San Fran- Disclosure that Governor Langer ‘vetoed the appropriation to the state railroad board for employment of a freight rate expert brings surprise, chagrin and questioning to the minds of many North Dakotans. In view of the recent history of freight rates in North Dakota and the work which the railroad board has done in this respect, it makes one cisco, newest of Uncle Sam's “treaty cruisers” ofthe 10,000-ton variety, re- ferred to the ship as a “pocket bat- tleship”; and it is worth noticing that that is just about what these new warships are, in spite of the fact that technically they are not battleships at all.

This thought will be fol- lowed immediately by speculation as to whether he may not have known all too well. The recent history of the railroads in this state has been a continual Jess, there is in existence today a na- val armament race, and in it the heavy-duty cruiser is the most im- Portant element. This ship would be unable to fight for a minute against @ dreadnaught; but since the dread- BRONZE OF THE VANISHING INDIAN _GY_FRASER dormant accounts. In most cases the People who opened them have died, and their heirs have never discovered that the money exists. Meanwhile, the accounts are carried forward year after year, interest is compounded and set aside, and the totals grow to the benefit of nobody and to a great deal of inconvenience for the banks themselves. Twelve states have laws empower- ing them to seize dormant accounts after a certain number of years and put the money in the public treasury. This isn't true of New York, how- ever, and the forgotten deposits on the books of banks here have grown to fantastic proportions. The old Seaman’s Savings on lower Wall Street, for instance, has hundreds of such accounts in the names of men who have gone down to the sea and naught has suffered a decline in rela- tive importance, it is the treaty cruiser which would be apt to bear the brunt of the heavy fighting in any naval war now. These ships are cruisers, but they may yet have to fill the role traditionally filled by battleships. succession of applications for rate in- creases and @ continual effort on the part of the railroad board to hold them down. The applications for raises in rates within the state have been filed with the railroad board itself. Those for other boosts have beent presented to the Interstate Commerce commission. In each case the railroads have been represented by skilled attor- neys, accountants and highly paid rate experts. Their sole duty has been to present a convincing case to justi- fy the collection of more money from the pockets of North Dakota's farm- ers and merchants. Through its rate experts and ac- countants the railroad board has been able to present the other side of this Picture. In its hands has been placed the case of the shippers as opposed to the railroads. To it has fallen the duty of defending the people of the state, both producers and consumers, from unjustified freight tariffs. The question at issue very often has ‘been whether one item or a group of items should be raised only a fraction of a cent per hundred pounds. Yet, applied to thé total movement of freight over the period of a year, the amount involved has totalled millions annually. As a result of the governor's veto, the railroads will have all the advant- ages in these affairs in the future. It is not inconceivable that freight costs to North Dakotans may be increased to the tune of several million dollars as a direct result.

It is @ bill both comprehensive and complex and perhaps the safest generalization of its merits is that they will rest with the administration should the bill become the law. The bill is frankly an omnibus measure, in that it includes many varying and some conflicting ideas as to the quickest and surest method of bringing about the desired increase in the price of farm products. It was offered by the president with no guar- antee that it would have this result, but rather in the nature of an experi- ment, which the president is willing to modify or to end if the results do not substantiate the expectations. The bill grants to the secretary of agriculture powers that may rightly be termed dictatorial and it is upon his use of these extraordinary powers that we must depend for success or failure. Powers so great and varied can be used for weal or woe.

Fifty-one readers who had tonsils removed by the old standard method, nearly all under general anesthesia, report unfavorably and declare they'd never go thru with such an opera- tion again, and some of them claim they suffered lasting ill effects from CHAPTER THREE Monday and Friday nights Lily Lou was late getting home.
