City P. R. Tru shaw of the Times-Record, who h abit of speaking his mind, says: ‘North Dakota is one of the great agricultural states, and it has seen its prosperity vanishing year after year under a system of some kind that has sapped the life blood from agriculture and caused thousands to leave their farms ‘broke’ that a few years ago were in good circum- stances. As a Republican we can- not close our eyes to that fact, nei- ther are we trying to do so. The facts are staring us in the face, the situation is acute and the agricul- turalists of the nation, including those in North Dakota, are sullen and dissatisfied, and they went. to |the polls Tuesday and in most un- |mistakable terms said so. 1. “They are clamoring for a change in leadership and if .Mr. Hoover is the choice of the Republican party for president he is going to face probable defeat unless by some mys- terious turn of the wheel between now and November he can bring about some real changes that spell prosperity.” The attitude is summed up pretty well in the Dunn County Journal which says: “While we daily be- come hotter under our rock-ribbed Republican collar nothing apparent- ly is heard, done or accomplished by the widely-heralded farm relievers.
